Comic school is over...for this time!

It's been almost two months since I created this thing, I figured maybe I should start using it or something. :/

My first year of Malmö Comic School is over. When I first got in I had these delusions of grandeur that I was gonna become a super special awesome comic artist in this one year... which of course I didn't. Still, I have learned a lot and perhaps even improved some. I've learned tons about the business, which I didn't know a thing about before. But most of all, I've just had tons of fun and made great friends. Finally I've found somewhere I really feel like I belong. I know it will be tough, but I now really know the comic business is where I want my future to be.

As for year two of the comic school... well, I haven't got in, atleast not yet. But I'm stupid enough to keep hoping I might. I'm a reserve, you see. Only 8 people got in and about 60 people (from what I've heard) applied, so I guess I shouldn't be too hard on myself (but I'm gonna be anyway). Atleast I managed to get on the reserve list, so if someone turns down their spot, I might still have a chance to get in. I know some (really talented, I might add) people who didn't even become reserves, so I guess at least it's something. And so far I know who 4 of those who got accepted are, so congrats you guys!

If I don't get in... I'm gonna work on the projects I applied with anyway. And I'm gonna keep making fanzines, and keep visiting expos and sell them. And then next year I shall get in!
