For anyone who cares: Red String is doing a fanart contest, and the theme is Fairy Tales. So I'm working on some pieces, in the hopes of winning something. >_< Greedy Mineka. Anyway, I just finished a piece based off of Little Red Riding Hood, it's in the fan-art section if anyone wants to see it.
And to fill up space, I'm going to recommend people watch the Avril Lavigne (I know, I know) music video "Girlfriend" as it oddly reminds me of what might happen between Yitsana and Litalra in a similar circumstance.

Chapter Four is coming to an End!
So, I had come to the conclusion chapter four was getting waaaaaaaaay to long. I think it's going to beat out one (which was also way to long for my liking) in length. So to preserve my sanity, in that the silly chapter doesn't reach insane proportions. I decided to split it. What does this mean? You get an extra week of colour comics, of course. There's just one problem.
Where I chose to axe the chapter, is on a Monday. Before now the comic has happily (if accidentally once) fallen on a wednesday, so if leaves friday open for me to talk. But now it's on a Monday. The question I would like to pose to the audience is: What should I do with that single open day? Leave it blank? Put a random picture in there? I don't want to mess with the flow for those who read through the archives.
It's all up to you! Let me know what you would like, and I'll try to accomade you! Comments in the shoutbox or here are fine.
PS- My birthday is on the 14th. *nudge nudge and points towards chibi-Mineka above*.... subtle, ain't I?

New stuff on the fan-art page!
April 27th was Quinn, of GeekBlathers birthday. Kara, of GeekBlather, as a birthday present asked various people who had submitted fanart previously, if they would make something new for this important day in the life of Quinn. Of course, I said yes. Because..... I like drawing? Course in the "OMG! OMG! OMG! She wants ME to draw QUINN SOMETHING?! OMG OMG OMG!" that ensued, a silly story popped into my head. Which is what ended up coming out.
It's an eleven page partial colour short, of characters from GeekBlather throwing Quinn a surprise party, and the drama that enfolds when a D20 is found in her medicine cabinet. I do wonder how massively off I was in Quinns wardrobe and her apartment at large. But anyway. So, yea, that's in the fan-art section for those interested.
Also, thanks again to those who have donated, there is a list if incentives in the news history for those who are still contemplating seperating with some of their hard earned cash so I can buy a very expensive very...... ewwww burnt popcorn smell! >_< *cough cough* Why does Donald let MC make popcorn? She ALWAYS burns it, and I suffer, hot air rises and all that. Ick! But anyway, ..... very pretty doll from Angell Studio. I'm working on getting money to, so the sign will change as not only donations come in, but also as I get money myself. But I'm babbling! Enjoy the new fanart story!

Info on Donations
Now that the site has had it's over haul. Let me fill you in on the specifics of donations. Just click on the pic on the menu, and it'll send you to paypal. I didn't want to put mini-me all over the place, but the pic seemed rather empty without it. So I apologize, I didn't mean to make it look like I was forcing the issue, it just worked out that way. Righo, on to incentives:
5-10 dollars gets you a copy of the guinea pig story
10.01-25 dollars gets you a copy of the guinea pig story and a copy of windre
25.01-50 dollars gets you those two stories AND a copy of Kenji's Curse: An I'll Never Forget Special, which was written back in 02/03 and is a twenty page comic of how Litalra met Kenji/what happened so long ago.
50+ dollars gets you everything mentioned before and a selection of various pinups of Yitsana and Litalra. I currently have three set to go, and I'm working on some others.
Please feel free to offer me suggestions to sweeten the incentive pot, as it were. I REALLY want a BJD. Thank you everyone who takes the time to read the news, and anyone who has extra pennies lying about that they don't mind donating. I'll be quite now.

What's Coming
Few new things:
1. I'm finally feeling back to normal! After Anime Boston I was downed with the vile flu that's been going around. I've been better for I about 1.5 weeks, but have been imitating a slug to make sure I don't have a relapse.
2. The site will be getting totally re-vamped. Either next week or the week following. So be forewarned. Such things I plan to do is brand new map which will include a link to the DitLoaC store (YES! THERE IS a store! It was mentioned a while ago, but never linked. Cause I'm stoopid.), the shoutbox being moved along side the newsbox here, and a donation button which brings us to three....
3. There will be a donation button.... somewhere (still working on it) why? It's the "Buy Mineka a Doll Fund", I'm pathetic, I know. To avoid a lengthy summary, I'll simply say this: Been a fan of BJDs (ball jointed dolls) for more then four years. I am working on saving up the money by making seed bead jewelry and selling it, as well as doll clothing.
There will be incentives for donations in 5, 10 and 25 dollar increments. All digital, and various comics, all of which will be full colour (heck you're paying for something, might as well be coloured, right?)
Depending on the DitLoaC readership response will determine whether I'll keep the doll fund progress updated. Regardless, when I do get her I think I shall be tempted to do a short real-life/manga mesh story. That would be cute, wouldn't it?
Alright. Done jibbering, sorry for taking up so much of your time!

Just so you know...
I wonder if it's really that difficult to scroll down a bit to check if there's new news....but anyway:
1. Since CG didn't update todays page in the fashion I am accustomed to (i.e.-by 12:15 the new page STILL isn't up.) I thought I'd mention there IS a DitLoaC mirror-ish site. http://www.drunkduck.com/Day_in_the_Life_of_a_Cosplayer/ So that if CG crashes, you can still get your DitLoaC fix, even if it doesn't have the same pretty purple layout (that's because DDs html coding makes no sense and doesn't seem to be inclined to alterations.)
2. In regards to Windre/Love and Life of a Guinea Pig, fear not. I might turn them to screentone grey and include those versions in with the finished DitLoaC book. I emphasise the MIGHT. It all depends on how I feel and how many side stories I end up doing for the book, whether or not I'll want to make it thicker by adding those two to it.
Anyway, that's all. Now to finish packing for AB.

New Update
It's been over a month, and the tally is in: No Windre or Guinea pig stories. Kinda sad, that out of the supposed hundred readers I have...... only four of which chose to write me. Ah well.
This is more about that I will be at Anime Boston this year, not in the artists alley (which I would so love to do, but never have enough stuff), but I can generally be found in the masqurade photography suite if anyone wants to drop by. Righto, so I'll be around during that time, but not stalkerish around that I usally am when I'm at home. So if you're going to bash DitLoaC, next tuesday->tuesday is the best time to do it!
