Slow

 Things moving slow. I have 17 finished pages for Ateneum4, aim to have 24 before summer. All and all the whole book should be done year from now. Book 5 is in plans but not absolutely necessary. 

Meanwhile I have 4 other books ready and waiting for funding, one very small book that I plan go do during the summer and third book of almost pictureless short stories. 

But things are in a bit of a standstill. 

The English translation of Läskimooses is done, Lola Rogers did an excellent job. Plans to publish exist but no timeline.

Going

 Going to make some additions to Ateneum3, going to continue Ateneum4. Four needs writing, don't have any finished scripts, needs to be done. Three will probably be 72 pages although it was supposed to be 64. At this moment I prefer to draw, so I will. Will draw the back cover and will draw an additional page.

Glanced

 Glanced through Ateneum3, many thing seemed to function quite good, some spots might require SOLUTIONS, or maybe not. When there's a lay-out I'll be wiser. This book will be quite quite different from book 2, as book 2 was different from book 1. 

Am I more confident with this than I was with 2? I don't know. The book was done during a really stressful period of my life and the reviews of book 2 were short, few, and not so sweet. So, we'll see, we'll see...

Good

 Didn't do much good. It was what it was.

Well

 Well, there's really no way A2 could win so called SF award. Easy enough to figure it out. LÄskimooses could've, SR could've, A1 or 4 just barely could've/could. Two reasons I wouldnt mind seeing some my book win: a. I like the cash b. Would be interesting to see whether I really would not accept the price, which has been my general FEEL all these years. Well, we'll never know, will we?

One page

 Theoretically I should be able to do 2, even 3 pages in a week. But with classes and everything else going on one page in a week is realistic. Maybe when the book gets going, but it hasn't. I would prefer to be a bit faster, but apparently not. Thursday I got slowed down with the text, today I just ended up struggling with a doomed panel. Monday I will be able to continue.

 Some mistakes were made, but got the first page of Ateneum4 started. If very lucky, I will finish it today.

Teaching

 Just one of the things I need to stop doing
