The House of Ideas

Time is of the essence.

Lately, me and my high school buddy were back at where we are good at: drawing and writing stories. We actually came up with different stories ranging from fantasy to science fiction and the likes of it. We've been planning to make our comic books since our heydays in high school and we both thought that now is the time to fulfill these prophecies we had for a long time, (prophecies, really?)

But, of course, everything doesn't look easy as it seems, 'cause it demands a lot of dedication, sacrifice, perseverance and faith, as well. Recently, my buddy decided to burn his bridges to achieve his dreams and goals. What i mean is, he decided to resign from his day job to go full-time on his ongoing t-shirt business and, of course, to shift his focus on our plans to have our own comic book company one day. We're still down to a very small percentage on where we want to get to, but we're on our way to get there. Me? I'm still struggling to cope up with my everyday life but i don't mind at all. I'm still here, standing strong and i'm doing my part to contribute to him.

We've housed a lot of ideas to build up on to. Unlike before, we tend to compile a lot of bright ideas, only to let it sink in our memories afterwards. So, we both learned our lesson and we try our best to document every brainstorming sessions we had. We've came up with (i think) four different stories now, but none of them are done completely. We're still trying to make time, as it was our biggest obstacle. Finding time is what we're both craving for, so we can go ahead with our planned projects. It's not an easy task, but it's not impossible to achieve.

We're still short on, almost everything, except piling up ideas, as what i have said earlier. Financially, we're not stable yet, so we have to find ways to finance this mega-project to have it stabilized, so to speak. So, all we can do now is sit back and do the best that we can do to come up with the resources we needed, even if we're miles apart (as i am here in Milan, Italy and he's there in Manila, Philippines). I'm praying and hoping for all the best to come. Maybe, you can pray for us, too..

Good day to all.
