The Pen Monster Blog

I basically have eight months left in my retirement and while I have been spending the previous four months trying to develop some comics two things have become obvious;

The yonkoma wasn't funny and the sci-fi comic would take five years to complete.

So now I'm having a rethink again. I often do my art thinking by poking at older drawings and seeing what can be changed, what should be changed, what should be left alone, and what do I actually like drawing.

I got some ideas but they're vague right now.

Or I might just say, "Fukitall!" and play video games all winter. I have a computer that can run Baldur's Gate now. That should be good way to get my hikikomori on.

The night I moved in I decided to make my apartment look like a crime photo. Pretend there are corpse feet sticking out from behind the bed.

Why? Well mostly because my camera was gathering dust and I wanted to shoot something without going outside during the pandemic. Now that nearly all of the restrictions are lifted I have no excuse to stay at home all weekend.

I stay home anyway because three years of no social contact exploded my worst instincts and turned me into an hikikomori. That's the real crime, amirite?
