a week later...

   yeah, so, it's been a week, maybe more...still need to post some pictures. (need learn how) 

   i leaned one thing this past week, i really need to make some ding-dang business cards! Here are two good examples of why.

   Thursday night went out with my old work buddy Josh and got got some drinks at Capital Ale house, as they presented "Hoperation Alpha". It was a festival celebrating "Humulus Lupulus" and featured  over 15 special editions of "intensely hopped-up drafts". If you get a burger at the Main Street location and you want it medium ask for it medium well-done or well-done, ect. My burger had it's own blog called "i'm bleeding all over your french fries". Some of Josh's friends i met over burgers and beers were working on there own line of  Stouts and IPAs and one of them was very interested in packaging. I brought along my sketch book and he seemed really impressed, really he like what he saw and our waiter, who was also an illustrator mentioned he like my work. In conclusion, the moral of the story is if ANY of us had carried business cards this bog would have a few more specifics, rather than "our waiter the illustrator" or "some dudes i met, who brew beer"  

  Saturday i went to the "FantaSci" a Sci Fi convention at the Chesapeake Central Library. I tagged along with Eric Miller, who was showing his short film "Taste of the Blood of Fankenstein" and a preview of his feature length movie "Mark of the Damned". We didn't sell much at all but we had a great time and met a lot of nice folks. The stuff happening at the Chesapeake Central Library keeps me really hopeful for the future of oddball monster/fantasy culture. Once again Eric and I failed to bring business cards of any kind so we'll have to visit Chesapeake again soon or risk being forgotten.

   In other news tonight, i have band practice, need to work on lyrics...

  1. DUDE. Cheap, good-quality business cards at PrintPlace.com. I got some for my editing business back in September: 250 cards for about $25, including shipping, which is insanely cheap compared to most local printers.
