Bramble Vine Comics

Here's a photo of some of my pages out of the Synesthetic Anthology comic book. A few months ago I heard through a sketch group I'm a part of that some cartoonists were putting together a comics anthology of work by writers and artists in the Texas area and that they were looking for submissions. I sent in some work and got added to the project. I worked on my short story, Normal, and turned it in by the deadline. Last week the editors of the book, Jake and Luan, headed to Wizard World Chicago to start shopping the book around to potential publishers.

Today they held a meeting with a bunch of the cartoonists involved to show us the proof copy of the book they made in order to shop it around. After all the meetings and all the work we've done on this project it was really cool to actually see it put together. The colors that Luu added to my work turned out great. It's just so great to actually be able to flip through the whole thing.

Jake and Luu got some great feedback and a few good leads in Chicago. Their next stop is a comic convention in Baltimore next month to keep trying to find a publisher. Personally, I don't see how anyone could turn this down. The whole thing looks amazing!
