4 Days To Go Until SBP!

Because I'm having so much fun, the week's going very quickly - and there's 4 days to go until Seattle's Big Party already. I've uploaded two new Seattle artworks onto Deviantart - they're called Dawn Seattle and Dusk Seattle (because of their colours).

I don't have school on Friday (because we have half-day on Thursday WHOOHOOO!!!) And I'm really going to go head over heels when the weekend comes, because I'm going to write and draw about Seattle non-stop!!!!

...Well, not non-stop, but LOTS of stories about Seattle.

So Many Seattles...

Because of all the excitement for Seattle's Big Party, I'm going to upload to my Deviantart gallery (http://therealamericanboys.deviantart.com/) LOADS of Seattle artworks. Sorry if I've become a bit obsessed with nudity recently... it's for one of the stories in the comic book, but I haven't come up with a name for it.

Denver And Salt Lake City Up For Adoption!

Today I joined this "create and adopt your own" website, http://www.squiby.net/. I named my account AdoptableAmericanBoys, and I've named my profile page American Adoptables, Inc.

To start, I put up Denver and Salt Lake City (who is not in the first eighteen, he's number 87) for adoption. Making the different stages was fun - I simply drew the pictures with Paint, and made them transparent (the backgrounds of the images) by pasting them into a blank Publisher document, and using the "Set Transparent Color" tool.

Then, I uploaded them to Squiby, and... tada! Two adoptable baby American Boys!

If you're interested in adopting these cute Americans visit my Squiby profile page...

Seattle's Coming...

Just 3 weeks to go before Seattle's Big Party comes... Obviously I've got the list of titles for stories (12 of them; there's going to be more), the promoting poster, and the book spine, with all the necessary logos. But as I'm writing this, there's the possibility of my imagination coming up with even more ideas than could fit in an ordinary American Boys Mini-Story. After all, Seattle is the most popular American Boy, so I'm going to be very excited when the start date comes.

The Internet And Computer Games

Now I've got two laptop computers: one with Windows Vista, and the other with Windows XP. On the XP laptop, I've installed a few games I used to play when I was a kid: Dogz 4 and Creatures (1 and 2). I'm only going to play them if I've got nothing important to do on the Internet, I'm bored on the Internet, or if I just feel like playing them. Of course, I'll still be doing things for the American Boys - I'm definitely going to start on Seattle's Big Party when it comes out.

Seattle Costume (FINISHED VERSION)

Remember I said that my sister was making a Seattle costume for me? I said that it was 80% finished, and all we needed was the cape and the logo. Well, we've got those things now, so the costume is now 100% finished.

New Seattle Outfits (Spring 2010)

Yeah, so basically these are Seattle's new outfits for Spring 2010. True... no more winter!

One Month Till Seattle's Big Party :)

...or one month, three days to be precise. I've already written the list of names for stories that are going to be in the book (some of them; there's going to be more). I just can't wait to get those ideas for the stories out of my head and onto the paper. It's going to be really fun.
