The Zombie Designer (or “Pownce on These”)

Note: This post is over a year old. You may want to check later in this blog to see if there is new information.

We’re wrapping up what is proving to be one of our biggest months ever at Circle Six Design. More billable hours, more fun software releases, more blood, sweat and tears all around. It’s going to pay off in the end, I’m certain, but right now I’m a zombie. I’ve never worked so many hours in my life. A man should not work 20 hours a day, and if he does, he should take Sundays off. That’s my new plan, right there. No working more than 15 hours and I get weekends off. So there.

Promo for CenexWe did a job for Cenex Gas Stations that got cut off right before completion. I almost cried. It’s not like I won’t get paid, but it was going to be exposure over the whole Midwest with a Fortune 500 company. They say they love the artwork and are looking forward to working with us again in the future, but for right now… dead in the water.

Jott2iGTD seems to be working well for most people. I have one guy who’s been trying to get in touch with me but I just cannot get an email to go back through to his seemingly valid address. Brian, if you have an alternate address, let me know.

I’ve got a few (read 3) Pownce invites left if anyone is interested. The only requirement is that you actually want to be my friend. Just kidding, you can just use me to get beta invites if you want to…

    If you still got one of them Pownce invites gathering dust I’ll snatch it up Brett. While I don’t exactly need another distraction, I’ve been curious about it from the sideline, and I’m always on the lookout for services that might stick. Hell, I’ll be your friend too.

    Love that Cenex stuff also. I studied post World War II American culture in college and it reminds me a lot of the art/ad posters from that era. Great stuff.

    If you have another Pownce invite it would be nice if you could invite me, too.

    Thanks for everything (especially the very good blog posts). Keep blogging and doing such nice projects!

    The art does indeed look purdy awesome. And I still don’t know what the fack Pownce is… I take it that it’s like Twitter since all the Twitter folks are usin’ it.

    Terrible about the drop of the project, the artwork turned out incredible.

    I am working on a huge project right now for a fortune 500, however since we are being subcontracted through another company I can’t even mention it to anyone. It is killing me inside.

    Glad business is going so well, congratz!

    Thanks for the Pownce invite Brett. I Forgot to come back and let you know I appreciated it, and your quick response. Suppose it’s never to late to say thank you. Hope all’s well in Circle Six Land.
