Just Checking In...

Yeah, it's been a long while since I posted, the reason being (still) due to commission work having to take precedence. Paid work is always a priority, I find! And speaking of getting paid, I finally managed to reach a settlement with Borders over my outstanding pay cheque - yep, the same one I submitted an invoice for back in January - since head office don't seem able to. I've been lucky that everybody in my local branch has bent over backwards to help me out on this venture, with polite and totally professional communications at all times.

I hooked up again with my man Frang to talk about the next project for Fewnriswulf. A compendium of all the "Arf & Mo" strips that were written and drawn over a period from 1998 - 2005, which will be collected into one big daddy volume. The complete unpublished Issue 2 of the titular duo's adventures will form the backbone of the book (in graphic novel format), and will include sketches, one-off character pieces, portraits and other nonsense for the discerning lowbrow funny-animal underground comic book fan. This one will take some time to pull together, and I'm still wondering quite what to do with the Black Flag. I realise now that drawing a graphic novel in pencil was a pretty dumb thing to do, but I didn't know any better back in January 2000. Hell, back then I was still getting over the fact that the world hadn't come to an end...

Due to the projected timescale on the Arf & Mo book (which I don't expect to see completed before the end of the year, and will also have a corresponding website), I've given some thought to what we could bring out in the meantime. Work on "Venus in Saturn" is coming along beautifully, with multi-laytered plot threads weaving a story that grows more complex every time I work on it, but again, that's a loing-term plan. I don't particularly want Fenriswulf not to be able to put out new product for the rest of this year, so possibly another medium other than printed books could be next.

In a possibly related note, my band Jeremiah have just self-pressed our first full-length demo CD. Watch this proverbial space...
