Hey people,

I just wanted to use my journal to thank everyone for faving my work recently. I'd like to thank everyone personally, but hey... There's only 24 hours in a day..

Furthermore.. As you all can see, my poster is finished. Very happy with that! The first issue of my comic is close to completion. So next year, at the Breda comic con here in Holland, we're gonna launch it. Yes, WE... because I won't be there alone. More on that in another journal.

Finally, it's gonna happen! My good friend Sybrand and I booked us two tickets to New York City. So we're gonna spend a week in the big apple!

So, New Yorkers, any good tips for comic book stores or whatever might be interesting to visit apart from the standard tourist crap?

Please everybody, go to [link] and vote for my skatedeck design! It'll only take a second to register and vote. Please, I've never asked you for anything!!

Well, it took me a while, but I'm glad to have completed all seven sins! They're in my gallery as you might have seen. Thanks to everybody who added them to their favourites. I can't thank everyone personally but trust me, I appreciate it very much!

How's everybody doing? I'm taking a well deserved rest from a couple of things and I must say that I'm getting more and more relaxed every day. Struggling with this burnout thing made me realize I'm my worst critic and nothing is ever good enough. Made me change my way of thinking about myself and my work. And taking things a lot easier than before. I'm still sketching and drawing and getting inspired by you guys and other things but it's not all stuff that I want to showcase here.

Other news, the back tattoo is getting near finished. I posted a little picture of it in my gallery for you to see. And I recently decorated my house with two excellent screenprints from Rockin Jellybean and two from Johnny Thief. Two truly amazing artists.

Keep on truckin'
