How do you eat an elephant?
Oct. 16th, 2010 10:33 pmOne bite at a time.
Got the section I sent to the Super back this evening, but I can't bring myself to look at it. I'll deal with it tomorrow when I'm feeling less fragile about the whole thing. For now, off to make a cup of tea and do a bit more writing.
Cripes, I think "one bite at a time" is going to become my new mantra. That, and "just keep swimming". Oh Dory, you are my hero. <3
In other news, I just stumbled across a new webcomic tonight that I really like, called The Less Than Epic Adventures of TJ and Amal. Looks sweet, the artwork is amazing, and I like the characters a lot. From what I've read throughout the page, it looks like the characters - and the story - will have quite a bit of depth, which I appreciate in a webcomic like this. Can't wait to see where it goes.
In the span of a single day, Amal calls off his arranged marriage, comes out to his conservative parents, promptly gets disowned, goes on a bender... and wakes up the next morning to find TJ, a lanky, dreadlocked vagrant, frying eggs and singing Paul Simon in his kitchen.
TJ claims that the two have made a drunken pact to drive all the way from Berkeley to Providence. As it happens, Amal promised his sister he'd be there for her graduation from Brown University. And TJ, well... TJ has his own reasons.
The agreement is simple: Amal does the driving; TJ pays the way - but a 3500 mile journey leaves plenty of time for things to get complicated.
