The Grand Opening

It's been awhile since I tried anything like this (about eight years, in fact).  It may take me awhile to get in the habit of posting regularly.  Even so, I feel this is something I should try.

First, a little about myself:  My name is Elizabeth Cotrofeld.  I'm a writer and an artist.  I'm in the process of writing and illustrating a webcomic called Cry Havoc, which I plan to make public either in early May or early June, depending on how quickly I'm able to throw a decent amount of backlog and a solid website together.  I'm also working on a novel, but that's still rather nebulous.

I intend for this blog to serve a few purposes.  I'm going to list important updates to Cry Havoc once the site goes public.  I may well post some of my pictures and writing samples, whether they be older pieces or newer ones.  However, I also want to use this blog as a way to address what I feel to be pressing issues, whether they be political, sociological, or personal.

In closing, I'd like to share something amazing:

Dub FX is one of the most talented musical artists I've heard in a long time.  He hails from Australia, and he creates his music using his voice and a Roland Effects & loop pedal.  (For a more detailed explanation/demonstration, check this out.)
