Still feeling it after I found out an old friend passed away when I googled his name. I’m at that age now where anyone I’ve met, it’s 50/50 if they’re alive. Make it a point to check in on your friends & loved ones. You never know.

Finished shareable graphics for SPACE ‘26. Better location than last year’s show. Now in Hilliard, Ohio. The longest running comics & zines show in the Midwest. backporchcomics.com for table application and more info.

I am working on (eep) four or five new projects of my own. With a goal to publish the damn things in the new year. It needs to happen as I never seem to get more than a couple of comps. 🤷🏼♂️ Plus I don’t like not having comics on my table even though half the shows aren’t comic shows.

I don’t run special Black Friday type sales but there are some things discounted. Two comics are running low on stock & I’m not reprinting either. Like one strong convention season & both will sell out before 2026 is over.

10 quotes worth remembering, and that’ll be glossed over in MSM obits, from a former vice president who pushed for a murderous invasion of Iraq, lied about the WMD threat, and defended torture.

Yup.
He should have died in The Hague.
Former Vice President Dick Cheney has died, his family said in a statement. He was 84 abcnews.go.com/Politics/for...

Mostly going towards frames, not doing many paintings for this. It will be mostly limited digital prints & traditional mixed media drawings that will need frames. Funny that the full color art zine is the cheapest thing in my rough budget for the show.

Thinking of doing a GoFundMe to raise funds for a potential gallery show next year since the local arts grant folks pretty much shuttered. It’s a bigger ask than what they would have bankrolled anyway. Kickstarter isn’t viable for this type of thing either.

I think the consensus has been to make the IG posts more consistent than what I’ve been doing which is borderline chaos.

Went through my IG and did a small purge on posts. I don’t think anyone will notice. It’s a lot of posts that served their purpose at the time. Cutting life posts that now I only do in stories. Couple people said it might actually increase traffic. 🤷🏼♂️ Jury is out on that.

Goddamn it I hate venues and shows that use Google Docs for signup. What happens is I have to remember my fucking Gmail password, send the doc link to myself then 50/50 I remember to sign up. Please please get a real website.

b) the general crowd going to these shows don’t buy comics in artist alley. Fan art used to not dominate most tables. Now half the tables are nothing but fan art. This needs capped.
Get a head count on tables. If a show has more than 150 creators tabling, skip it.

I’ve all but stopped doing mainstream shows largely due to two things a) the table price has completely gone off the rails. Seriously, if you’re going to charge more than $200 for a weekend show it better come with a money back guarantee you make table.

That was a bummer. The Peacemaker finale felt like an hour long post credits scene more than a finale. It was weird in a bad way. Cena though was fantastic.

So Ohio votes to legalize marijuana right but then this week, the governor is pulling thc infused products off the shelves. How does that make any sense at all? I don’t consume any of it but if I wanted to I would pick that over tobacco or alcohol. It’s the healthier option. WTF?

I’m not a big fan of going to see bands where they keep going past the original line up. I accept I missed my shot & move on. (Peak Rolling Stones for me happened before I was born) You can hear it when you see them live. Except for acts like NIN that never had a fixed lineup.

Today’s #jacktober prompt- the Vision. Done in procreate. Not many of the lists that came out this year made me want to commit to one. I did like the idea of a panel a day story but I have no time to write & draw one. October gets busy for me & I never make it to the end.

Can we get Schumer and Jeffries out of the leadership roles? They’re everything that’s wrong with the Democratic Party. Cripes!

Technical difficulties- my router appears to be crapping out. A new one is on its way but this will switch up the studio work flow for ‘3-5’ days till it arrives. File delivery via ftp is down until then. 🤷🏼♂️

Spent the last three hours trying to get my network back up. I succeeded finally but starting to crash. Corrupted is better than a fried WiFi adapter.

Knowing the gallery, if I don’t get a September slot then that will scale back things a little.

I just put together a rough estimate for supplies and printing if I get into this one man show. Yowza. Even if the town arts org was still doing grants, I’d be coming up short. May do a GoFundMe for it because I don’t want the added headache of Kickstarter rewards while pulling a show together.
