Romance in the Asylum

What happened to Asylum_360?

Why haven't there been any updates?
Frustration, mostly. I'm not happy with the way the series story was going and feel as if I backed myself into a corner. That's pretty much why "Carter's Story" hasn't been updated in over a year.
Another reason I haven't been updating is because I feel that my artistic abilities have stagnated and I have about five years of bad habits to fix. This means I'm probably going to have to take some courses to refresh myself on all the fundamentals of drawing, all the basics like perspective, anatomy, textures... all the stuff I should have learnt and practiced years ago.

As far as immediate-future updates are concerned, I might just be doing some drawing exercises. I'm starting to enjoy using color, which is something that's always been intimidating to me (Even as a child I had a real aversion to pencil crayons. What kind of artist doesn't know how to color with pencil crayons?).
Maybe I'll do more "unrelated" posts as I have more freedom to make funny looking, single image artistic crap.
I might be doing a fair bit of that this year instead of coherant comics, but it's hard to say as my mood swings manicly and everyday I have a "Great new idea" that I loose interest in by the time I get home from work.

Maybe I just need to re-medicate myself.
