An update … and a kind word
I know… I’ve been derelict with maintaining the site. I worked a little on it over the weekend, pairing the FANzine Live Phoenix Spotlight videos with their accompanying entries in the Library tab. So that’s done. And I’m woefully behind on weekly recaps. Those aren’t the most difficult to assemble, but they take time…and I’mContinue reading “An update … and a kind word”
FANzine Live: Week of August 24-30
Labor Day weekend saw me stomping around the Hocking Hills of Southeast Ohio with my family, gathered from far and wide. Good stuff. But I’m now late on FANzine Live video recaps. Will you forgive me? Things kicked off per normal with a Phoenix Spotlight on the Hologram: Counting the Days Book One collection. ManyContinue reading “FANzine Live: Week of August 24-30”
FANzine Live: Week of August 17-23
Normalcy (h/t to President Harding) is coming back! School is in session, fall routines are starting to shake out. The chaos of summer is almost entirely past. We can breathe once again! So why not check out the latest FANzine Live video recaps? The Phoenix Spotlight kicks things off with a passion project of mine,Continue reading “FANzine Live: Week of August 17-23”
2024: The Halfway Point
New Year’s is a time of self-renewal. We make resolutions, mostly to improve ourselves in an effort to be happier, more confident and more satisfied with one’s life. I know, 99% of the resolutions are of the lose weight/exercise variety, and 99% of THOSE don’t pan out. But I’d like to try for a more modest, perhaps moreContinue reading “2024: The Halfway Point”
FANzine Live: Week of June 1-7
ACK! WordPress failed me! I tried to use a copy of the June 1-7 post to make the June 8-14 post…but it wrote over the original! No time to replace all the witty banter. Let’s just get to the meat of it and move on with the day. John Muller. Me. Our LCS comics debuts.Continue reading “FANzine Live: Week of June 1-7”
FANzine Live: Week of May 25-31
Back from the family vacation week, and struggling mightily to catch up. Driving 600 miles in a single day isn’t the same at 53 that it was at 23. (Ugh.) First, John Muller and my “Run For Your Life!” story is going to run in Planet Comics #30, which is available for pre-order. Looks likeContinue reading “FANzine Live: Week of May 25-31”
FANzine Live: Week of May 18-24
SCHOOL’S OUT! Can our intrepid cottage industry self-publishing hobbyist keep up the pace that the world is used to while running the Dad Taxi and shuttling kids everywhere and shipping the family out on vacation? Keep tuning in to find out! Seriously, I’ve been preparing for summer. I know it’s going to be crazy, soContinue reading “FANzine Live: Week of May 18-24”
FANzine Live: Week of May 11-17
Oh my! I’m falling behind on the summaries! The Phoenix Spotlight took a look at Hologram #3, and I introduced the key plot threads of the story arc. That was a Saturday, and I had a bit of time on Sunday to sharpen up some promotional videos for Phoenix zines. Here they are: More surelyContinue reading “FANzine Live: Week of May 11-17”
Fanzineist Vienna (??) 2024
OK, so it’s not SPACE. But my grand plans for SPACE fell by the wayside when my wife fell ill, leaving me to chaperone my eldest at the National Geography Bee in Washington, DC. (Which wasn’t ALL bad, as I got to check out Fantom Comics on Dupont Circle.) And lest you think that I’mContinue reading “Fanzineist Vienna (??) 2024”
