Hi, I’m Dave. I love making comics and graphic novels! I’m currently working on my next book (drops early next year) and have the project after that all lined up, but I would be THRILLED to get some more cover work! I am good and fast!

Just saw this little link pop up and I'm assuming it's just a list of things not to do:
1. Punch them in the face.
2. Belittle them.
3. Poison them.
4. Tell them they're crazy.
5. Dress up like a dinosaur and insist that you're not dressed up like a dinosaur when asked about it.
etc.
