Quiet...too quiet, I know...
Where I apologize for taking so long to get my latest newsletter out and hope that some sneak peeks of work in progress and more free comics will make it up to you.
Is it the calm before the (winter) storm? Who knows, but I really hope a writing bonanza storm is brewing. So sorry it’s been so long since I put one of these newsletters out into the world. It’s been a hectic fall…outside of comics, sadly. I did manage to do a couple of local shows since the last newsletter though. I was at Ottawa Comic Con at the EY Centre in early September. Then in late October, I attended the Capital Comic Book Convention at the RA Centre. Books were well-received at both shows and it was nice to see some familiar faces to chat comics and story. Pitches to editors though haven’t been well-received so far this year, which means I keep trying (and trying and trying), while also trying to find some time to come up with some new ideas and pitch proposals. The beat goes on…
Local Library Event…
Super Authors! That’s the name of the event that Mark Shainblum and I will be at, where we will be presenting a chat around comic book writing and our experiences in comics. Location is at the Manotick branch of the Ottawa Public Library. It’s on Saturday, December 7th at 2pm. If you have a couple of hours to spare, register and come on by!
Il Partigiano!
One of the projects I’ve been chipping away at the last little while with fellow writer Marcello Bondi is a modern take of my World War II superhero Il Partigiano, from Dominion Jack’s second story (see Exciting Comics 37 or True Patriot Volume 2) appearance. And I have some preview art pages to share from the first 4 stories completed so far!
Muse’s Motel: Pages 11-15
Muse’s Motel continues with our editor having one strange encounter at a book signing event. By yours truly, Dominic Bercier, Hugh Rookwood, and Steven Legge.
(I’ll add page 10 again to remind everyone where we were at last time, as well…)
That’s it for this time. Hope you enjoyed all the new art and comics! Hope to not take as long next time with a new update!!!
