Friends of the Worm (people)

Chapter 3 of Family Man has begun!

…and there’s a new website!

Change your links, everybody! Family Man now lives on one single website, and that’s http://www.lutherlevy.com. It’ll update there every week, and all the notes and extra features you have come to love (or merely tolerate) live there with it, along with many new bells and whistles and an all-over shinyness.

And a new chapter is off and running, with yet more exciting bunny imagery. Sorry, bunnies of the world; it’s nothing personal.

Happy Thanksgiving to all those of you in the U.S. of A! Now go play.

Oh, Sandahl.

Forget the Pulitzer. The greatest goal of my life is now to be able to do this workout.

West Dingleton's Loss of Humanity

Copyright © 2009 Richard H. Fay

West Dingleton's Loss of Humanity

It all started with a strange cloud,
A nebulous mist of colours
Glowing faintly
In the night.

An aurora in the east
Some suggested.
Electrically charged fog
Others said.
Ambient mood lighting
A few joked.

It descended upon the sleepy town
In a dull rainbow shroud.
Noises were muffled,
Bare flesh
Tingled.
No one worried too much
Until the changes began.

Subtle hints appeared at first,
Crooked eyes,
Drooping lips,
Peculiar warts,
Odd tufts of hair.
Deformities soon multiplied
And grew more and more grotesque.
Limbs twisted,
Noses dropped off,
Mouths expanded into
Gaping maws,
Bulbous lumps of human flesh
Sprouted vestigial limbs.
Their minds remained clear
As their bodies were corrupted.
Tears fell
While tears could still fall.

Word of the calamity soon spread.
Surrounding communities panicked.
The outside world
Shunned the town,
Barricaded roads,
Protected mankind.
Plans were made
To wipe out the creatures,
Destroy the mutations,
Cleanse the land.

The poor people of West Dingleton
Had become something different,
Something monstrous,
Something dangerous,
Something alien,
No longer human.

Or did they?

Holy Smokes, my parent's house is cold! Even for me!
That said, I'm under a bunch of warm blankets, and I suspect that if I really wanted, I could have a pair of incredibly cuddly cats on me as well.
I made it home all right. Mom's doing well and made spaghetti.

I watched tv, which is a custom of mine when I come home, just to remind myself of how much commercials suck.

Made me laugh, though.

Ugh...

I still need to prepare tomorrow's comic, but it's hard to do anything, let alone write or draw, with a congested head.

I need an Alka-Seltzer. And perhaps some tea afterward.

Tortoise or hare?

Want to see when I’ve been drawing? It’s all the flat bits on this “Nano stats” graph. So instead of being a tortoise or a hare, I am some kind of unholy abomination that came from the loins of a hare that got a little drunk by the pond one night. Most scientists agree I should be destroyed.

I have to put away the comic for a couple days so I can catch up on NaNo, but here’s another tiny teaser:

When I break the fourth wall, this is about the only face we see.

Plus, here’s a comic from my friend Audrey. It’s about my pets. And my filthy house. Click to make it bigger!

Holiday Travel

This trip has been really great. Friends are visiting, coming in and out as though the house had a revolving door. Toby has been surrounded by kids, and he's been playing very well with them. Especially Hailee, he seems really attached to her.
It's been super busy as well. Today we have family pictures, and Thanksgiving is coming up in just a short while.
We went out shopping yesterday, and I was spoiled with all kinds of clothes. I definitely feel the love of my parents. It's been great being here and talking to everyone, catching up and getting all the hugs and laughs that we wish we could give all year long.
I am sad that I'm not doing Thanksgiving at home, it is one of my favorite traditions - but being at home this year has been a nice change of pace.

Back to work

Sunday I finished up a coastline that had been left unfinished because of the studio rehab. And yesterday I began work on a second "Mouths of the Ganges River* -- having sold the first one.

I didn't look at pictures of the first one. I just started over with the atlas, and it's interesting how different it is. I could do a whole series just on the Ganges, it's so fluted and detailed.

It's great getting back to work. I've missed it so much.
Tomorrow is the blasted interruption of T-day--and driving down to Bethesda--but Friday's good. And Ben comes home that evening. YAAAY!!
