Apparently, I never updated about the fact that I sprained my wrist several weeks back. (Story here if you want the deets.) But, I did, and now it’s healed to the point that I can get back to drawing. I’m still having some issues with the tendon in my thumb, but I can at least hold the effin’ pencil now.
Of course, that doesn’t help the fact that I’m now three weeks out of practice, and therefore everything I draw right now is coming up like crap. So I’m working on a bunch of practice drawings before going back to comic art, not only because it helps me re-train myself to draw, but it also acts like a physical therapy for the afore-mentioned tendon issue. =P But worry not, my dear readers, for there are arts being made, and comics being plotted out! I just gotta get them to actually look right…
Until then, enjoy my…ranting? =\

…All not updating this site and whatnot. 
I guess I should start this off by saying that despite comments left in my previous blog and on my forum (and on my Wikifur article, for that matter), I am not dead. Nor do I plan to be any time in the near future. I’m not going into details, but the situation was taken care of, and hopefully, we won’t have any more scares like that in the future.
But now let’s talk about site updating. As I type this, I’m planning and working on new comics. Okay, it’s more like *types a little* *stops to work on comic* *types a little more* *stops to work on comic more*, but you get the idea. 
I think my motivation to do this went way up today when I logged into my Zazzle store and discovered that someone bought the Arjur’s Epic Quote Mug that I made way back after the first comic and almost forgot about. Funny how the first product I make becomes the first product I sell. ^_^ After discovering this, I promptly did the following:
1) Fell over
2) Died
3) Came back to life
4) Was happy that I have a full $1.82 credited to my Zazzle account =3
I must celebrate this success somehow. I’ll find a way.
Speaking of updates and my store, I really have to give the store link on this site a major overhaul. It needs to be more organized, and I have to update the new stuff I’ve since added, like the variety of items featuring a cute picture of Raenur and Ferim. (Yes, each word is a different link.) I’ll be working on that, so don’t be surprised if the appearance of the store page looks dramatically different all of a sudden. 
And with that, I’m off to draw some more!

Yesterday marked the one year anniversary of the first Ralynkei comic ever posted! We haven’t gotten all that far since then( 
), but this is a new year with new opportunities! Let’s see how well I can do the second time around!

I’ve given FireForumz enough time, and they still haven’t come back. So I’ve decided to move on. Welcome, now to the third incarnation of the Ralynkei forums, this time hosted by Forumotion! With any luck, it won’t explode on me this time.

I’m revamping the look of the site yet again. Website maintaining is an ever-changing progress. Not only has the store been remade, but I’ve also cleaned up the Navigation links on the sidebar. You don’t have to go to a separate page to click on the weblistings links, so you can vote all you want from the main page!
Also, I now have a link to my Zazzle store. Not only can you see non-Ralynkei products (should I ever make them. ), but you can check out new products, like the bumper sticker and magnet I created, before I update the store to show them!
And, as some of you have noticed, I now have “TwitNews”–a.k.a. Twitter updates–located on the sidebar. This makes it easier to update everyone on the site (and, to some extent, what I’m up to) without having to post new entries every time. And since I have it linked up to my phone, I don’t even have to be online to update it!
And since I actually have today off of work (how did that happen? 
), that gives me more comic-making time! I’m going to dedicate as much of today to comic drawing as I can, and hopefully, I can have new ones posted in the next couple of days.
One final note: The forums should be coming back soon. Fireforumz just bought new servers, and is in the process of updating the entire site. Hopefully, once that’s done, we can get the community started again!
I’ll keep everyone posted!

I remodeled Ralynkei’s store, so now the prices are based on each item type, not on each individual one. Looks cleaner that way. And in case you were wondering why the “Arjur’s Epic Story” shirt costs $25.05, it’s because Zazzle made me tack on the extra five cents…But on the men’s shirt only. You save a nickel by getting a women’s shirt.
I’ll be adding more stuff in there soon, but I’m concentrating on comics right now. I did, however, make some stickers you can use to advertise the site. Feel free to get some and stick ‘em places!
Until next time!

Ever since I got this third job, my life’s been kinda crazy…Actually, scratch that. My life’s been outright insane. 
I’ve been working 60+ hours a week for several weeks, and as such I rarely get much time to myself. In fact, this week alone, I work something close to 70 hours. It sucks, but I have to get the bills paid somehow. 
I’m still working on comics, as well as the new and improved forum. And yes, I know I’m lazy about taking the forum link off of the navigation section. I don’t plan on having the forums down for much longer, so I never took it down after the last one collapsed.
In any event, keep an eye out for new comics and a new forum. I’m also working on tweaking some of the pages in here, such as expanding the Cast page. I don’t know when I’ll finish that, but it should be soon…assuming my life stops getting in the way.
