I’ve received a few e-mails already asking why I don’t have comments active on the blog on most posts. My reasoning was??ᬨ‚Ćthat I didn’t think I’d have the time to log in and moderate comments and respond to them, which I know I will feel obligated to do. I would much prefer that, if readers have questions or want to make a comment, they e-mail me and I can respond when I can. However it seems that people??ᬨ‚Ćsometimes just want to be made a part of the party, so to speak, and add their thoughts. So, I have turned on comments for the “Stuporman Sneak… READ MORE

I mentioned a few days ago here that I have resisted blogging for a long time. There were several reasons for this, the chief of which was I didn’t want to do it just to have a place to toot my own horn or post my latest scribble looking for feedback. One of the biggest reasons I chose to give blogging a try was because of a blog that I frequent a lot called “News from Me” The author’s name is Mark Evanier, and he’s a tremendously talented and funny writer who’s credits are far too long to list here. He’s written for televison, comics,… READ MORE

I got my start as a professional artist drawing caricatures at a theme park near Chicago during the summers between college semesters. That is a hard and challenging thing to do, believe me.

Live caricature is a unique art form. It involves both art and performance. The most successful excel at both, but one or the other will get you by. I learned to draw caricatures at the theme park, thanks to having the opportunity to draw and… READ MORE

As any previous visitor can see, this new website is a complete reinvention from my previous site’s design. That site, may it rest in peace, was designed by me also and written in HTML by some web guys for very cheap back in 1995. Over the years I rewrote most of it, adding the JavaScript left menu and other things piecemeal until it was really hard to keep updated and was bloated with old, bad work from a long time ago. I got so sick of looking at it one day I realized nearly a year had gone by since last I updated it. I… READ MORE

For the last year or so I have been resisting the pressure to join the 21st century and start a blog of my own. Now that it seems like everyone and their dog has a blog and it’s gone from novel to hip to commonplace, I finally buckled and this is the result. What do I have to talk about? Well, my intentions here are to use this space for a number of things. For starters, I’ll be posting announcements about news and things going on with me. I’m also planning on posting sneak peaks at upcoming projects and things I am working on or… READ MORE
