There is an automatic redirect in place which I imagine shall exist as long as the site is on this service but you may want to update your bookmarks.
You may remember I started drawing The Hero of Three Faces in a subdirectory of Arthur, King of Time and Space in 2007 because the server space that came with my account at IgLou had run out. I've sometimes wondered in the years since then whether the amount of server space alloted to my account type had expanded, but was never curious enough to actually check. Mucking about today with the new server's control panel to see how it works, I discovered that the existing files only take up about a fifth of what's now allocated. One of the reasons I never looked is because I did't have any ideas for using the space if it was there, but now that I know it's there perhaps I'll come up with something.

Today's the fortieth anniversary of the first of what I'm pleased to call my daily cartoons. Since the end of Arthur, King of Time and Space, I've put in some effort to be able to say, with what I at least consider reasonable certainty, that I've averaged drawing and displaying a cartoon a day since 1976: either carrying them around in blue binders or sketchbooks or posting them on the internet, the stretches of no cartoons compensated for by the stretches of two or more cartoons a day. And at The Hero of Three Faces for the past few months, for the first time since embarrassingly long before the last day of AKOTAS, I've been waking up each day assuming there'll be a new cartoon and most days there actually is. On days when there hasn't been either a new Three Faces or a new Creative Process I've knocked out a sketch and posted it to Tumblr. But you know what, forty years is a lot and I think I've proven anything I wanted to. I'm not going to worry about that any more. So I'm celebrating by taking the day off.

About three weeks ago I got an email at my Arthur, King Of Time And Space address with a subject heading directing it attention of the CEO, and purporting to be from legal counsel of some outfit in China who are interested in registering the domain name arthurkingoftimeandspace.cn and the keyword arthurkingoftimeandspace in China, against the advice of himself their legal counsel since obviously arthurkingoftimeandspace.com is already years in use. Long story short, over the course of three back-and-forths with this supposed legal counsel or his supposed client (good cop-bad cop?), I told them that I'm not a corporation but just this guy drawing cartoons and putting them on the internet, and I have no awareness of or interest in exercising what right I might have to the things they were asking about, especially if it entailed any expenditure to me. I also asked each of them out of curiosity what their interest is, but neither responded to that.
Is this a(n attempted) scam? If so, how is it meant to work, when they pick a mark who has any money? Whether it's a scam or not, am I in any danger of losing what rights I have for not having protected rights I didn't conceive having any use for? At the moment my domain registration should be effective till next May seventh.

Today I miss AKOTAS enough to wonder how the spreadsheet formulas would have to be updated.
There are all those years I skipped over.
The trick may be to get enough distance from AKOTAS so that writing it feels like writing fanfiction.

Reviving AKOTAS as daily gags again is an attractive prospect (assuming any revival), but today I'm thinking no, better some new format.
On the other hand, tryna do AKOTAS as a novel only reminded me that gag panels are my best thing. Hmm.
