Ziggy the Space Tomato: Part 03

Ziggy Returns

The Tomato's battle suit concept, commonly known as 'That-New-Big-Tomato-Looking-Big-Smashy-Thingy'. A nerdish tomato scientist wanted to call it 'The Violaceum' after an ancient, sophisticated yet warlike tomato civilization, but his mates on the design team thought the 'New Big Dwarf' sounded funnier.

The Ziggy story will continue later this week...

Ziggy the Space Tomato: Part 02

Page 2 in the adventures... talk about a slow building story.

Have been reading some of 'The History of Middle Earth' books, which show how Tolkien wrote the LOTR books, and ideas that he considered but didnt get left in, which I find really interesting. It took him something like 12 years to write in his spare time, which is really something. It's inspiring how he had some initial idea of where the story was going, but then let things develop and characters introduce themselves, seemingly without drawing up a detailed character sheet of their backstory, likes, motivations....

Saw Wall-e last night, which was marvellous. I envy the Pixar people...

Ziggy the Space Tomato: Part 01

Here's the first of hopefully many pages of the adventures of Ziggy the Space Tomato!

It seems that my book plan will have to be put on hold for the forseeable, as I've been well occupied lately, and have had other work to focus on. I've also got another ongoing project on the way (which should help pay the bills), so when I can, I'll update here.

Life really is too short.
