Freedom and Stuff

We had our fourth monthly London Comics meet yesterday, which was cool. With that and several people urging me to stay in the London area, I guess I’ll be looking for somewhere in this vicinity to move to. Where, I’m not sure. Last minute attempts to find a sharer here have failed to elicit any response per se, and I’m sick of being on my own in a place far too large/expensive for one person, so onwards we go.

Sarah, who was at the meet yesterday, has posted her page for the Freedom anthology, which I think is fabulous. Hope you agree.

Life in the Fast Lane, Lemme Tell Ya!

I’ve neglected the blog a bit again lately, but as I’m not getting much feedback off it and things have been fairly busy anyway, frankly, I couldn’t be arsed.

As mentioned last time, Andy came down on the 30th and left on the 4th. It was a good time on the whole. On the Sunday night, you’ll be shocked to hear, we didn’t get an Indian… we went for pizza instead—tuna and jalapenos. Maybe not everyone’s taste!

In the Shadows

Right, my tentative PDF project now has an equally tentative title: Shadows and Reflections. Contents? Arts, media, films, etc. Plus, hopefully, some original comic strips.

I’d like to do at least one issue and see what happens from there. A handful of people are involved, in theory, including my old pal Paul Gravett (now that he’s almost finished his book on Manga!), but it’s early days and we need more contributors on board.

I’m also doing a mini-comic just for the fun of it. The (again) tentative title is Day in the Life. I scrawled a script and drew three panels yesterday. If you don’t know what a mini-comic is: it’s a format that is roughly half A5 size with a single panel per page. It’s a good method for publishing very short stories dirt cheap. I did one about ten years ago, but it was crap! I fancied having another go, so what the hell.
