Put down a plywood floor, and doodled on it with stain. Now it’s covered with all my furniture and a coat of polyurethane.
- patched roof
- reformatted novel per agent’s request
- corresponded concerning business plans for the Cyberpunk Apocalypse writers’ coop
- penciled new Bears in Space comic with Nate McDonough
- updated tumblr
-and it’s only 9pm
I did some work on this video, though it was mostly Nate, but I’ve allso been shipping out the subscriptions and reviewing zines for potential zotm club status.
Here’s a video showing some of the zines subscribers have received. Spread the word: $3.33 per month (shipping included) for an array of strange and exciting material from friends of the Cyberpunk Apocalypse.

So here is the final video for querying agents. We’ll see how it goes. Pass it along if you like it.

I am very excited to say that two versions of an 8 page comic I’ve made will be coming out in the near future in two different anthologies.
The version with the text essay overlay will be coming out from 215 ink and the text free version will be in SOAKED-MOIST from Pat Kain.
Both versions read very differently, and both anthologies promise to reach a totally different audience. But hey, if that audience is you—keep an eye out for both. It’ll be sweet.

Fox god lady? She hasn’t appeared in the story yet…. but she might.
Working on a one pager.
Here’s a rough sample of a video my friend Lewis Lehe is putting together to help me pitch my hybrid novel A Film About Billy. It’s still rough, but I’m very excited. I’ll be sending it out to a handful of carefully selected agents in the near future with my fingers crossed.

Futuristic outfit? I don’t know—that was the idea anyway.
This is more watercolor work. Developing the character Walter for my new hybrid novel. I’m 15000 words into it right now. I havn’t been drawing the comic sections yet—when I come to a section that i think should be comic I just describe it in bold.
With my last novel I was getting ahead of myself and it became a problem. I would have to redraw “finished” comic pages a couple times because the story would change or I’d get better and the early pages looked bad compared to later ones. This time I’m going to write the whole story, pencil it as I do the first rewrite, and then Ink while I do the nitty gritty spelling/gamer editing with one of my people.
But I don’t want my comic skills to get rusty so I’m hoping to do more little paintings, and goofy one pagers.
Gotta keep on’
