Since I got back from San Diego I've traveled back to Alabama for Kristie's brother's wedding, I've been fighting a nasty cold (a post-San Diego tradition), entertaining guests (my parents came in for an extended weekend), dealing with SCAD paperwork, prepping for classes (I'm re-working a few of the courses I'm teaching) and other such distracting endeavors.
I hope to get as much done on this Moonshine story as I can while I'm out of class. You can see one of the more recent pages on the desk above. I've got another project that I'm hoping to start up with a friend in Alabama. I need something to give me a break on this big project. I don't realistically see myself finishing it for at least a year or two. I'm counting on at least one more summer to work on it, maybe two. Given that amount of time, I imagine that a side project would keep me sane. I'm really looking forward to it.
I've read most of the books I got from San Diego. Maybe I will take the time to write a review of one or two of them. I'm back to reading the Cerebus collection - which I hope to finish before classes being. I'm up to Rick's Story, so I don't know if I'll make it but I'll get close.
Kristie's still plugging away on stuff for her show. We're both sick of this summer heat. I hope to find myself in Atlanta next summer. I want to teach for a quarter at SCAD-Atlanta. I don't think I'll get a chance to teach the Survey of Sequential Art class here in Savannah any time soon (except as an online class). I think they'd let me teach it up there if I can get enough people to take it. Maybe I could teaching some other basic course up there as well to give Shawn the opportunity to teach something else he'd like to run. I guess we'll see.
I'm officially on Jabber these days under the scad sanctioned id: daduncan@im.scad.edu
