We can all stop nervously staring at our clocks, the next Box Peek update is here!
PRODUCTION UPDATE
Despite my three-week caffeine prohibition and eventual Red Bull lifetime ban, it was a pretty productive month. It did however get a little slow at the end here. I wrapped up the snipping for Episode 8, so that's now ready to start shooting. Episode 9's art is complete, with the exception of this one tricky visual element I've been trying to crack all month and I st...

That's a wrap on Easy Livin'! Strange to be a spectator the whole time. While the boys take a day or two to catch up on sleep, it's another quick text-edition of Cup of Jones. There are fewer questions than in a typical episode, which leads me to believe people are saving their big comments for the regular format to return. For now, read, allies, READ!
