New Blog

I'm switching oer to Wordpress, since it's easier to integrate into my website and I like the design aspects more. This one will remain up but will no longer be updated. For new stuff, please visit

JAYSUS!

Man, has this been one productive week/weekend. I blame it fully on the fact that we haven't had regular internet service since around Tuesday. Damn you, person in the building with unlocked WiFi! Get a stronger signal!
Anyway, now that I've totally incriminated myself...
Finished a piece for Paracinema Magazine's (www.paracinema.net) next issue, that's going to be on the cover, apparently. I feel so very accomplished! Can't say a whole Hell of a lot about it, but it's cool (in my totally unbiased opinion), and you should all buy multiple copies when it comes out.
What I CAN talk about is this really awesome idea I've had based off a school assignment given this week (wow, how often does THAT happen?) I've been wanting to do some kinda gimmicky giveaway to send to people or sell, something cool and unique that hopefully people would be into. For my class assignment, I chose to do a graphic novella...thing...that's related to one of my larger stories. Kind of like a mini chapter:

That's not a poorly formatted JPEG. That's actual size. The assignment was to fit our work into a standard-sized matchbox.
So, I'm thinking of developing a series of "Minikomik" (gotta love that faux-Soviet spelling!), complete works around 5-10 pages long, all lovingly shoved in their own matchboxes and reasonably priced.
Oh, and I cheated. The original size of the pages is 3.75x6 inches. I might be insane, and I might love to do miniatures, bu there's no way in Hell I am inking a multipanel page that's only 2 inches high.
