This is the year that I get things done. For real. This will also be the year that I make a concerted effort to keep this blog updated more often.
Damian and I are pushing forward on the The Orchard, a 21 page tale that will be part of the (tentatively titled) Acts of Violence crime anthology that a group of writers and I are putting together.

Page 3 pencils from The Orchard:

Once we’re finished this story, we’re hopping back into The Division for Arcana and are hoping to have that complete early in 2009. When it will see print, I don’t know! Since coming across an old post where I claim that The Division will be out sometime in 2007, I’ve decided to stop making predictions. What I can tell you is that the first 3 issues are complete. Issue 4, the last, is currently (and slowly) being written.

Humanoids is plugging along. The artwork is looking great — SO, SO, GREAT — and I wish I could show it off, but I’m not sure how the publisher would feel about that.

I’ve got about a million and a half other projects in the wings, but will get to those at another time.

Lettering work is starting to look a little scarce with all that economic stuff going on. Right now, I’m enjoying the break, but in the next few days I’m going to dive in head first and see how much work I can drum up. A lot of publishers are cutting back on their production schedules in order to ride out the recession, so it’s not going to be easy, no sir.
