Lo tome prestado del buen CG Campillo y aplica a todas las actividades creativas
if it doesn’t come bursting out of you
in spite of everything,
don’t do it.
unless it comes unasked out of your
heart and your mind and your mouth
and your gut,
don’t do it.
if you have to sit for hours
staring at your computer screen
or hunched over your
typewriter
searching for words,
don’t do it.
if you’re doing it for money or
fame,
don’t do it.
if you’re doing it because you want
women in your bed,
don’t do it.
if you have to sit there and
rewrite it again and again,
don’t do it.
if it’s hard work just thinking about doing it,
don’t do it.
if you’re trying to write like somebody
else,
forget about it.
if you have to wait for it to roar out of
you,
then wait patiently.
if it never does roar out of you,
do something else.
if you first have to read it to your wife
or your girlfriend or your boyfriend
or your parents or to anybody at all,
you’re not ready.
don’t be like so many writers,
don’t be like so many thousands of
people who call themselves writers,
don’t be dull and boring and
pretentious, don’t be consumed with self-
love.
the libraries of the world have
yawned themselves to
sleep
over your kind.
don’t add to that.
don’t do it.
unless it comes out of
your soul like a rocket,
unless being still would
drive you to madness or
suicide or murder,
don’t do it.
unless the sun inside you is
burning your gut,
don’t do it.
when it is truly time,
and if you have been chosen,
it will do it by
itself and it will keep on doing it
until you die or it dies in you.
there is no other way.
and there never was.

Comics cortos y muy buenos
Una de las razones del horrible abandono de ponchorama es… un xbox 360, y para acabarla… una subscripcion a xbox live. Pero no hay mal que por bien no venga y a insistencia de D. estoy a punto de comprar Castle Crashers.
Un juego independiente hecho en flash, con una musica excelente y un diseño del muy aptamente nombrado Dan Paladin.

Comic de un par de creativos en una agencia de publicidad
Together, Graham and Jamie are a senior creative team at one of Canada’s largest advertising agencies. The only thing they have in common is a passion for great work. And porn. They both like porn.
Like you don’t.
What the hell is this?
Words & Pictures is an online comic strip about the adventures of a creative team in a large advertising agency. Too stupid to create avatars that would give us plausible deniability, everything in the comic is 100% true — with the notable exception of anything that would make us look bad or get us sued. That stuff’s made up. New strips are posted every Monday.
