Gearing up For Convention Season!

There's a Staff Meeting for Dragon*Con I'm going to tommorrow... so what better time to update my conventions for the season?

Updated:

• Your Convention Guide to Dragon*Con
  
• Your Convention Guide to Anime Weekend Atlanta
• Dragon*Con vs. Anime Weekend Atlanta -- Who rules the Big Peach?

(There are, unfortunately, some of my lowest-ranked lenses... so they could use the love! I've made a lot of good improvements to them today...)

Making Lenses While Angry WORKS!

Thanks to Hey, MonkeyBrain!, it's easier than ever to make a lens the minute you're incensed about something. In that vein, check out my newest lens:

• Girls' Games SUCK!
  

Granted, I was looking for excuses to make more video gaming lenses, so this works.

Also, I just got my payout for May... a measly fourteen cents. 0.14! I know I won't get paid for this past month's work until August, but STILL, man...

New Lens: My Weight Loss Coach!

Well, I did something I almost never do -- I bought a game without checking the reviews for it online first!

I decided to get My Weight Loss Coach on a whim, and for at least the next couple of weeks, I'm going to be trying it out. I know for optimal results I'll need to be sticking with it a lot longer than that... (and for $40 it better at least be decent)!

Check out the lens; I'll try to keep it updated at least once a day for a while. If nothing else, I needed another Nintendo DS Lens to go with my lens on travel games -- after all, the more lenses I create on related topics like this, the more likely they are to all get traffic together, right?

A New Doodle for Squidoo - Atlanta!

Y'all are lucky I felt like messing around today.

Rather than working on the comic (I'm currently arguing with my main plot putz about the current direction of the next few strips), I felt like doodling today -- Hence the term "Squidoodlist".

So I made this image of Atlanta over here. She's an older character from the first few strips of my comic Last Resort, who's bascially been ignored since, and I felt like I owed her some face time with the new (and infinitely better-looking!) artwork.

You should start seeing her on a bunch of the lenses soon -- So far, I've added her simple, knowledgable face to:

• Morning Coffee - The Simplest Webcomic Utility Ever
• How to Create Your Own Fursona for the Furry Fandom
• How to Make Money off your Online Comic
  

Relevant? Maybe. Better looking for the effort? Certainly.

If I wasn't Addicted to Squidoo Before, I am Now.

Okay, so as of right now, I'm sitting on 28 lenses -- well, 24 "real" lenses, anyway -- and finally taking the "Common Sense" advice of blogging about my Squidoo stuff.

Well, seeing how I care too much to spam my comic readers any more than I already do, I decided taking on one more blog wasn't going to hurt. Worst case scenario, it ends up like my last attempt at having a hobby on the internet.

(Which, strangely, still gets a fair amount of traffic from Squidoo than I expected it to...)

So... this is a first post. It's not much as I don't intend on using the blog for some master plan... aside from becoming a Giant Squid for now. I'm still highly skeptical my ability to make a fair amount of coin from this, but given that I can only do so much for my webcomic each day right now... I'll give it a shot.
