/ Wayne: Don't say a word. http://conniptions.org/?20061025 |
| Good Health | H: Wayne can't make it again today, as he has to rush to the Windmill Brixton to play with Vivachi. / H: Yet again I am left holding the fort. / [H stares at sky] / H: Between you and me, I think he drinks too much. http://conniptions.org/?20061027 |
| Alright Already | Wayne: Drink too much, do I? We'll see. / Chicken: It's not exactly that you drink too much... / Chicken: More that you haven't managed to release your CD enough. Yet. / Wayne: You think there's a connection of some sort?
/ Chicken: Could be. Could be... http://conniptions.org/?20061030 |
| NaNoWriMo I | Chicken: I can't believe you are doing Nanowrimo this year. / Chicken: You're skint. The band is nowhere, and you haven't even made a demo CD yet let alone the album. / Chicken: What the hell is wrong with you? / Wayne: Everyone needs a hobby... http://conniptions.org/?20061101 |
| NaNoWriMo II | Chicken: So how's your Nanowrimo going? / Wayne: I'm up to 746 words. / Chicken: You're already way behind schedule.

| NaNoWriMo III | Wayne: Six days in and I'm even more behind schedule. / Wayne: I should be up to 10,000 words today. / Wayne: I'm nowhere near. / Chicken: Maybe you should start a webcomic instead. Or a band. http://conniptions.org/?20061106 |

| NaNoWriMo V | Wayne: I finally finished my first chapter. 2500 words. / Chicken: So, you're a mere 12,500 words behind schedule then. / Wayne: I have a plan.
/ Chicken: What's that? / Wayne: I plan to write the rest of it in prose. And not iambic pentameter.
/ Chicken: That's crazy. But it just might work... http://conniptions.org/?20061110 |
| NaNoWriMo VI | Chicken: You're late with the cartoon. / Chicken: You're way behind on your writing.

/ Wayne: Thanks. http://conniptions.org/?20061113 |
| NaNoWriMo VII | Wayne: November 15th. It's that critical time in any Nanowrimo attempt... / Chicken: You mean the point when the different parts of your novel begin finally to knit together into some kind of coherent whole and at last you feel like maybe you are not just pissing into the wind with it? / Wayne: No. / Wayne:... http://conniptions.org/?20061115 |

| Feeling The Fear | Wayne: I've a recording session tomorrow in Manchester and I'm both excited and scared. / Chicken: Are you worried you won't be up to the job?
/ Wayne: No. / Wayne: It's the 'being at Euston at 8:30am' bit that scares the shit out of me. / Chicken: This is why you are skint and live with your grandmother.
/ Wayne:... http://conniptions.org/?20061127 |
| What Fourth Wall? | H: Wasn't Monday's cartoon a bit on the unwise side? / Wayne: How do you mean? / H: Well... / H: It might make people think you're not reliable... http://conniptions.org/?20061129 |
