So, quick update.
I'm currently a curriculum developer at iD Tech, writing the 3D Game Design course for this year. If you are 7-17 and attend iD Tech this year and take 3D RPG, you'll be taking my class, that I wrote from the ground up! I'll likely be returning to iD Tech UW as a game design instructor this year, but I'm pursuing more permanent work, so that may change. I'm also doing some work for Microsoft at the moment, so I am very busy!
As for DeviantArt, I'm finding that I really dislike the interface and watch system just in general, and I'm definitely sick of being asked to sell prints or upgrade or whatever. I have an art tumblr that I'm enjoying a lot more, so I might just move over there for a while and/or permanently and let the DA linger until I either bore of it completely or can stand to look at it again.
