Let's Banner! Also, Let's Enormous Television!

Lookie-lookie at the new look of the blog, compliments of the incredibly talented illustrator/designer Steve Dressler. I'd been meaning to spice up the site, and Steve made those dreams a reality.

I also wanted a new icon (that ol' chicken-on-the-go was so 2007), something that stayed with the chicken motif (which is weird, they're not my favorite animal or food... but it feels right for this blog), and I think we're all happy with the kawaii results. Kawaii means cute.

But wait, there's more! Thanks to some help from Sarah's dad at 3 Islands Press, I finally got the Disney Zombies site up and running. The story will begin on Sunday, March 1, when I publish the prologue.

Right now I intend to add a chapter every Sunday and Wednesday... this is a pretty lofty goal, but hopefully I can stick to it. I'm mildly worried because I haven't even read the story since finishing it. I just put the chapters in the order I liked. But I think I can do it, since I'd just have to edit two chapters a week.

Also, Steve did a very different sort of banner for that website, and I present the smaller version to you now:


A far cry from the cute chickens and Engrish, but it accomplishes its goal nicely. I didn't want anything cartoony or bloody letters, since that's not what the story is about, and I like the kawai image of a burning castle. Kawai means disturbing or scary.

So check that out on Sunday.

Also, tonight is Terry Jinn's Enormous Television 7.5 Check that out, too!
