Reading with pictures

I’m very fortunate to be part of a new anthology for the charity Reading With Pictures. I’ve got a 4 page story entitled “One Day with Amy”. It’s a love story!

I’ve got an amazing artist working with me, Daniel Gutowski. I’m really in love with his art and I can’t wait to see what he does with this story!

The whole book is going to be awesome. There are some amazing folks in it and Jill Thompson is doing the cover! It’ll be in the April Previews so keep an eye out. I’ll post up the order code as soon as it’s available.

Also, I’ll have a table at Wizard World Chicago (or Chicago Comiccon…..) this year! I’ll have RWP and Sequential Suicide for sell as well as two of my minicomics! If all goes well I might have the Loose Wires preview by then as well. I’ll be at C2E2, though I won’t have a table. I may have a table at NYCC, it’s up in the air right now. I should know in the next month or so.

oh hell. I’m a professional.

That’s right folks, I’m actually a professional now! My first published work will be available in June. My story, DEATH RATTLE, will appear in SEQUENTIAL SUICIDE: FIRE AND ICE by 803 Studios. Art was provided by Nosochu, a great artist that I hope to work with again in the near future.

I’ll add another post later with details on exactly where and when you can procure a copy of SS.

On a completely unrelated note, I installed windows 7 on my new PC. Really digging it, fast, pretty and intuitive… things I thought I’d never say about a Microsoft OS.

Quick update

Well, it’s been a while since I’ve updated and I hate to see such a stale blog.

So, what am I doing now? Well I’m right in the middle of scripting an OGN called UNCLE CHARLIE. It’s a sort of true story about mistaken identity, dealing with death, and the impact one person can have on another. It’s coming along really well, should hopefully be done with it in the next week or so.

After that I’m going to work on another story I’ve been throwing around. A real cyberpunk, shadowrun esque update of a classic fairytale. Really looking forward to digging my teeth into that one!

As to mini-a-month. I want to apologize about that but I just can’t see focusing time on that when I have gigs that are getting published. As excited as I was about that project at first, it’s just not feasible. Something I really should have investigated initially. I do still plan on a couple of other minicomics but just not anything on that grand a scale.

Speaking of published. Just a couple of days ago I saw the final pages for KOMORI, the short that will be included in the WORK! anthology. It looks stellar and you should defiantly check out it’s artist A.D. Puchalski! I hope to work with her on a future project as well.

I’ve also been getting pages in on another submission for 803Studios Sequential Suicide. It looks stellar and the artist, Joe Nosochu, is really something else. I think he’ll definitely have a future in the industry.

Alright, that’s enough for now I think. I’ll see you later!

Oh! I’ll be in NY for Comic Con in February. Hit me up for a drink or a chat!

Mini-A-Month

Hey folks,

Just wanted to update you on my new project Mini-A-Month. I’ll be creating a 16 page mini comic each month for the next 12 months. I hope to have all of them collected into one edition by Wizard World Chicago of next year. Check it out and stop by regularly for workblog updates, character designs, script revisions etc. Each comic will be posted in PDF form for you to d/l and print yourself or you can get a signed/numbered copy from me for 2$, the printed copies should be available around the first week or so of each new month.
