Still though, we try to do what we can, and since getting back I've made Progress. Winz finally came through with my Not Dying Funds, and today I hung out with Beth and planned a webcomic project that's fairly exciting. I'm going to be using my old homebrew RPG that we named Conveniently Far Future as the setting, and it'll be the misadventures of a small crew who are cruising around space in a stolen 6 trillion dollar stealth ship. Influences will include Blake's 7, Firefly and Fifth Element, and hopefully I'll be working with a handful of other artists so we can have a rotating visual appearance with me writing the comic.
Work wise, I've been applying for many and varied jobs, both design and menial. Soon I'll be able to actually print off my portfolio, which will mean design company door knocking (aaagh, gibber!) and being able to talk to high brow professional types who can sneer at my meagre offerings in person. Tomorrow I'm heading to Beth's old photographic shop who might be after employees, as well as taking on a recycling box design project that likely won't pay much, but hey it's creative and gives me something to do.
