***EDIT 2***
Well, I have nothing journal worthy for a new entry, so another edit here. I'll be streaming again for a bit, starting in about five minutes. So feel free to drop in for some really boring...dot by dot action. @.@ Click Here

Of course, I'll be playing lots of TBM for your enjoyment, it makes the dots more interesting. XD

***END EDIT***


So first up for this entry, I've starting dabbling in streaming. More specifically, streaming my work process. I'm still working out the kinks, because you see, I work on a Mac and use dual monitors. This is, apparently, one of the worst things a human being can ever do. Or so the various streaming sites try to make me believe, because none will innately support the combination. Thanks to some third party applications, and forcing them into the normal stream framework, though, I've managed to get it to work. The third party application only supports full screen, or screen selection, though, and while a solid application, I'm still trying to work on getting a good size for the resolution as it's somewhat hard to see everything with the current setup. I really wish I could get it to follow my cursor, but I'll do more research in my free time.

Minor kinks aside, the stream does work. I've had a friend test it out for me, as we made fun of the picture I was working on, and I blew his eardrums out with random music(Hurray for throwing down Stolen Babies at the most unexpected times. Advant-Garde metal ftw!). Anyway, if you're interested, I'll be playing around with it for a while after posting this journal. I'm also going to add a small section on my projects bubble on my main page which I'll keep updated with whether I'm streaming or not. Alas, I have no real schedule to throw out there, so if I'm starting something big I'll post an update, but for the smaller, less time consuming things, I'll simply update the project bubble. For now, the link is here.<-Click it, and feel free to drop in out of curiosity, or to torment me, it's all welcome!

Second, classes have begun for me. Currently I'm in a simple research class that, well, serves to raise my GPA and that's about it, haha. Suffice to say, it's rather boring, and has one of the most painful reads I've come across in a long time for a course book, but hey, it's not all too hard. Unfortunately it is an APA writing based class though, which means there will be a lot of really tedious writing before it is complete, but so long as I get my grade, who cares!

Online classes aren't too bad. They have their advantages, and disadvantages. One of the larger disadvantages is I don't feel nearly as engaged as I did on campus, but I have more free time with which to do other things, and I'm saving a metric ton on living expenses.

Lastly, I'm continuing my work on Lilith's Flower. Things are going pretty well, though I do wish I could be farther along with it than I am. The first draft of chapter 1 is up here on deviantart, and I'm well into chapter 2. The story itself has already gone through a number of evolutions, and I think it has a lot of potential, and remains one of my better writing pieces so far. I suppose that proves I'm improving, but of course, I still lack confidence. The art half of the story is still in heavy, heavy pre-production. I'm still fine tuning the style, working out how to adapt my coloring style, and trying to get faster, and more consistent with producing the imagery. As a deadline, early December seems a tad extreme, especially because the story is going to be a bit longer than anticipated, so I'm having to push that back. January of February seem far more likely at this point, but I'll try very hard to be quick about it.

In conclusion, Demon's Souls New Game+ is freaking brutal. Your first cycle is laughably easy compared to the insanity of cycle two and on. I barely cleared the Tower Knight today, after being one shotted by him several times. So PS3 owners, remember, "True Demon's Souls Starts here." really applies to NG+.
