Off The Hook

My next graphic novel is coming out in September. It's about Turkmenistan where I was a Peace Corps volunteer and it's called Joe and Azat and it's great. It's being published by NBM and every week (on Monday) I'm doing posts on their blog. The idea is that I will talk about some of the behind the scenes stuff that went into creating the book. Check it out and if you have any questions about the process (or if you've heard me talk about Turkmenistan and you remember some really awesome and funny story that will improve my sales) let me know. I'm making this stuff up as I go, so any feedback would be great.

For My Fan

The drawing I gave the guy wasn't quite as bad as I made it out to be in this comic. More than anything else I just looked stoned. Just totally botched it. But overall it was a good weekend. I gave out a bunch of free samples of my Turkmenistan book which will be coming out in the fall. I sold a bunch of mini-comics. I met a lot of cool people and I came home with a whole big pile of comics and mini-comics that I haven't even had a chance to look at just yet. It was great, but I hope next year there is some air conditioning. I thought I was going to burst into flames at one point.
