By Popular Demand: An Art Process Post!

Hola, Minions! So, with the convention season starting and the release of “Captain Dan vs. The Kraken,” I’ve been asked to write up a blog post explaining how I drew the arts for the new book. Now, I don’t often do this kind of thing (and I didn’t plan ahead for this one,) so bear…

BUY THIS BOOK!

Captain Dan vs. the Kraken is unleashed upon an unsuspecting world!

2012 – The Conventioning Issue 1 – Wondercon

Sorry about missing last week’s update, folks; convention season has officially started. Last week I was in Anaheim, CA for Wondercon and let me just start off my saying: WHOA! I came to Wondercon with a blank slate, not having ever done the show before and knowing that it was moving to a different city…

Convention Appearances – 2012

Hola, Minions! So, I talk a LOT about convention season on here (it’s either looming, coming up, going on, just about over or done all over this blog), so I thought I might take a moment and tell you all the shows we have planned for this year. March 16-18, 2012 – WonderCon – Anaheim…

Up to here

As you probably know, if you’ve been following me here or on twitter, the past few weeks have been completely taken over by work on my next book, Captain Dan vs. The Kraken. Well, good news on that front: I’m done! (with the artwork, at any rate) YAY! So, let me regale you with a…

If you follow my FB, Tumblr and Twitter pages then you know that today I have big news. (And if you don’t, why not? ;p) Today, I’d like to announce my candidacy for Pres… Oh wait. I’m getting ahead of myself. I can’t do that for a minimum of 5 more years. No, what I’d…

There and back again

Howdy, Minions! I am sad to report that I do not have much to report this week. I know, I know – I’m sad, too. This week was a week of playing catch up, trying to get ahead on this book we’re working on, in addition to other projects. This week, I did finish up…

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…
