Lots of stuff going on, and I’ve been bad updating the site. Bad, Paul, bad! Work continues on the Earth Invasion comic book, and I’ve started brainstorming my first novel. So lots of writing ahead of me… More to come soon, but for now, my puppy is pestering me to go out to the dog […]

No, I’m not in San Diego
I’m having withdrawals. With each new bit of news and descriptions of footage that trickles out onto the Internet from San Diego Comic-Con, a little bit of me dies inside. I’ve been attending SDCC for about 20 years now, almost non-stop. There was one year I decided not to go as I hadn’t gotten a […]
A plea for civility.
There’s a lot of anger in our country right now. I think we can all agree that the country is deeply divided…we saw it during the election, and we see it now in the discourse about the 45th president on both sides of the political spectrum. Too frequently, this divisiveness is being expressed as dismissiveness: […]
What if Pokemon GO Inspired a Horror Movie?
Nice writeup on Portal Popperz: What If Pokemon Go Inspired a Horror Movie?
Portal Popperz!
I haven’t posted in awhile, but that’s because I’ve been working on a top-secret project! But now that the Kickstarter has launched, I can say a bit about it.

I was much more regular with posts when the webcomic was coming out (most) every week, as that was something that I could repost here and talk about. I still don’t have a replacement artist for Heroines for Hire. To be fair, I haven’t […]
The Party’s Over…for the moment
Many of you have probably noticed we haven’t had a strip in over a month. My artist Jo Roberts has been busy with her budding leatherworking business and pursuing other (paid)work, so she hasn’t been able to work on a strip. We had a talk last night, and sadly she informed me that she wouldn’t […]
May the 4th Be With You!
Yes, it’s Star Wars day! I was actually going to get in my first full game of Guild Ball tonight, but the guy I was meeting up with got sick, so I might just have to pop in my copy of Force Awakens and watch it with BB-8. Always a bunch of great Star Wars […]
Happy Passover!
This week with Heroines for Hire, we detour from our storyline to give you a little Passover story. For my Gentile friends, you might be wondering what’s going on in today’s strip. Here’s the Cliff notes version: Passover, which starts this weekend, is a major Jewish holiday that commemorates the Exodus, ie the Jews getting […]
