i spent 8 months on metropolis circuit. as i began to craft a larger narrative and an "episode one" as it were i realized it was far beyond the scope of anything i was reasonably capable of doing by myself. basically, i wasn't willing to dedicate what would certainly be years of my spare time to something that i didn't even fully have fleshed out. it was a smattering of random ideas and inspirations that i was making up as i was going along.

as time went on and i graduated from college, i entered the workforce, and the rest was history. by the time i was back doing my own thing, i had simply moved on

i feel like i had my metropolis circuit/lighthouse girl type project in my mid 20s and after finishing that stuff i feel sorta tapped. it feels like making cool long independant things is something im tapped out on. i feel a considerable urge to keep pushing my abilities but somehow that route just seems kinda done and it sorta feels like i said all the 'angry young man stuff' and now i dont know what else is left to be funny and personal about.  not sure if this is normal for artists getting up there and if there is some sort of plateau to creativity. if so fuck that but at the same time maybe accepting it is how you truly get beyond it and back to improving and inventing cool stuff to be proud of.

maybe zines or something idk but defenitely some sort of challenge of ability and incentive to draw cool shit you could not have before the project necessitating and also it being cool to show friends or on-line people.

I went the freewebs route instead, which I also assume is all or mostly lost and this point

anybody ever use spaceports back in the day? This is where I moved to after leaving angelfire, lured in by their promise of "unlimited space". unfortunately, no archive exists of my spaceports page, and i don't have any locally saved files from it, so i'll have to largely leave this out of my journey to TBA. all i remember is i was here for about 2 years, hung out on their IRC, made a few friends, learned a lot about how to design and maintain a website - really basic stuff like FTP, but angelfire didn't allow you to use things like that, everything was done through the browser.
