Conventions, Jobs, and Finished Business!
I seriously cleaned this journal because I needed to resist the temptation of putting too much raw impulse into it.
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! PLUS,
I will be streaming at twitch.tv/supergoldenknight on Saturday September 13 at 12:30PM Eastern Time!
I also forgot one point. I am usually completely A-OK with disagreements, but in this exceptional case, I have been saying, "And if you disagree with me, then to hell with you." That is because I know myself absolutely and completely without even the faintest sliver of doubt, so what I say about myself should be considered as true as law or science.
I have won because I refuse to be remembered as "that guy who got mistaken for a monster," and instead remembered as "that guy who puts on an awesome show that everybody loves!"
So, how can I make such a bold declaration? Well, let's just say as I have learned from past mistakes and swear never again to said mistakes, I have cleansed myself. 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 30 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), a quote 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. And about my relationship with Amanda/Mandy? Let's just say the constant silence is devastating me, and leave it at that!
I will warmly welcome her back when/if she speaks to me again, but until then, she's in the past.
And one last nail in the coffin for my former bothers:
To tie up
everything, the past has now been solidified in a way that can not hurt me. Everything up to this point has been done by someone I am no longer. I put the past behind to reset and march into the future. It does not matter whether I march alone, or if my lover-partner is by my side (and believe me, I
desperately want her by my side), or if I have a legion of fans following my lead, or some other circumstance. The constant fact is, I eagerly march into the future. While I learn from history, the past is no more.
