Why hello there,Here's a couple of stories I did for two fine projects earlier this year. The first was made for Steve Tillotson's excellent The Banal Pig Landscape Anthology (http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?ref=vl_other_2&listing_id=26232860).
And the second strip was made for the Polish anthology New British Comics.

Hi There,
I'm sorry for the lack of postings of late. The truth is that I've been really busy working on new projects. So in a little bit I'll have lots of news for you, and lots of new things to point at and show you.
For the time being I thought I'd publish the content of the strange but beautiful little project I completed earlier this year with Paul O'Connell, Green sea Days. Paul and I are almost out of the toblerone/scroll bound comics we made this into so we agreed that its time to put it on the net. I hope you enjoy it. If you would like to purchase a paper copy I still have a couple and would be more than happy to post one of them off to you.
What a great day the Alternative Press Fair was!
In the picture above, from left to right; Leon Sadler (find his stuff in the links at the bottom of the page under Famicon Express), Me, and Hannah Glickstein of Skinny Bill fame.
Lots of books were sold to lots of lovely people, and nice conversations were had. My hat off to the very organized and charming Peter Lally, Jimi Gherkin and Rich Cowdry.
I only wish I had known in advance about the snow storm; I would never have rushed off home and instead stayed to enjoy the evening fun. Oh well, at least during the three hour car journey home I had the famous Dr Parson's (http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=26649732), the celebratic (I think that's a new word I've invented to mean, 'to have celebrity') Sean Duffield (www.dirtysquatters.com/papertiger/), the soon to be famous Hannah Eaton, and the lovely Jaz to keep me company.

Why hello,
Around about a year and a half ago the eminently talented Paul O'Connell (see The Sound Of Drowning in the links bar) approached me with a piece of writing that he needed some art work for. I was excited by the prospect and today our plan has reached fruition. The resulting comic goes by the name Green Sea Days and consists of a two sided stroll of comic art (29 x 42cm in size) bound in a 'toblerone' style cover.
Paul and I spent a nice day cutting and sticking bits of card and paper together to realize Paul's crazy and beautiful binding. Tomorrow Green Sea Days goes on sale for the first time at Comiket at the ICA in London (http://www.ica.org.uk/Comica%20Comiket+18413.twl).
If you can't make it to that and want to be the proud owner of one of these marvels of book binding invention please contact me on my email address and I'll pop one in the post for you (£3 plus pp£1.50).
Take care now.
