For some reason it feels like it's been ages since I wrote you...

Hi {name},
So how was your summer after all? (let me know) Much of mine was devoted to completing a handful of projects I've been excited about, and setting up some big ones. Despite that, I did get to enjoy a short stay among the redwoods of the Santa Cruz mountains. Needless to say, The Milo had a great time.

As for me, it was a welcome break but it already feels so long ago; I've had a lot to do since. You see, along with this monthly (+/-) MUSEletter, I gave myself an additional deadline in the form of another online subscription.

With a short 6 months to launch date and much to do in preparation I'll be publishing a monthly Tiger Tuesday exclusive from Talk@ATigersTale.com. I've got some articles and other features in the works for it. But worry not, I will also be keeping you in the loop with this project. What follows is the essential content of my first Tiger Tuesday Exclusive posted on August 31st. It will go live to the public on the website itself in another month or so.

Order Your Copy

At last, this long awaited book is now available. The comic which is featured within its pages is a short story I've had in mind (as a potential DIY film) for some time. As a comic its potential expanded greatly, it now has me blocking out some time to develop a pitch for it as a larger work; perhaps a YA GN. In the meantime, I hope you'll consider seeking out a copy; that's not an affiliate link but it's an indie alternative to Amazon; it may also be worth asking your local library.

I'm lagging on ordering a bunch of copies myself. Let me know if you'd prefer to purchase a signed copy from me, it'll probably include extra swag.

You may also recall my mention of this latest Album Cover project. There's also the short BLADERUNNER themed comic which I illustrated within this anthology. It's more mature than the YA & middlegrade comics I've been producing lately and I will, once again, find myself surrounded by amazing talent. It's currently in production, but the reason I bring it up is this behind the scenes look at this cover's completion -

The concept behind this was as follows. Backers of the kickstarter campaign could name a comic cover in the shop window. Others covers would be based on track titles with a very few set aside as Easter eggs. This video is your best chance to have a close look at what those covers & Easter eggs look like.

Lastly; read my latest installment of...
