24 Hour Comic Book Day Success

I am happy to report here that my participation in the 24 Hour Comic Book Day event, an international event, locally hosted by Carol and John's Comic Book Shop was a success.  I was one of five people who actually completed a 24 page comic book in 24 hours, and that was out of about 17 people who participated at that location.  I was the only person who remained for the entire 24 hours, so I feel like I get to wear an extra badge of honor with that one.

I am very proud of the work I did on the comic, and am very happy with the story.  The comic will be submitted for consideration for publication in the 24 Hour Comic Book Day anthology published by Scott McCloud, and the comic will also be submitted to be included in the archives of the Ohio State University's Comic Book Library.  Should the comic go to actual publication, I will be sure to post more updates on this website about it. 

I want to say a very big thank you to the staff and team at Carol and John's Comic Book shop who were wonderfully supportive and encouraging.  They brought in pizza for dinner and bagels for breakfast and were simply amazing.

24 Hour Comics Day Challenge

I will be participating in the 24 Hour Comics Day Challenge at my local comic shop, Carol And John's Comic Book Shop beginning at Noon on Saturday October 18 and ending Noon Sunday October 19.  The deal is that you are locked in the store for 24 hours and that's the time you have to write and produce a 24 page comic book.  Nothing can be on paper beforehand.

Visitors are allowed at the store until the store closes at 7:00 (so stop by and say hi if you can!) and our progress will be posted on a blog available through Carol and John's.  It's a challenge, but I'm up to it!
