Hi Bret,

Still enjoying your Plague stories. Thanks for the add. Have a great weekend.

Howdy Mr. Bret,

I'm waiting on two more stories and then we'll have an idea of the full bulk of Knock Knock. Thanks again for setting the bar so high for us with the cover!

Give me another couple weeks and we can post the project everywhere if you're cool with it?

Mr. Jordan,

May the powers that place those wonderful pictures in your head and let them flow down your arm to be 'doodle' upon paper grow stronger and sharper in the New Year.

Here's to a creative and profitable 2008! Keep those talents busy!

Hey, what's up?

Thank you for reviewing my piece, I wrote it when I moved out of my father's house just after my 16th birthday. I am glad that it conveys the emotion that inspired it.

I'm originally from Denison, but I lived pretty much all over central Texas before moving to Italy.

ALEX McVEY

I was just cruising around on the internet yesterday when I ran across a new image by Alex McVey. Of coarse it looked fantastic so I went to his MySpace pictures to see some of his other stuff. Well, I ran into a picture that I have seen at least a dozen times and it stuck in my head because I always thought that it would be perfect for the Prologue of Plague. I clicked off the screen and started thinking about how I will redraw the prologue image and that I wanted it to look something like w

Review: I am Legend

Went with the wife today to see Will Smith in I am Legend. I have the DVDs for the two other movies (The Last Man on Earth starring Vincent Price and The Omega Man starring Charleton Heston) based on Richard Matheson's fantastic book entitled I am Legend and I enjoyed this one most of all. The Last Man on Earth stayed the truest to the novel, but I found the I am

ART YOU'VE PROBABLY ALREADY SEEN BEFORE

I just got finished uploading all of my latest finished stuff here and I figured I would go ahead and post it. Most everyone has probably already seen it all, but I need to get to work on another illustration and Plague and I figured this would be an excellent way to procrastinate. I think I'm all out of excuses after this is posted. So, here it all is:

Storytellers Unplugged

A novel a month?

Well, it’s November again. Halloween is done Thanksgiving is on the way (Pause here, folks, and contemplate what you have to be thankful for. The odds are there’s a good deal going right, even if there’s some negatives out there.) and a plethora of various religious celebrations are eight around the corner. Some of my [...]

The Compounds (and compound-complexes) of Style

Perhaps you believe in the soul. Perhaps you don’t, and only view a living being as a series of biological functions acting in concert.  Under either philosophy, you will view a dead body as different from a living person.  All of the physical components are there, but the core of the individual is gone.

At this [...]

What I Learned From Blogging About the Kindle

Last month, when I finally decided to “come out” about owning a Kindle, I learned two things. One, after reading some of the comments about my blog entry, I realized that I have always written about “safe” topics, ones that are least likely to stir up controversy, and heaven forbid, make [...]

Let’s Just Pretend The Last 8 Months Never Happened

Looks like it was a sabbatical after all.

Last March, after close to a three-year tenure, I hung up my Storytellers U hat — the one with the Viking horns and a beer funnel — without knowing whether this would be permanent or temporary. Couldn’t help but notice, in the interim, that lords-of-the-manor [...]

AND NOW, OUR … LOSER!

The Chicago Tribune ran “The Great Chicago Ghost Story” contest for Halloween.

The rules: A Chicago site must be mentioned in the story. No more than 750 words.

I wrote a story. Entered.

Lost.

Here’s the loser.

THE GHOSTS OF CHICAGO, I SET THEM FREE

I set them free.

This is a mission statement.

Mine.
