Concepts and finishing lines

Been busy. I started this blog to help people keep track of things I'm doing and I can't even keep up. ha ha. I haven't been writing a whole lot just designing and planning like crazy. Well that's not entirely true. I wrote a cool short I think I'm shooting late Spring. It's called Medea in Exile. I think this might just be the last Greek thing I do for a while (meaning a year or so :). I FINALLY developed an art concept for Sassy Scarf so now I get to format, budget and hire an artist. It seems a LGBT (an LGBT??) artist would get the story better but not necessarily. I might just be being overly protective,...

Still Graphic-ing

Thought you might like to check out a couple of pages for Equinox the graphic novel that's taking FOREVER to finish :) Here we have Scorn praying for vengeance (by the lovely Shanna Beauchamp) and Grace trying not to mourn ( by the also lovely Angie Light)!

April 1st show and I’m not foolin’

My collection of children's stories for GLBT youths and children of GLBT parents is confirmed! Sunday April 1st at 2pm! I'm telling 4 stories: Mary-Anne and Ginger; The Shrew, the Shoe, a King and a Prince; boy-girl-girl-boy; and soon to be world famous, The Sassy Scarf Story! I'm excited to be working with Yolanda Baños who has already told me to slow down like 14 times! It's technically only a workshop but you know me: rehearse rehearse rehearse! The stories just make me giggle and the words leap off my lips. It's weird. If you would have asked me years ago if I'd write GLBT children's stories I would have looked at you like you were a crazy person. ...
