Last weekend was Summer Edition, and the last comic "event" in Ireland for a few months. Its a bit different in that its not exclusively a comics event, there are a number of other small press and self-published works for sale. Some of the stuff people produce is just amazing. I'll make a point of hyping this a bit more next year cause even if you are not a comics fan, and like a nice book (of nice looking things in general), its well worth your while stopping in. A big thanks to Phil, Paddy & Katie for all their hard work in organising this and well done on its sucess. I had a great (and worthwhile) time at it and most of the people who I talked to did too.
I started doing a few little sketches on postcard-size card, and sort of using them as a "business card" type of thing (I was giving them away with every sale and they had my contact info on them). The seemed pretty popular and are fairly easy to do, so I think thats going to be an idea I'll be sticking with.
"Short Sharp Shocks" is selling well, so thanks to anyone who bought it! If you want to let me know what you thought of it, feel free to drop me a line with your tuppence-worth.
I've a couple of things in the pipeline at the minute; two Transformers strips that I'm currently working on and then its on to my next self-published project. Its the biggest thing I've tried so far, and I'm just hoping I turns out OK!
