Experienced webcomics editor, currently seeking full-time work and working on strange and interesting new things...
Wild day. Quick notes before I'm off to bed.
I totally forgot to mention my dinner with fellow Leesburger and
Science Fiction Blogger, one
Brent P. Newhall. The fact that he's in Leesburg has nothing to do with his SFB status, it's just a really wild coincidence. Only in real life do these things happen. Brent gives a highly flattering account of the coincidence
here and the meal
here. His comic looks highly promising and I hope to see it develop.
Didn't get finished with "Uptown Girl" today, as unexpected circumstances developed. Did get the dialogue finished and finalized the script up to Strip 22. Twenty-six to go. Doable tomorrow, with luck.
Also signed off on the cover for
Penny and Aggie #4. I'll show it to you when I get the script done.
Modern Tales is down, and so Graphic Smash and Faans.com are down. PennyAndAggie.com is not, but its auto-update feature is, so we'll have to do our best to keep updating the strip manually. Punch me on the shoulder if we don't.
About the only upside to the down-time is that it gives you more time to enter the "Caption This" contest in
yesterday's blog entry. Five great entries as I write this.
Thor Thorvaldson, Jr. called me about a new project, which I promise, swear to God, will be the last new project I start until at least two others get finished.
Dave Belmore called me about the HTML work and the fact that we just
have to review
Sin City this Friday, he'll just
die if we don't. (I tease because I wuv, Dave.)
Gisele called about the aforementioned cover and a
free Canadian paper that might be a good fit for
P&A on its way to full-fledged syndication.
And New Jersey called about a job.
I really shouldn't say too much about the job yet. It's not comics. But one critical factor stands out: it is within 15 minutes' driving distance of the Marvel offices and closer to the DC offices.
I am strongly considering. Thanks to Charles Gnilka and Julie Hayman for making this possible.
