Ye gods, I'm having a bad month of things. Unfortunately I have injured my right shoulder and, whilst it hasn't incapacitated me entirely, it IS making drawing and using the computer to colour my artwork difficult and painful. To proceed as such would probably cause more injury from which the likelihood of recovery would be considerably lessened. While I get treatment for it I have decided it is indeed time for a short break from tooning and I will take the rest of October all of November off. Sad

As long as the physio goes according to plan I anticipate being back on deck from December. So, sorry about that - no comics for the next month but I'll be using the time to write, etc since that's much less dependant on my right hand...

You and your shoulder are more important than a fantastic twice weekly comic. take your time and best wishes.

thanks for the well wishes. It is quite frustrating to be ham-strung like this just at the point where I was getting to the good part (or at least what I hope is the good part) - but yeah, I think too much drawing would only aggravate the problem and possibly stop me from being able to draw at all.

Make sure you take care of that arm! No sense jeopardizing your ability to draw for a schedule.

Use your teeth. I heard Kirby did that back in the 1950s.

Sadly Kirby was several orders of man greater than I...

UPDATE!: well I got a corticosteroid injection into the problematic muscle and that seems to be making a difference. Fingers crossed it improves... I'm itching to get back to the tooning! In the meantime I am not idle but working on a few Magellan related projects behind the scenes...
