‘Still Alive’ by Jonathan Colton, perhaps?

Nov 7th, 2009
by David Faroz Precht.

It has been some time since my last post.

After two computer problems, two visits to the Apple genius bar, being sick for a week, packing, and flying to the other end of the world we’re alive.  And that’s figurative and realistic…or something.

We’re here in Songpa-Gu, Seoul, South Korea settling into our second apartment in a week and trying to rearrange and clean the dust bin that it once was.  Sounds dramatic?  Yeah, we found a computer caked with dust, and five Korean trash bags (they’re small) full of various crap through out the apartment.  Not to mention the odd stuffed animal, dust under the bed, and caked grime on the refrigerator in the laundry room.  If that sounded strange to anyone, you should try coming out here.  Things are different.  Very different.  Shower head attached to the bathroom sink different.

Anyway, since my wife has been preparing to teaching 5- to 12-year-olds English, I’ve been trying to write, research, and read.  The research aspect had been difficult before this move as our internet connection was borderline 1995.

I’m currently working on a submission for an anthology being put out by Reading with Pictures that will feature comics by various well-known comic book writers, artists, and teams.  As soon as we hear more I’ll post something up, especially with information on it’s release date and whether this humble duder will be in it.

Aside from that, it’s been a no stop focus on the two new-ish concepts I’m working on.  One with my good friend Kira and the other remains unlinked to any artists.  So, if you’re interested in drawing a sci-fi-esque book, holler at me.

That’s all for now.  We need to relax after a long day of moving and getting a pay-as-you-go phone.  Take care, calm and resilient readers.  I know I keep claiming that posts will come more often but now that we’re here…they will.  BYE.

    glad to hear the shower head is attached to the sink and that you’re alive.
    but take note! your reading with pictures link is missing an “h” before the ttp.

    Sadly, our new place has a free standing faucet with a shower attached to it.
    Link fixed.
    Hope you are well.
    I love Korea.
