Lo, I have been busy. I have lots of good excuses why Chapter 20 isn’t done yet. Honest.
First, I’m putting my talk together for Hugo House’s first writing conference, Finding Your Readers in the 21st Century. I’ll speaking on Saturday, May 22nd on “Publishing on the Web” with Rebecca Agiewich. For those of you who don’t know, Rebecca Agiewich had a fantastic blog called the Breakup Babe that she successfully turned into a novel. I got to meet her the other week to plan our session and her tale was quite interesting. Ironically, she was one of the bloggers I used to read back in 2002 when I was first creating the Heidi character.
Second, I just re-drew the first scene of Heidi book one. I got tired of my worst art being the first thing people saw when they were introduced to Heidi. In time, I think I will slowly re-illustrate most of book one, polishing some of the words along the way. Shoutout to @hypatiadotca for spotting my typo. I manually redid the text instead of copying it from the originals, so at least one mistake was made. As always, if you spot typos, drop me an email or a tweet and let me know.
Lastly, I am actually working on Chapter 20. It’s about half illustrated in roughs and should be done soon.

I'll be speaking at Toorcamp this coming week. It's a technical talk on a very Heidi-like topic - booby-trapping your network.
I know already I'll know already I'll see a few readers there. I'll try to bring along some Heidi swag.

Unfortunately, you have to kill someone to get in. Literally. I've been invited to teach a writing class at Monroe Correctional Complex as part of the Hugo House Prison program. Ain't that a kick in the pants, Heidi in prison! I'm sure new ideas will come out of this. In any case, it's a rare opportunity for a web comic author to get and I'm jumping on it. Gabe and Tycho, eat your heart out.
