So a few years ago, I read “The Artist’s Way: A Spiritual Path to Higher Creative” by Julia Cameron.  It was one of the many books I have read and try to take bits and pieces of, to improve my art and creativity. One thing I have been focusing on more is the “artist outings”.Continue reading “Artist Outings”

So today is the first day in 31 days I don’t have to look at funding, or work to get funding for our kickstarter.  It’s a moment to relax, but not to stop, making comics for me never stops. I was able to hit my funding goal a day before the kickstarter closed.  And thatContinue reading “The End of a Kickstarter, a moment to relax, then back to making comics!”

So I am in my last few days of my kickstarter, hang on one second I need to refresh my kickstarter page. (Joking)  I feel like I survived the dead zone in the middle, and things are picking up.  I am closing in on 75 percent funded and 130 backers. And feeling pretty good, thisContinue reading “The Last Few Crazy Days of Running a Kickstarter!”

Hey Everyone, So last weekend was Baltimore Comic Con,  I think this is my 5th year, but this year was a step up in my networking, pitching, getting feedback (oh and buying a ton of cool artwork.) I was able to hand out two samples of ashcans of my two kickstarters, Digital Forever and Multi-Larceny.Continue reading “Baltimore Comic Con Kickstarter Ups and Downs”

So I was on the Spoiler Country Podcast, as an interviewee.  That was a first, we have over sixty episodes of the Constructing Comics Podcast, and I have either been the interviewer or co-hosting.  This was the first time being on the spot and having to keep the conversation flowing.  I was pretty nervous, IContinue reading “First Time Being a Guest on a Podcast!”

5 day’s ago I launched my 3rd Kickstarter for “The Reset” There is excitement of the launch and the joy of that notification you have a new backer. But there is also the dread and panic when it seems to stall out. I am going to be a little honest here in this post, IContinue reading “The Ups and Downs of Running a Kickstarter”

My Comics Experience course on writing a one shot is nearly at it’s last session.  Our assignment is to add dialogue to our 20 page stories.  I have most of it done, but I few pages to go.  And I planing on doing a lot editing (another thing I need to improve on,  I loveContinue reading “Writing Dialogue”

Continuing my class with Comics Experience we had a more of an art focused session, as a writing course you might feel that this was a bit strange.  But it was two fold, one to allow us as writers a better understanding of the terms, so we can communicate what we hope to tell withContinue reading “Using Different Panels for Contrast”

I tend to be a concept type of creator.  On that’s a cool idea, or concept I could make a comic about that.  But I have realized that I need to get better a character development.  I  am mid way through my Comics Experience class on “Writing the perfect one shot”. We are to write aContinue reading “Subtext”

So I am 3 month’s into my 6 month Mastermind with the great folks at Comixlaunch.  And I have been on two hot seats. I am not normally a guy who likes to be in the spotlight.  I am kind of an introverted.  But these hot seats are forcing me to be in that spotlight.Continue reading “Hot Seats”
