Waiting . . .

Waiting is the hardest part. I can tell this is going to be hard for me.

In talks with an artist

I'm now talking to a guy about penciling my story.

Step 1: Develop a script. Done.

I recently completed Andy Schmidt's writing class over at Comics Experience, where I workshopped a five-page script. Some of the others in my class are going to produced an anthology collecting our respective works.

Step 2: Team-up with an artist to tell the story. In process.

Been slogging through portfolios and posts over at Digital Webbing, PencilJack and other places, evaluating art and contacting artists.

I sent out several e-mails and posted an ad. I've had two artists turn me down. But I'm actually kind of psyched. Both guys just took jobs, one with DC and another at Zenescope on the Grimm Fairy Tales line. I guess I have a good eye for talent. (Not like it's hard to recognize good pencils.) Still, rejection is part of the process.

I'm going to make comics.

I've been a writer and editor for some time, but now I'm going to make my own comics.
