Get the Heck Out of Dodge

Hi Minions! Sorry I missed my update last week. As you know, I spent the last week and a half in Dodge City, Kansas (yes, it is a real place and not just a made-up old west town) with my In-laws, and updating a blog on the ipad is a pain in the buttocks. I…

Frustration and design contests

For this week’s blogpost, I’m posting a couple of open letters that my wife and I recently wrote to the President about his campaign’s “ArtWorks” poster design contest. I’ll also post up a doc format of the letter in case you want to share this on your own blogs and whatnot. Dear Mr. President, Recently…

Top 10, Scmop 10

I guess everyone in the world who has a blog has started posting their “Top 10 lists” or some such thing. Ugh. I’m not gonna do that. So this is a few day’s late, and I apologize for that. Unfortunately, not much happened last week, so there wasn’t much to talk about. Still isn’t I…

That time of the year, again?

So, it’s that time of the year, again. No, not the holidays (although it is indeed THAT), I mean the end of convention season 2011. This year was our biggest yet, with our favorite show Emerald City leading off the season leading into Sakuracon, Stumptown, our triumphant return to Phoenix Comicon after a year away,…

A New Debut or Two! Geek The Halls!

Howdy, Minions! This weekend in Portland is a very special weekend: this weekend in N. Portland is Geek The Halls, a small 2-day geeky art show, put on by the PDX Browncoats. I’m very excited about this show, as this is our first official year showing there. (We were supposed to be there last year,…

Thankfullness and sketchiness!

Howdy, Minions! So, I wanted to start this post off with something cliched like a Black Friday Deal or something, but thought better of it (that’s coming further down, I promise). Instead, I want to talk about you guys and gals and your awesomeness. As I mentioned in past posts, I recently decided to take…

A WILD ANNOUNCEMENT!

UW promo

Hola, Guten Tag and Hello, my lovely Minions! Sorry I’m late this week. I’m getting prepped for Portland Comic Book Show this weekend and I lost all track of time! I’ll try not to make a habit of it. If you’re in the area tomorrow, you should definitely swing by and check out the show….

Blogity blog blog and Thanks!

Howdy Minions! So this week, I was really scraping for an idea to write about. I have some exciting things in the pipeline, but I can’t tell anyone about them yet, so those were out, and to be honest, this week was slow here. But then like a bolt from the blue, an idea hit….

New Store Item! And stuff!

Hola, everybody! Thanks for all the well-wishes last week. I am feeling much better this week and am ready to BLOW YOUR MINDS. Ok, maybe not. But I do have some stuff to share with you! First up, you know that store link up top there? Well, it has all kinds of stuff in it,…

I’m LAME

It has been forever since I updated this thing with stuff about MMP. I’m sorry. There’s been a LOT going on recently, so let’s just get started, shall we? Thing one: I recently quit my dayjob to work full-time at Monkey Minion Press. So, I am now a full-time minion. Which is both freeing and…
