It's Thanksgiving and because of travel, work, etc... my family has already done its big meal and I have today to play catch up on projects and play on the internet. Which means posting stuff like crazy. So just a run down of the latest:
1) Private Skin, my photography book, is now available for order from Amazon, Bud Plant and a lot of other book selling sites. I'm truly fascinated by this... I have no concept of the photography book industry and any feedback or information I can get will help me decide if a second book is in order and if I should go for a theme, etc.
2) Event Horizon from Mam Tor came out this week and I am very pleased with a slight reservation. The pages look amazing. Szymon did an awesome job and I look forward to seeing the next part come to life for book 3. The one down side is the letterer made some very odd choices on placement and breaking sentences apart. I think if this continues as planned, I will have to reletter the whole thing when I collect all the parts into a single trade... but that will be FAR down the line if it happens.
3) 30 Days of Night: Dead Space is moving on to issue 2 solicitaiton and book 1 will be in stores in January. This is my first multi-part series to see print and I'll probably watch the Diamond shipping numbers like a hawk.
4) There hasn't been an official announcement yet, but I have found a home for OGN that I wrote a few years back called I AM SPARTACUS. The art is being done by Ilkka Lesonen and it is visually one of the most unique books I have ever seen. The publisher took a look at the first few pages and decided on the spot to publish it. This will probably be in the February Previews for April release.
5) Still waiting for the release dates for my children's book and novella. One will see print while the other is going to be distributed electronically... more details one available.
6) I recently joined both My Space (danwickline) and Suicide Girls (Dan_Wickline) in an attempt to increase my web presence. Not really sure how either of these sites work but I'm playing with them to find out. I think on the SG site I will promote my photography more than my writing, but we'll see.
7) Still waiting for the green light on a licensed property I was asked to pitch for. The pitch was accepted, it's just sitting with the legal department... blah blah blah. My editor is pushing to get things started and I thank him for that. I'm also working up a pitch for one of the big two with a somewhat well known artist. Going after a character I loved when I was a kid.
That's pretty much the update as of now. Going to get over and see Harry Potter this weekend and I'm pulling for my Panthers to beat Buffalo on Sunday. Other than that, I'm hoping for a quiet and productive weekend. I hope everyone has the same.
