February & March Life Update! (Patreon)

Hi guys!

Wow, I just now realize that I haven't posted a life update for a few months. So let's dive into all the new things happening.

CALL ME HALLOW is in progress!

I've been working on Call Me Hallow for the last 2 months every day! I started out live-streaming to make sure I kept my butt in my seat and then after a few weeks I realized that I didn't need the motivation anymore. 

I'm happy to say that I now have nearly 60 pages finished. :) I'll be delivering the first three chapters to Macroverse next week for them to convert into the digital format for their app. Hopefully you'll be able to start reading it in a few months. :)

Here are some cool art sample from the pages so far:

This story definitely gets weird fast. I'll keep you updated on the progress and give you guys previews of more pages as I make them. :)

WRITTEN by A.I. (New gag-a-day comic)

Last week I had the sudden idea to try to make a daily webcomic, but have it all written by A.I. (ChatGPT). They say it can't do humor but I had to give it a try and see if anything came out funny. 

I sketched up a few of the A.I. scripts and sent them to my dad who said he would buy a book of these comics. 

Then on a whim I send a few of them to my friend who runs Macroverse and he loved them! I told him I was hoping to draw 100 comics really quick and then release them on social media as an experiment. He offered to do all the social media as well as sell them as NFT's each day and so WRITTEN by A.I. was born... just over a week ago.

And I already have over 70 comics drawn. Here are some of the pages out of my sketch book. I'm drawing about 8 panels a day.

Some of them are actually funny. Some are just strange. And some make no sense. And some seem to be deep. Some of my favorites are when I ask it to write about difficult subjects like God, creativity or determinism. 

Anyway, I understand it's a total gimmick, but I've been really enjoying it. 

You can see the daily comic on Twitter and Instagram here: @WrittenbyAI_ You can buy the NFT's each day too. The links are posted with each comic.

I'm only planning to make 100 of them and see what happens next. :)

COGNITIVE DRAWING!

The books have been printed and bound and are sitting someplace ready to ship. The last I heard, it will be arriving at the fulfillment house in early May now. :/ 

Vacation to the Philippines!

In personal news, I have a big vacation in April (for my birthday) where I will be going to the Philippines for almost 3 weeks to hang out with a friend. I'm very excited to try to surf at Cloud Nine in Siargao and see what the local life is like in Cebu and Manila. 

I might even post some pictures on Instagram too, if you are curious why I'm actually going. @Jason_Brubaker 

That's it for now. I better get back to work because I have a list of things to finish before I leave the country. :)

Thanks again for your support!
