MoCCA!

Hey everybody! I'll be in New York at MoCCA Festival selling comics this Saturday and Sunday, 11am to 6pm. It's at the Lexington Ave Armory, 68 Lexington Ave.

I'll be tabling with Dakota McFadzean, Nate Wootters and Dave W. Again, my table is M3, near the back. My buddies from Samandal will also be there, at table L4. Come buy awesome comics from EVERYBODY!

Thesis Packet

I finished up the construction for my thesis packet this past Tuesday!

It's a handmade hardbacked folder. Kind of like a hardback book, but instead of endpapers and signatures, it's got built in pockets which hold the four books that make up my thesis:

1. The Creeping Things

2. The Man Who Built Beirut (with a revised cover and new appendices!)

3. Two Stories (with a slightly modified cover to fit the color scheme)

4. Et Cetera (a collection of freelance and miscellaneous work).

The colors are little washed out in this photo, but believe me, they look preeeeeetty spiffy.

A Secret Plot in Syria

I had another story in Slate! It's about the 1949 coup that sent Syria in decades of political turmoil. Click through here to read it.

Creeping Excerpts

Here are a few excerpts from the finished pages of The Creeping Things. I'll be doing final edits and getting the whole package together in the coming week.



In other news, I was interviewed (along with a bunch of other students) for a New Hampshire Public Radio program on the Center for Cartoon Studies. I also got a cool scholarship courtesy of the pinball machines in CCS' media room! It's been a good week.
