DECEMBER 2023 (Part 2)

Part 1

Conventions

I've tabled with Peow at conventions a few times over the years, but this year was the first time I tabled alone, at the Stockholm International Comics Festival in May. I brought copies of my own books, Berzerkid and A Cold Place Between the Shores, along with a handful of Peow books. It went so well that I decided to table at Malmö Seriefest in September as well, then at Seriefest i Väst (in Gothenburg) in October, ending my festival tour back in Stockholm at Heroes Comic Con in November. I met lots of nice people like @gudgurkan, so maybe next year I'll even try tabling at a festival outside of Sweden!

Autopsy

I was introduced to UK small press Koguchi late last year, and this year I contributed to their genre anthology Koguchi; the first two issues of the anthology, Arcana Dawn (science fantasy) and Neo-Future (cyberpunk) were crowdfunded in the spring.

Koguchi: Neo-Future, which will be published early next year, includes the story "Autopsy" by me and @mykellpledgerart, in which a mechanic is sent to a walled city to retrieve a machine component but discovers that her mission is somehow connected to the secret history of human clones.

The Hermes

I started writing my second book, The Hermes, which will be illustrated by Tim Fischer (who I previously collaborated with on "Lápida") and published by Kinaye (in French, as L'Hérmès); English-language publisher to be determined.

The Hermes is set in 1930, when Abelard Berg, captain of the barge Hermes, comes to the city of Les Îles Nobles to smuggle out some cargo; Berg meets two children, Luna and Marvin, who are swept into his venture. Can they escape the city without being caught?

Very excited to be writing the book and working with Tim again!

One More Thing

I also wrote a script for an anthology set in the world of an unannounced animated series, but there's no publication date set for the anthology yet.

Vermiglia.

Another peek at “Autopsy.” A comic that illustrated by me & written by @mkllpz. This sc-fi story takes place in the city-state of Vermiglia which is located somewhere inside of Italy.
