My buddy @jpcoovert.bsky.social has just posted a really important video about being an indie creator and dealing with Trump's ridiculous tariffs. Check it out and support JP's work. It's amazing.

Wow! I started a new Instagram account last week for my work as a kidlit author, and I'm about to hit 250 followers. Not bad for an old fart who's still learning how social media works!

I’ve launched a new Instagram account dedicated to my work as a kidlit author. It would mean a lot if you followed the new account, helped spread the word, and gave it a boost to get things rolling.

I’m between books so I’ve created a bunch of work for myself to keep busy this summer so I don’t feel like I’m a big-dumb-failure.

You know what I hate drawing? DM screens. It's really hard to make them look right and then you gotta figure out what's ON the screen because nobody has a blank DM screen. But adding a design to the screen can distract from the image in general.

Cartoonists: I'm going to be attending a convention later this year. What do we currently like regarding signage for AA tables? Are we draping stuff over the table? Retractable banners? What are people finding works well? The less I have to ship or carry the better, but I want to be seen at the show

Brad has been encouraging me to offer similar consultations and I've been terrified to pull the trigger on it. I know I have a lot of knowledge to offer, and I love helping people with their work, but I guess my imposter syndrome kicks in and stops me.
I've added a Comics Coaching tier to my consultation page. You can now schedule a 30-minute talk to discuss the topic of your choice!

Schedule a one-on-one talk with Brad Guigar. We'll talk comics, social media, crowdfunding, merchandising — or whatever else is on your mind!
