WONDERCON COMMISSIONS OPEN: Outside of writing comics, I'm a former Animator on The Simpsons and Futurama. Over the years I've been commissioned to draw up some folks' favorites from these worlds. I still love sketching these characters. I'm opening it up for #WonderCon attendees to pickup. Details⬇️

Knowing where you’re taking the reader and why, is key in writing. Sounds like a no-brainer but nailing those aren’t easy. @melissajmassey.bsky.social shares her process and more in our Writing Disciplines for the Undisciplined panel at SDCC. Link below for the full panel.

It’s here and it’s beautiful. My work in this is one of the more daunting things I’ve ever sat down to write. That it works at all is thanks to the help and support of @artebuen.bsky.social, @bencranewrites.com, and, of course, @valhal.bsky.social.

Yup, I was that kid with a Lamborghini poster in my room thanks to elementary school book fairs. This is part of a larger piece for an upcoming show. It’s not hard to decode the theme. Can’t wait to share when it’s done.

We got the chance to spotlight our lettering creative partner, @gofrankgo.bsky.social, a bit. When great lettering functions perfectly, it flows with story and doesn't call attention to itself. Frank did that especially well in one intense scene, he's magic.
