In case anyone is wondering when I'll ever post any worthwhile drawings again, then that person should read Monstrous Regiment soon because I'm working on a whole slew of stuff from that, and I won't be making any concessions in the pronoun gender department. I whipped through that book too quickly last year in my mad Pratchett binge so I'm trying to make up for it this time.

A question for computerly knowledgeable people: If I run Disk Cleanup, and it analyzes for eleven hours but still doesn't get anywhere, should I give up on it, or just let it run? I checked in the task manager and it says 'running,' not 'not responding,' and it looks like it's working in the Processes list. I've never done the Disk Cleanup before [shaaaame] so it's probably got a lot to sift through, but I did just defrag yesterday.

You went through a Pratchett binge too? I just got over one (only because my library at my college is devoid of any good books.). Can't wait to see the new drawings! Monstrous Regiment, I think, is one of the best Discworld books. ^_^

'S funny, the first time I read it, I was rather disapointed (I remember thinking he must be stretching himself thin, as he'd come out with a Tiffany book earlier that year) but on subsequent rereadings I really, really enjoy it. It's just so much unlike any of the other ones.

And yes, binge: when I finished Going Postal last spring, I was reminded what a fabulous author he is, and tore through every one of his books I could get my hands on, reading practically nothing else for the next six months. I'd read them all before but I'd kind of put him aside for year or so, once I'd finished them all, so it was like discovering the series all over again. One of the benefits of having a poor memory for stories... : )
