Valentines! Steampunk Chronicle! SFX and more!

(A sensible man would update this blog regularly and with tiny bite-sized portions of information. Ah well, this'll just be one more tally towards the statistical weighting)

There was xmas, there was new years, there was me being a bit lurgified and reading far too much (seriously, my eyes were going fuzzy and I almost kept track of all the sub-plots in game of thrones) and now EVERYTHING is about to start up again. Of which there is a lot. Too much for one blog entry. So try this:

Valentines ecard!
The steampunk chronicle are kindly featuring both my steampunk valentines card designs as ecards! Just follow the link and you can send anachronous messages of affection to … other … people … (it's late, words elude me). Actual physical cards are back from the printer and should be available from the webshop early next week.

SFX weekender 3!

And why am I writing this so late at night? Why because I've just finished packing for the SFX weekender! Should be a hoot, Mav has packed all the port and we're crashing with the lovely Genki Gear guys, oh yeah and there's a massive sci-fi extravaganza! Drop over and see us at the market if you're kicking about.

Right, that'll do for now
laters!

Quickie, mad busy, but if you're about in manchester today then there's a mahoosive alternative/burlesque/steampunk fair on just next to oxford road station, which, as it happens, i and the usual crew will also be attending!

much more news to add, and apologies for the lack of webcomic updates, but for the moment all I probably need to say is WEBSHOP!

On comics and drawing and stuff (part 1)

Thought bubble is this weekend and, along with the tea museum-ening (in the armouries hall! a museum inside a museum! fuck yeah!), I'm touched to have been asked to join the "Everything you ever wanted to know about self-publishing" panel talk by the We Are Words And Picture peoples. It's a nifty little line up of some of the most active small press guys I know including Katie Green, Steve Tanner, Hugh ‘Shug’ Raine, and Andy Sykes. As such, and also because of a couple of polite emails got me pondering stuff, I've recently been contemplating the (cue dramatic thunder) THE VERY NATURE OF SMALL-PRESS COMICS PUBLISHING THEMSELVES! (itself? themself? yeah)

There's a pile of blog-posts I could do on the subject of "how I came to this predicament" and "printers! why some of them and lovely and some of them are just plain baffling" or "mistakes i think i've made" but to begin with I'd just like to re-echo Phil McAndrew's post, cos I think it really gets to the heart of it all:

http://philintheblanks.com/blog/?p=546

Draw. Draw more. Not just draw final things but sketch and plot and play with ideas (Currently I'm thinking about zeppelin pirates and I've about 6 ideas as to how the strip works and I'm torn between the first one i came up with last night and the one i thought of when i woke up this morning. Arrr). Try out new things but generally have fun (when the lack of sleep kicks in I have considered that the word "fun" isn't quite right at times, maybe "satisfaction" "contentment" but moreover some word meaning "a tiny nugget of joy"), because if you end up doing this as a living and you don't have fun then you may as well get a job doing anything else that isn't fun but which will leave you with spare time to draw the stuff that is fun. Is all to do with the fun-optimisation I reckon.

So, back from a lovely time down at the MCM in london, good to see the comics & steampunk guys and a delight to be at White Mischief again (and what a line up! Mavis can't stop humming "we're doing it for the whigs", but if he has stopped and reads this I'm sure it'll set him off again. Mwahahaha).

Home now and packing for the Whitby Goth Weekend (was a shame to miss last week's but we are blessed with a profusion of goth-ly weekends in whitby this year), will doubtless see many of you there, armed with copies of the inaugural Steampunk Literary Review and fetishman #14. Right, back to the do-ening
