She could be an older Katharos... You're right, she does look a lot like Claud!

I noticed an actress in a recent episode of Flashpoint, and got around to looking her up tonight. Her name is Tannis Burnett, and it seems she's had roles in a fair number of things, but generally small enough that there's little information about...

I'm so sorry to hear about your diagnosis, Sar. I'm sorry to hear about what you went through with your own mother, and the path that you now face. It's comforting to see how strong your faith is right now, and I hope all of the Xyliacs will join ...

Barb,

Thanks for welcoming me...I wasn't sure where to answer "todays question" but yes I would buy a graphic novel of Xaliatales! I have been following the storyline for about six months now and can't wait for the next page to come up!

Hi Barb! I'm sure you've heard this before, but I just want to tell you that your webcomic is just fantastic! I'm always checking for updates and your artwork is always and inspiration to me!

All the best!

*Huggles* Just wanted to drop by and give you some love from my Wife and I. We still love Xylia and we're still here every week to see more of your fabulous work. Actually, we're usually here several times a week regardless of how often you update :-P

Life is good, I love being married, my wife is awesome. She treats me incredibly well and says that I treat her with the same kind of respect and care. We went to Cuba for our honeymoon! Went snorkeling along some reefs and swam with dolphins!

Thanks again for your help last fall. We didn't win the contest but I still really appreciate what you did for us. Heh, I won't forget that.

Very glad you've found some renewed vigor from the loyalty of your fans. We love what you do and we love you for sharing it with us! *Blinks* It's 7am and I haven't slept yet... and, ya. Brain just froze up on me. Um... not sure what else I was going to say. <_<<br />
I'll try again some other time, heh. :-D Much love Barb!

Ooh, neat new design!
Xylia is like: That's my name, right there! And Claude goes: Hmpf. I have fan-girls.
Sorry, it's late where I am... But the place looks nice!

I need to blog today. Haven't done this in a bit, and as is my MO, I will likely take this post down shortly after posting it...

I'm entering a phase of dastardly poor communication skills. Typical for me in the summer. Edgy, freaked out, and frustrated, in my attempt to be honest and forthright, I often say things that come across wrong, and find myself viewing silence of others as a response to my irritating behavior. Like gas on a fire, this adds to my paranoia.

Yes, I'm rather idiotic. I a… Continue

Team Xylia!

I want to extend a BIG HUGE Thank You to the members of Team Xylia-
The Amazing Kez®- my webmistress - without whom THERE WOULD BE NO XYLIA. There simply wouldn't. I have no clue NONE how to build or maintain a website- and she makes the sites amazing.

Also Josh (Canterrain), who I am thrilled to announce has taken the reins of marketing again and in one week has managed to turn the Xylia ship around from the heading toward icebergs. ^_^

This year, I plan to keep going. I have ha… Continue

The Resolution Blog

New Years is actually one of my favorite times of year because it's like hitting the reboot button on a computer. Things run more smoothly when you shrug off the old files.

The word resolution kind of gets overused, but when you see its synonyms, it's actually a pretty cool word: intention, resolve, decision, intent, aim, plan; commitment, pledge, promise. What's even more cool is when you look at these synonyms of this meaning of resolution : a firm decision to do or noContinue

About the begging

If you've read my blog post on today's update, you will see me begging for money again. Will it come to any good? I don't know. But something needs to happen or I will have to set Xylia aside for a bit.

This year has been touch and go in terms of making it on my own. I started freelancing full time in February. Shortly after that, I totalled my car, gas prices rose to $4.00 + a gallon, and my ex decided to play Kramer vs. Kramer with me including the ridiculous attorney fees that accompa… Continue

Know thyself

I don't know if any of you have ever taken the Jung Typology or Keirsey personality tests, but I have five times in my life over the last twenty years. I must say I find them quite interesting. And no matter what is going on in my life and how much I may think it's effecting my answers and will change the outcome, I always test the same.

I'm an INFP.
-Introvert. A true introvert- this is always my highest score. It always makes the people who saw me jump around on stage and scream… Continue

Neat - a character in a game that breaks the "fourth wall" of the game! I think a few druid characters in Balder's Gate do that as well.
