Thirty Reasons to Vote: #1

It’s another thirty-day month, so it’s another #30Inks30Days challenge. Instead of getting overwhelmed with a story, this month I think I’ll offer up thirty (admittedly left-leaning) reasons to cast a vote here in November if you’re a U.S. citizen. 

To everyone who is eligible to vote — whether you see the issues as I do or not — get registered, find out how your state plans to hold your elections, and make a plan to vote.

Ink: Sailor Manyo Yomogi

The Rest of Rivka’s Story

 Well, I’ve had a difficult two months, with my M.E. surging. Hot weather, whether I’m out in it or not, often makes it worse. We seem to be cooling off a bit now, despite the fires here in Colorado. I did finish up Rivka’s story; Meredith is thinking about rounding out Emma’s portion with a story of her own. So for anyone who is wondering how this tale concludes (spoiler: no one dies), read on:

Rivka’s Story #30Inks30Days; 30 June, 2020

For the last day of this round of 30 Inks in 30 Days I’m using Sailor Shikiori Yodaki. September will be the next round, immediately followed, of course, by INKTOBER!

I had hoped to finish this story today, but it seems to have taken on a life of its own. I think it’s close to finished, though. But maybe I ought to apply to write for a soap opera…

Colorverse Spirit (tomorrow will be Opportunity!)

I couldn’t decide whether I liked the golem better as a sketched figure or filled in with some colour, so here she is both ways.

Colorverse Hayabusa (Glistening)

Rivka’s Story #30Inks30days 12 June, 2020

        I decided that I need to move the story along a little more quickly, so there are six pages today. The ink is Colorverse Dark Energy — one perfectly suited for this installation.

Rivka’s Story #30Inks30Days, 8 June, 2020

           I have been having connectivity problems, mostly in my brain. Today I re-learned three things:

  • First, that an iPhone won’t charge unless both ends of the cable are plugged in properly;
  • Second, that e-mail messages won’t get to their recipients unless one hits the “Send” button; and, in a similar vein,
  • Third, that WordPress posts won’t publish themselves. One must actually click on the “Publish” button.
    Apparently I have to do everything around here. But I have now published the missing posts so the story is a little more cohesive.

       And a note on today’s ink, Coloverse Shrodinger. Note that yesterday’s ink was Cat. The two inks are sold as a set. Pretty clever. Oh: and there was no radioactive material in the box.
