It seems Jay has responded, in his own passive-aggressive manner, by editing his original post. New post now looks like this:
Conventions, Jobs, and Finished Business!
Now that I have
finally recovered from my emotional disturbances and I foiled the bullies plans, I am ready to return to work! My website is refreshed, I am bound to tweak its content to reflect the production status of the third book, and speaking of which, I should be beginning the actual production (drawing) of it either today or tomorrow!
So, how can I make such a bold declaration? Well, as if I have not already closed ancient history several times before, airing all my dirty laundry and vowing to never again commit to anything that could be confused for violation has rendered me cleaned and redeemed in the eyes of the almighty. I am not joking, I feel like a saint as I edit this. At this time, I have turned a new leaf. I am a clean man with all my woes behind me, and there is nothing anybody can do about it. Take my word for it or not, and if not, then to hell with you!
Seriously, I aim to do good as I always have and always will. Sure, we can learn from the past, but 1 or 10 years of nonstop heroism and charity throughout the future can easily compensate for any single imaginable incident. And the more people attack me for wrongs I have righted, the more *they* become wrong. There was a quote that sets the theme for my current state (and if you disagree with it, then to hell with you) from Civilization 5 that was cited to George Bush:
"I think we all agree: the past is over."
I'm sorry I could not attend Baltimore's Comic Convention this year. It was way too expensive and I was still concluding the past period of turmoil. I have a month before I go to Annapolis, though. Yes, Annapolis is holding a convention for October 19, 2014! Details are here:
annapoliscomiccon.com/ I will be showing up to this event, and although I am not counting on my third book being ready for it, I should have it ready enough so that it'll be in post-production (printing) and I have thought about opening up pre-orders for Annapolis when it's showtime. As always, free signatures are offered for anyone who makes the journey to meet me face-to-face!
The final monkey wrench to this is I am also beginning to prepare for searching other conventional jobs, like computer work on job websites. If I am hired - even for part time - then the free time I have will be complicated. Then again, I never use all my time to its fullest anyway, so it might not matter much.
In conclusion, I am going to be busy, so to

If I do get swamped with work before you are able to talk to me (assuming there will ever be the chance to talk "anytime soon"), I might not be available as I should be really rolling before October. And remember, if you have the time to add art to your favorites, you have the time to say, "Stay with me!" Another person did highlight maybe she actually *is* deliberately avoiding me. And this entire time, it has been suspicious to me because I do know she has been able to log onto Deviantart with regular consistency. Baby or no, my philosophy stands:
If there is absolute silence, there is a problem.
To

If you are deliberately avoiding me, it is here that I am calling you out. If I am mistaken, please say so and forgive me. If I am honestly mistaken, I will do everything I can (even physically bend over backwards) to make it up to you. It is no doubt bedtime her time, and even if it does take a whole month as of this writing for things to settle down, I still need some kind of reply eventually, lest it ends up as if we don't exist to each other. Either way, at this immediate moment, here I stand alone and I predict this is the way it will be until I die
