April 1st Update


I have been traveling for about half a year, and this past friday I finally returned to the Pacific NW. Here's a lovely pic from the last leg of my last flight of my trip, as I oh-so-demurely quaff my apple juice.



I have attended my first Sunday potluck, made two pies, babysat, picked up OTHER people at the airport, taken the bus, eaten a burrito. The list is complete.

Yes-yes, but what about cartooning.

Among other things, I created the premise and core characters for Mike Rouse-Deane's Guest Strip Project, as well as wrote and drew the first strip, main banner, and cast page. Mike Rouse-Deane has done several projects like this for charities. This one benefits the Make-A-Wish foundation. I was happy to contribute. (I hope you do as well, either in cartoons or donations!)

I also did the poster for the upcoming Olympia Comics Fest, which you can see here. I.... should be tabling. Let me get back to you on that one, but I want to. And you should drop by regardless. (But I WILL definitely be tabling at Stumptown in Portland on the 26th-27th).

And last but not least, this week's addition to the Water Street annals, a comic titled Unretractable, which I have nothing to say about. Or too much to put into words.

Oh man, beautiful street sketch! Welcome back to the cold, cold pacific NW. It snowed, rained, and was sunny all in one day up here!

Thanks, Clio!

Yeah. We had marble-sized hail today around 5. Nutty.

I should stop up in Vancouver sometime, I'm so close, and it's such a lovely town.

See you at Stumptown?

Welcome home, dude.

Your poster link has errors. Errors!

Heh. Is it a bad thing that I noticed (and went squee! over) the fact that you had at least two halves of Priuses in those panels?

And is it worse to notice that you seem to have reflected your source photo left-to-right, since the Prius (in the USA and Canada, at least) have the fuel fill on the drivers' side...

Either way, another fine comic. Be well!

That is not a bad thing. I have OCD-like habits too. :)

Glad you liked it. :)

Indifference and paranoia meet. The devil is happy.

Unretractable; I liked it, although I'm not sure why. I hate people like that.

And, natch, I'll be in MO while Stumptown explores a new date slot. Have fun, sell lots. Maybe I'll be back in time to make the Olympia Comics Fest. In theory I should be, but the flip side of that is I'm usually slammed with household stuff for a couple weeks after I get home.

Nice drawing.

I like how food is such a big part of your experience. Pie seems to hold a special place in your world. :-)

By "drawing" I meant "strip."

My brain is a little fried from a long day at work. :-P

By "drawing" or "strip" do you mean this month's comic, or the one for the guest strip project?

You work? When did that happen?

Just thought I'd mention that you got mentioned by one of my favorite fantasy artists/writers; Terry Windling, over at Endicott Studios back on April 1.
You're down near the bottom, with the picture of the pudu. :)
