Planet Comicon

I had a great time this past weekend attending Planet Comicon with my Dad, my best friend Doz, my brother Marv and his son-in-law Clay. Got to buy some cool stuff, visit some creator friends and meet Peter and Pants from Comic Geek Speak.

I cam home motivated and inspired to work on my stuff. In addition to the two books I was working on for FCBD I started another book. It may actually take priority over the others for now. At any rate, I should have more than one new book ready for con season. I hope to attend more than a couple in the area this year. I will post the cons that I will be attending once they are confirmed.

Check back soon to see the cover from my next book.

Until then, thanks for looking,
Bill

Is Anybody Out There

Hi Guys,

As you can see, some things have changed around here. First of all, I have updated the design of the ol' blog, I may be making more changes in the coming days and weeks. I am not sure how much I like the new look, so it may not last.

I am actually working on some new things. First I am working on an 8 page comic for my character Bunny and his friend Alice. With a little luck that will be ready in time for Free Comic Book Day which I will be spending at Pop Culture Comix.

In addition, I am also working on a second Gentleman Jack 8 page story. I know that ambition and productivity are things that no one would associate with me. But I am hoping to have that ready by FCBD as well. It will feature and updated look for GJ and I really am making an effort to improve on art from the first book. That one was so rushed that I just could not deliver on the art. I do plan to go back and remaster the first book some time in the future.

Finally, I am launching another blog that will feature of my illustration work and I will have more news on that as it develops. I really want to make a push to do more freelance illustration and the new page will serve as an online portfolio and a place to post news and previews.

That about does it for now. Please check back in a few weeks to see how badly I have failed at all of these new endeavors and to read my really lame excuses for why I failed :P

Thanks for looking,
Bill
