Thanksgiving


Today at church the Pastor asked the congregation what they were thankful for....one by one people stood up and gave some pretty wonderful heartfelt testimonies. All I could think about was Kristy and Tyler and Ava...who should be here any day now. I just kept thanking him over and over again for my family. My family means everything to me. Now keep in mind this is just before I was supposed to sing "You Have Been So Good To Me" a song written by Paul Baloche and Matt Redman. I stood up, the music started and I proceeded to blubber like a weenie. Sheesh. I did manage to get through the song (with a major league shakey voice) but whatever. You practice a song over and over again and then the "meaning" of the song hits you and it's instant waterworks. HE has been so very good to me.

F.A.Q.


this is not a journal comic and although most strips are "inspired" by real life events and or conversations not everything that appears on this site is in fact true or even how it actually played out.......

walking

Rat a tooey


Last night we were all gathered by the fireplace watching the new Pixar movie, when Ellie started to walk around the room and sniff....well she walked right over to her empty food bowl, squatted over it and then peed!! It's like she was toilet training or something!! I've never seen anything like it....

Nobody Likes Tony Pony....



....is at the printers! I picked 24 (actually 26) of my favoritest strips from this past year and put 'em together in a neat little comical book package. Massive props and thank yous to my pals Josh Alves, who designed this cover and also the cover to "More Than Sparrows" and Megazeen head honcho Joey Endres for helping me prepare the art and for hooking me up with a great printer. I'm sure the books will be available for sale at MZ and Blindwolf Studios soon.....maybe 2 weeks? Also, I haven't forgotten about poor Kuzzah, just been busy with strips about Tony and Tyler and some new characters. Everytime I try to do something else, I think to myself that will just be one less strip I get to do about Tony and then I just totally freeze. Major writers block for anything else! I think once the current Fearnots storyline wraps, I may try to put all of these guys under one roof ala' Peanuts or something? Found a ton of archival stuff...even a letter from Gordon Prior who had me on his local Public access television program a few years ago. It's on VHS if anyone knows how to convert that sort of thing? Then you too can watch my big ole 90s stache in action! Magnum P.I. baby!! Here's a random doodle from my little sketchbook....I was talking to Kneon about my love for "G.I.Joe" and mentioned a tribute book I was thinking about....Here's the first official sketch for "Fort James" and a Tony cover in glorious orange....
