Candi News

Ok, I got super tired of the previous site design already and spend my afternoon and evening redoing things. There are probably a few bugs here and there and I'm going to fix them as I find them. But hopefully the site looks a little cleaner, despite the ads all over the place. Speaking ads, I've placed two Project Wonderful ad boxes on the main (and archive) pages. The boxes labeled "Advertise Here" is open for anyone to bid on.

Hey everyone! I'm back from vacationing. Hope you all had a great week as well. If you wanna hear how the KATG Cruise and the NLOL Vegas trip went check out the new episode of Kelly and I's Apt209 Podcast. Lots of alcohol, sleeping, gambling, and eating. Still haven't recovered from jet lag yet....

2008-08-11T21:21:00.001-07:00

So, it seems like my vacation has been extended for a bit. :) Yay for me, but unfortunately I didn't plan out my comic buffer for the possibility of extra awesome off time. So, there won't be any new comics next week. New comics will be up again on the 25th.

In the meantime, tomorrow Kelly and I should be recording our latest episode of the Apt 209 podcast. We'll be talking about our cruise trip. :D Listen to us at Midnight EST @ Ustream.tv.

2008-08-04T20:31:00.000-07:00

My old roomie, Carolina, is entering a scholarship contest (she's trying get the dough for law school) and needs some youtube views. She's needs a lot of people to watch it by Wednesday. She's an awesome person and it'd be great if the internets can help her out. :D

I'm also going on a cruise this weekend. I haven't been on vacation in a bit. So I'm excited about it. There shouldn't be any delays with the Candi schedule, but if for whatever reason things change, I'll let you all know.

2008-07-07T22:33:00.001-07:00

If I had to end Candi last week, this is what would have happened. :D IRC chats are awesome.

2008-07-02T09:25:00.000-07:00

Holy crap, I missed Candi's anniversary last month. The comic is 4 yrs old now! O_O

The comic is about to get juicy. Man, I hate being mean to my characters.... :( These latest comics are hard to draw.

In the meantime, these are some comics that I have been checking out lately. If I linked a couple of these before, they are just that good. :D

Punch N' Pie: Book Store Drama!
Anders Loves Maria
: Soap Opera. Really frikken pretty. Also, sometimes buttsex.
Octopus Pie Brooklyn drama. Awesome art.
DAR: A Super Girly Top Secret Comic Diary: Journal comic. Really interesting individual.

Fanboys: Videogame strip that I actually can follow.
My Stupid Life: The proposal scene in this comic is my favorite ever.

Allan Comic This kid write a comic about his life that his friends don't know about. Drama starts when they discover it.

Ack busy weekend! Didn't get everything I wanted to do done at all! Ah well, I'll get it done during the week. Gotta work on the comic, a wallpaper, some freelance things, and things that will certainly pop up randomly. Busy, but kinda fun.

For those of you interested on hearing about things going on in my life: On Episode 64 of the Apt 209 Podcast, Kelly and I will carry you--- err...

We also talked about the movie, Forgetting Sarah Marshall, and how it was funnier than we expected.

Our next live show is Thursday, May 1 at Midnight EST on Ustream.tv. Come and join us, its a lot of fun. What else are you doing on a Thursday night anyway? :) (Waiting for the next Candi update, I hope.)

Hey everyone! Hope everyone is having a Happy St. Paddy's. I spent my weekend painting & buying furniture for my new apartment. Sooooo tired. If they are any delays with the comic updating, that would be the reason. I'm trying to avoid this of course, but I figured I'd you guys a heads up.

Also, I got some kick-ass fanart from Eve Z of EvezWorld.com. It made my day! (Well, it made my day along with this really funny pic that Kthsy drew of Sailor Moon and Chibi-moon on DeviantArt.)

I also made the 53 Episode of the Apt 209 Podcast with my buddy, Kelly. We discussed prescription drugs found in drinking water, a woman who was fused to her toilet seat, and attempting to go green for the environment.

2008-03-13T15:06:00.000-07:00

GAH! It's been a super busy month so far. I'm in the process of moving into my new apartment, workin' full time, and still trying to get a bunch of Candi-related things done. It's been a bit stressful, but I think I'm doing alright. :)

Anyways, if anyone is curious about following me around the interwebs, there are several ways to do so.
Livejournal: I usually post artwork and general journal ramblings.
Tumblr: My quickie blog. I post pictures and random things I like on the internet. It's such a fun blogging system. Very easy to use.
Twitter: I just got this. Not sure how I feel about it yet.

And if you have any Candi-related questions or would like to just hang out with some interesting people, please feel free to check out the Candi forum. :)
