BLOG: Checking In
Hey friends! Its been a bit since I’ve wrote a blog, other than ones where I share pages from my comic PLEASANT LIFE! Drops every Monday. I have been updating here and there online but not enough right here, so let’s go!
STARSLAM pages are progressing. I am about 105 pages in right now, looking great! I’m not sure how many pages this thing is gonna be. Right now it seems like about 300. We’ll see though. Its gonna be a big story. But she starts this April right on my Patreon (Click here). Meanwhile the newest long-form erotica comic I just wrapped up on the Patreon called “CONFESSIONS” is now available for all to purchase on my DTCOMICS webstore (you’ll have to create a login there to see the NSFW comics like this one) DTCOMICS Webstore is here: https://site.drivethrucomics.com/browse/pub/14301/phymns
Personal life is going well. I am on a heavy change right now. Literally. At my heaviest weight, I was at about 416. I then dropped down to 280. In the last couple years I’ve ballooned back up to 360. I went to the doctor almost two weeks ago and my A1C numbers was still at a 5.5 (normalish), high protein in my kidneys, which could lead to kidney disease. And my blood pressure is high. That night of my doctor’s visit a close friend of mine revealed to me that he had a heart attack. It has been quite a sobering wake up call for me to take some action for myself. I have been so up and down with my dieting and weight all my life, but now its time to really step up and get it done. So I’ve been eating better and doing small exercises as I could. Lifting weights and what not. The weather is finally changing in Michigan so I will be able to get out and walk again. But I’m happy to report I am now down to 341. Right now its like tossing a chair off the Titanic, but I am on my way. Been eating nothing but veggies, fruits, chicken, protein shakes and counting every calorie. Also only eat from 11-7, thus bringing in some fasting. I’m always thinking about it and I am committed. I tell myself NO all the time! heh… am I finally developing self control?

Its my intention to get down to at least 250. Just being a fat guy, not morbidly obese. I still got my new STAR TREK coat I bought waiting for me to drop weight. I wanna be able to fit comfortably in plane seats for all the travelling I am going to be doing. And I wanna drop the weight before I potentially get to move somewhere new. (Still thinking about Chicago) All future goals to work towards. But the main reason is because I don’t want my kids to visit a gravestone to see their dad. I got all my life to still live and I want every second of it I can get.
The world around us is crazy. It gets one depressed and think whats the point of it all. Its easy to get distracted from the things that truly matter. Art, beauty, knowledge, love, fuzzy animals, truly living. Don’t let the bastards grind you down. Put down the doom scroll and embrace art. Music, a new flick, read that book, make that thing. Get out the muck and get going!
For my part in that, I am trying to entertain everyone everywhere that I can. I’m really working hard to get STARSLAM and PLEASANT LIFE completed. After that, I am considering slowing down on the comics and moving on to my writing (finally) and more painting. I got model kits sitting here waiting too. Movies I haven’t watched. Books I haven’t read. Music still on the shelf waiting. Vidja gamez too. So I’m really looking to hit that finish line in a lot of aspects in my life. I got lots of goals to achieve and achieve them I will. Watch me.
Stay safe and sane out there! —Luvs, T
