Scandal! Esuna naked in a comic? Good thing all there is so much conveniently-placed steam...
This has been a good weekend for me for some reason. I felt productive. I fixed the problems with the Prevailing Winds site, started a new site design for my dad, and was inspired on how to go about the story arch for Chapter 3 of the comic. I really feel in my element when I'm working on graphics and websites and stories and art. Rather than just watching TV or surfing the net, I'm creating and learning.
A few things of note: Jeff's Birthday is Wednesday. So wish him a happy one! I'll be out of town next weekend to see him, so I'm not sure about what will happen to the comic those days.
Also: Sarah, you seriously need a character name within the next week or so! I've got plans!
I'm planning on going in there and finishing Chainfire tonight. Hopefully I won't be disappointed. I've found that Terry Goodkind's books are a lot easier to stomach if you stop thinking of them as works of fantasy and pretend they're books on philosophy. Then, the page-long, over-answering monologues don't seem out of place. ^_~
The books are based on Objectivism. Have you heard of it? Its the morality of selfishness (though don't be so quick to recoil against that phrase; they don't mean it in the way you think they do... or at least, not exactly). I have an entire book on it over there on my shelf, and really, its more than I could possibly explain or comment on in one post alone. So my question is this: when is selfishness a virtue? Feel free to research this one if you never had the chance to read one of her books.
Its an interesting idea, working toward your own goals, valuing reason above everything, and respecting the dignity of all beings. I'll go ahead and put my two cents in about Ayn Rand... if everyone was as intelligent as her heroes are, Objectivism would be ideal. But, I've never met anyone who could really live up to what she's describing. How unfortunate that compassion is so necessary.
