TEOTFW at Bergen Street Comics
This Wednesday, my friend Chuck Forsman had a release party for his new graphic novel, The End of the Fucking World. I’ve been following Chuck’s work since his days at CCS. He’s a unique talent, and he’s contributing a lot to comics (both as a cartoonist and the publisher of Oily Comics). Here are some…

Philly Comic BBQ Recap
I didn’t do so well at the Ridgewood Market. It was basically a flea market in a community center basement, and my stuff just didn’t fit in. Live and  learn! I had a much better time at the Philly Comic BBQ. Not that I sold any books, but I had a good time. It was…

This Weekend: Ridgewood Market and Philly Comic BBQ
It’s gonna be a busy weekend! Tomorrow, fellow cartoonist/crafter Julia Wertz and I are going to sell crafts at the Ridgewood Market. Come out and see us! Ridgewood is my neighborhood–it’s just north of Bushwick, in Queens (but just barely). I’ve been meaning to check out the market since it first opened, but I…

New Work, New Distro
Starting in June, I took on another part-time job. I already have a part-time gig at Desert Island (the best comic book store in the world). I now spend a few days a week in a legal office (one that specified I not name it publicly). I look a junk bond contracts all day. It…

CAKE Recap
If I were to recap CAKE in a just a few words, I’d say: good times, good comics, good people, poor sales. I didn’t make enough money to cover the plane ticket, but that’s my only complaint. The show was very well curated, and I went on a shopping spree! A friend of mine (I…

Free Shipping on New Titles!
I did some number crunching this morning. I’m trying to find out how I can make distribution affordable, which means knowing the true cost of production (down to each staple). To make any profit on Lovf via wholesale distribution, I’m going to have to raise the cover price by a dollar. There’s no way around…

New Comic on Narrative.ly!
I made a short comic about cat sitting, and it’s up on narrative.ly! Did you know I’m a professional cat sitter? I started shortly after arriving in New York. Now I have about 20 semi-regular clients. I’m a cat person, and this help pas the rent. If you’re curious, you can check out my Cateye…

Stumptown Weekend
I didn’t go to the Stumptown Comics Fest this weekend 😦 But Jesse did, and Lovf was for sale! Hazel took these pictures for me. Also pictured is Tom Kaczynski (top)  and Stephen Betts (bottom). Handsome men, all! But I didn’t waste the weekend! I’m working on a new comic. Here’s a picture of me…

Unpronounceable on Narrative.ly
I did something recently that I do rarely: drew for fun and profit. Melissa Mendes is the comics editor at Narrative.ly, and that must be why the quality of their illustration is so high. Go take a look, you’ll see what I mean! Melissa helped me get a little gig illustrating an article by Alissa Fleck about…
