Because My Ego Grows Ever Larger. LARGER!!!
I know, I know. Another blog?
I already had one, "T's Teases," which morphed into the subject-specific "Science Fiction Blog," which is now relying increasingly on other hands. (And this is as good a place as any to say that the Science Fiction Blog can still use one or two more dedicated contributors.) That transformation came about because I wanted a blog that was more about subject matter and less about what the author had for breakfast that morning. I've seen enough catblogs to make me hack up a hairball at the self-centeredness of some people.
However, a couple of facts have been brought to my attention. One is, a few people actually look up to me. Strange for me to think that, but it's true: last few years, I've been giving more advice on comics than I've been getting.
Second fact is, I'm doing so many different things right now, I really need a separate soapbox just to make sure people who like my stuff can keep TRACK of me... the completion of current projects, the creation of new ones, the attendance of conventions and the little honorifics like the Websnark Shortbread. 2005 is going to be a very, VERY busy and interesting year. If you want to join my mailing list to keep up with the MOST important stuff, e-mail me.
So, welcome to this little apartment adjoining the life of a comics writer. There's soda and cold pizza in the fridge (no beer, sorry-- this job's risky enough without intoxicants around). Help yourself, pull up a chair, and I'll be with you as soon as I can bring order to these little black patterns dancing across my screen.
Done Today: Drafted a proposal for Antarctic Press, met a representative for a new publisher, and sent out the final interview question for Part 9 of "The History of Online Comics."
