Time management

I would love to talk about how productive I've been this week but it's Christmas and like everyone else I've been sitting on my backside consuming my own body weight in food, and drinking my fair share of alcoholic beverages. I did however find the time in my not so busy holiday schedule to sit down and do a timetable. "Why" I hear you ask. "Surely it's a pointless exercise in procrastination." Well... yes, I guess it is so why the hell would I waste my time like this? There is some solid reasoning beyond not wanting to do any work at Christmas. For me it acts as a visual kick up the bum. January is really busy for me and I can't afford to switch off, not even for a day otherwise I'll be facing one of those 24 hour marathons to meet the deadline. Insert Danny Glover Lethal Weapon quote here.

If you're wondering about the cartoon I thought I'd be fun to add a illustrated element to the post. An illustration blog which is just type would be like a burger restaurant without burgers. Madness!

Hello

Hello. It's been a bloody age since I was last on here and I know you've all been waiting with baited breath for my next post. Well, rest at ease as after a year and half I am back. Where have I been? Glad you asked! Over the last year I've been really busy working on commissions and as is my way social media tends to take a back seat. I'm trying to get better at this as from a marketing point of view going quiet for over a year isn't great. The plan is to update this blog once a week (every Tuesday) with a new post. I've already got another blog but I felt it made sence having two. One for more business related posts. I.e. What type of marketing I'm having a crack at and how it's panning out. Stuff like that. The other as a check out my work type blog which Tumblr is great for. So that'll be all the work I'm really pleased with mainly personal projects and fun illustrations. Why not follow both! See you next week and have a awesome Christmas!
