The life of a self-publisher can be streaky. By that, I mean short bursts of lots of visible activity and then long(-ish) stretches of what looks like nothing. I’d say we’re in the latter, but that doesn’t mean nothing is happening. So how about an update? My flagship book, Hologram, is moving along at itsContinue reading “The in-between days”

On George Pérez
The legendary George Pérez just offered a heartbreaking update about his health today. You can read it here. The comics world knew that Mr. Pérez wasn’t in the best shape, but today’s news is simply tragic. I never met Mr. Pérez.
