Hey busboy, how goes things? Is the Cafe still in operation?

Well, I just thought I'd pop in and catch people up on my Moonlight Motel project.

In the past two years, I have been attempting to relocate permanently to Austin, TX. However, between quitting my job and actually moving, my father was diagnosed with Leukemia. I ended up spending the past two years traveling back and forth between Austin and my parents' town, and to other places as well, taking my father to hospitals here and here and my mom too, as she was diagnosed with cancer shortly after. In a nutshell, though I kept coming back to Austin to stay with my sister and apply for jobs, I rarely even landed an interview. I lost my father last October. My mother was recently cleared of her cancer, and I have been back in Austin for a month or so trying to find a job quick (but, besides drawing, I don't really have any skills, ha, my Bachelor's in Fine Art is no help). As a result of all this though, I haven't yet had a chance to work on the ol' Moonlight Motel graphic novel, though I did manage to do some stuff with the strip.

Yes, Moonlight Motel has an actual website now: http://moonlightmotelcomic.com/  It's a rather simple thing, but I have no html skills at the moment, so I am using the drag and drop option, ha. It's not bad, I just wish I could make more use of the side space and also figure out a way to have reader comments onscreen. I've been trying to post new comics weekly, but with the job search and art commissions and stuff, and other things as well, I am lucky to get two new strips in there a month, but I'm trying to improve on that, and I have been posting "classic" Moonlight Motel strips inbetween, which are new to MOST people anyway, ha. If you like webcomics about werewolves (this is the newspaper comic strip kind; as in, it's a humor strip and not a continuing story in any major way), come check out the site, help me out by clicking on the ads or donating or whatever (yes, there's merchandise too, as a third option to support the site), and let me know what you think with an e-mail or even by posting here. We seem to have a small but growing fanbase thanks largely I'm sure to deviantart.com. Hopefully, the strip will be daily someday, but right now I have to stabilize my income and life first (still sleeping on my sister's floor for now). The Moonlight Motel graphic novel is still in the plan too, of course, and so is bringing back a new and improved Moonlight Movie Show.

Thanks, Busboy. Glad to hear the site is doing well. I tried to find the internet thread, but I don't see it anymore, ha. I posted in the art thread though.

Welcome back!
