FINISHING THE DAMN THING!
So it's October already and i aonloy realised how close NaNo was until last week. I want to use this years NaNo to edit and COLOUR (!) this story. But in order to do so, I need to finish it before that time.
I am really close to an ending now (I actually know most of the pages and jokes, so this time I am not just thinking it) but my pace has slowed down to one that is only still bearably visible to the human eye.
So maybe I should use the first half of October to finish the damn thing. A page a day, and then two weeks of rest before editing and colouring 4 of 5 pages a day.
But if I do that I will need comments to stay motivated, so it would help if there were readers who wouldn't mind coming in every day for the next two weeks and comment as well...
So what do you guys thing? Anyone up to that? :-)
You know what? If I get a comment today I will post a new page tonight ;-)

Present from the Mosselman
One of my fellow-wrimo's who writes on the NaNo forum under the name Harry Mossel is also a cartoonist-illustrator (http://www.polanimation.nl) and he made me this little Dutch cartoon about my daily cartoons during NaNoWriMo:
*rofl* Thanks, Harry!

Congrats, it's a boy.. (in Dutch)
Sorry for taking so long to past the next page.
Here is a little in-between, a Dutch cartoon I made for someone who delivered her first baby during a heatwave this summer:

Lizzie ill, Lizzie better!
Hi everyone, sorry it took such a long time to post a new page, but my little Lizzie fell ill!
I took her to the vet shortly before the Lowlands festival and it turned out she had Coccidiosis. This is a microscopic parasite that 80% of all bunnies carry in their intestines. Typically, healthy adult animals will be asymptomatic because of their developed immune systems. However, undeveloped immune systems make young bunnies more susceptible. So for small bunnies it can be a deadly illness.
Luckily we caught it very soon, so I got medication for her and thought she would be all right. My neighbour took care of her (and of giving her the medication) while I was at Lowlands, but when I came back, I noticed she was quieter than usual and eating less. During the rest of her 10 day treatment she started eating less and less until I had to force feed her to make sure she would not not develop gastrointestinal stasis, which happens when bunnies stop eating and which can also be deadly. We added another type of medication, but her appetite didn't get any better.
I thought she would start eating again after the medication treatment was done, which was a week ago on Sunday. But she didn't eat on Monday or Tuesday, so I took her to the vet, but he could not find anything and sent me home again. I called him again on Wednesday when she still wasn't eating and said I was exhausted from force-feeding her for a full week and I wanted him to check her teeth (which , if you read my comic, you now know has to be done under general anaesthesia).
He offered to take her into his care to see if he could get her to eat again and said he would check her teeth the next day. But when I called the vet on Thursday he said she started eating again. He kept her until Friday just to be sure, but she got her appetite back and I was able to pick her up again Friday afternoon.
She is eating well and her bowels are healing well too. So it was a bit of a scare and an unwanted trip down memory lane after everything that happened with Zoë the last year of her life, but at least Lizzie got better again.
She is not back yet on the weight she started on two and a half weeks ago, and she still has to make up for two weeks of growth as well, but she is all back to her old self again, running and jumping and peeing on my couch... which I don't mind so much any more at the moment.. and which I covered with a textile shower curtain yesterday so I can just wipe it clean now. ;-)
So that's what I was busy with the past few weeks. Hopefully I will get a little more productive again soon. If not, just start harassing me for new pages in here ;-)

Now that I have bought a playpen for Lizzie made out of metal wire panels that I have used to divide the kitchen from the living room, I can leave her safely to play in the kitchen without having to be there the whole time. So now I can go into my study without feeling guilty anymore about leaving her locked up in her cage the whole time! So I thought it was ABOUT TIME for another page! :-D
So here is page 113:

Lizzie is here!!!
Here she is, my new bunny-baby-girl. A Dutch Mini Lop (Nederlands Hangoor Dwerg) in the colour 'Sallander'. So I named her after Lisbeth Salander, the heroin in the Millennium trilogy by Swedish author Stieg Larsson.
In her travel basket:
Liking her bear:
Discovering her cage:
Discovering the living room:
Loving my home-made bunny-maze!
...but liking it mostly for sitting on and eating it.. :D
or for having a wash...
And she loooooves the play-tunnel I bought her!
Especially for running through it really fast!
What is really strange though, is that I thought she would be beige and brown, but she is much more light and dark grey.. pretty much the exact same colour Zoë was!
So thank god she is a different bunny-breed so at least they wont ever look the same!
She won't let me touch her yet and she runs like hell when I stick my hand out, but she does seek out my company the whole time she is out of her cage. So sweet.. So hopefully she will get used to me and let me pet her soon.
Good news is that she is already house-broken and the place she chose in her new cage for her toilet was... the bunny-toilet! So I didn't have to do anything to teach her! :)
