…this time on E-Junkies.info. This is a website devoted to ecommerce, small business, self-publishing and creative stuff on the internet. They have an interview with an artist each week…

David O’Leary and the folks over at Comics Related really scraped the bottom of the barrel and interviewed me for their feature “5 minutes with…” As happens a little too often with me… I was done in only 2 minutes.

David Paccia is the author of the interesting blog “David-Wasting-Paper“, which features interviews with cartoonists in the form of a series of survey questions. There has been a great run of terrific cartoonists interviewed on David’s site, but I’m afraid that run has come to an end. Yes, David has finally scraped the bottom of the barrel and has stooped to interviewing me for his blog. Looks like he redeems himself next with my friend Rick Stomowski (Soup 2 Nutz), but in the meantime he wears the yoke of shame.

However, do not let that dissuade you from visiting David’s Wasting Paper and reading the other 88 interviews worth reading!

Now playing on Tall Tale Radio, my interview with Tom Racine! I am truly thrilled to have been asked to be a guest on the show. It’s one of the best cartooning resources out there. Check out the show and be sure and bookmark the site and listen to the 60 plus other shows he’s archived. Informative and entertaining stuff.

I few months back I did a short post singing the praises of Tall Tale Radio, the podcast show that focuses on the cartooning and comics industry. I’m a big fan of the show and an avid listener.

Earlier this week I was interviewed by none other than Tom Racine, the host of TTR, and will be “appearing” (so to speak) as a guest on the show!

All of which leads to just one obvious conclusion:

Tall Tale Radio has hit the skids and is desperate for guests of any kind… why else would they sink this low?

Maybe Tom’s just run out of really fascinating people to talk with, like  Stephen Pastis (Pearls Before Swine), Jeff Keane (The Family Circus), John and Anne Hambrock (The Brilliant Mind of Edison Lee), Mark Tatuli (Heart of the City, Lio), Dave Coverly (Speedbump), Andrew Farago of the San Fransisco Cartoon Art Museum, John Read of Stay Tooned magazine and many others.

Who knows? All I know is I managed to blather on for an hour or so, and Tom promised to edit me down to only the interesting things I had to say. Has Tall Tall Radio ever done a 5 minute interview before? I guess we’ll find out.

The episode with me is tentatively set for Monday, Dec. 28th. If nothing else, it will be a sure cure for insomnia, and I can only hope I don’t bring TTR down in flames with me.
