Oh golly, I'm just not really all that wonderful at updating this, now am I? Well, here's what's been a' brewin' lately:
Misun Oh (contributor to Best Zine Ever, wife of John Porcelino of King Cat fame) contacted Jonas and I about working on this year's SF Zine Fest, since the prior head honcho had lots of other stuff going on and was bowing out this year; so we are currently on the planning dep't (given the lateness of the whole thing, perhaps "scrambling" dep't might be a better term) for the 2006 event. Right now it looks like we will be doing it in September/October! Fun times... we need lots and lots of exhibitors to sign up, we will have info up on the updated website any day now, so please check it out, sign up, and come to the show!
Elfworld is coming along... Volume One should be out for SPX in October (it better be, I signed up for a table already!). I've been getting all sorts of inquiries about contributing to Vol. 2, and I have a few confirmed contributors already working on stuff!
I have been working pretty dilligently on "Territorial Pissings", my comic about tagging, but lately I've been feeling creatively blocked (having a hard time splicing in all the various themes and what not into the narative)... My goal was to just work on that story and publish it all in one volume in Friends #4 next year, but I think that I'm going to work on a few other stories I have ideas for and serialize them all over the course of several issues. I think that this wil be good for me, as I've sort of been biting off a bit more than I can chew with some of the stories! I'm definitely going to be working on a story about an albino elephant and perhaps a story about the Garden of Eden (in addition to "Territorial Pissings"). This should make for a more regular publishing schedule.
Dan Moynihan's skateboarding anthology Sidewalk Bump #2 will evidently be coming out soon... I can't wait, I really liked the first issue, and of course this one has a pair of stories by me in it!
And... that's it I guess! Seems like a lot from my point of view, but when you write it all down it seems fairly under control!
