I’ve created a short spooky story for Halloween — The Classroom Curses: Of Lockers & Lockets is free to read here!
I was happy to learn that Cooties #11 was nominated in the Comics category for the 2018 Association of Mormon Letters award! Feels nice to be noticed.
While unrelated to anything noticeably Mormon, the theme of the issue, sibling relationships, was heavily influenced by both my Mo upbringing and my experience as a parent.
Just having my name mentioned in the same category as such great people as Jake Parker, Brandon Dayton, Noah Van Sciver and Brittany Olsen is such a huge honor for me. It blows my mind that putting the challenge to myself to produce an entire comic issue in 30 days has resulted in this kind of reception. I’m more stoked than ever to keep producing stories for this series!
I’ve finished another design for my Nerdy Storybook Covers print series! Combining Harry Potter and Dr. Seuss. I think it works! I’ll have these available for purchase at FanX in April.
Happy 2019! Just a quick update: I’m currently working on the script for Cooties issue #12. Before I go into production on that, though, I’m working on a sequel to my short story The Classroom Curses. It will be 12 pages, and included in the SpiderForest Collective‘s 2019 Webcomic Anthology, currently titled “Haunted!” I’ll announce the Kickstarter for the project when it goes live later this year.
I’ll keep you all posted as to when you can expect to see new Cooties content. As always, thanks for reading!
