"Solaris", Strep and More!

Hey all.

As you can tell from my lack of positive sentence structure, I'm not feeling well. I think I might have strep. What the heck, just one out of a million bad days, right? And today's been OK, so it's not like I feel suicidal or anything.

Anyway, some positive news: first two pages of my comic strip are finished. It won't be up on the website for some time though, as there needs to be actual text to read it. Quite happy so far- very visual. Maybe I'll get an Oscar for this- Oh, wait, that's for movies. Never mind.

A movie I've been dying to see called "Solaris" arrived in the post for me (courtesy of Amazon.com), and I am so looking forward to sitting down and watching it. It's in the "1001 Movies" book, and in the Criterion Collection, both of which I adore, so this is a double whammy for me. I'll post a review on my other blog when I've seen it.

So... how're you?

New Book Coming Soon!

Dear family and friends.

I am about to self-publish my own short collection of stories I have written. The book will not be out for a while (Only one of my stories are featured in it so far), but over the years my short fiction will grow, and so this book. Depending on editions, the book will be priced at circa $10-$25.

Spanish Comic Book Help!

Hey all! I just found out that for Spanish, I got a big project due. I have to create a 10+ comic book in spanish (for those that cannot read spanish, I'll post an English version on comicprints.deviantart.com as well as here). Any ideas would really help. I all ready know the plot. My only real idea though is that the comic book will start out real cheesy, like a 1940's DC comic book, and end up dark and gritty (similar to "Sin City"). Any ideas on what type of artwork to do?
