To those of you lucky enough to have made it to Comicon, welcome back! I am so jealous of you all. For us normal mortals, last weekend was spent watching live tweets from Comicon or trying to survive the national heat wave striking the country. For me, it was a usual Seattle weather weekend. Cloudy, highs of 60+ degrees etc. I did however finish moving into my new house finally. It has been longer than expected but when it comes to moving you tend to expect to go beyond expectations. The house is brand new, never been lived it. I feel quite blessed and fortunate to have my first home owner experience be in a new home as well. I've lived with my girlfriend for a year before this but she and I now own the home together. Its been a wonderful relationship building experience.
On top of getting a new home, which in its own right takes months of hard work, my girlfriend and I decided that wasn't enough stress. We adopted our first dog together as well. He is a white German Shepard named Yuki. My girlfriend tells me this is the Japanese word for snow. He is a bit of a handful but he is coming around to our way of life. He was adopted from a shelter where his previous owners were rumored to abuse him. This has made our training a bit more difficult but rewarding. You can see Yuki below.
With all that is going on, I am just now getting back to working on my new book. Its been months since I've made any progress. Which led me to the title of this post. It may take me longer to produce this story than I originally thought. I'm ok with it though, the whole purpose was to do this as stress free and professional quality as possible. They say that you can only have two of three of the following when creating something: Done Fast, Done Cheap, Done Well. And as they say time is money, I am opting to let time be the variable in this project.
I have very little to update people on so I thought I would share an answer to a question I've never been asked but always wanted to share. "Eric, what does your work station look like?", Well I'm glad "no one" asked. Because I just moved it I have a whole new set up to my studio. Check it out below:
As you enter the room, you are greeted by a 42inch tv and all the video gaming systems. Very necessary for when the brain is stumped:
To the left of the TV is the sliding glass door to our little back yard:
Going further to the left is the Wall of Computers. This is my girlfriend and I's computer set up. I am on the left with the corner desk:
Back to the door you can see our little love seat for sitting when playing the video games. Also my comic book collection is in there too:
On my desk of course is my collection of Supergirls:
And oh what's this, something I am working on tonight. I wonder what it could be . . .
Well that's all I have for now. I hope you guys enjoyed the update. I'll be commenting more on photos when I can! Great work and I'll touch base soon.
