Hey look! I have an official author's photo for my book and publicity and what not. Actually, I have five. Click on the little images below to see them full size.

It's been a busy few days for me recently. I had the proofs of Sir Ryan's Quest for a while but the publisher needed them back so they are gone now. Man, it was exciting to see everything all put together! Also, I finished another draft of a dummy book. I'm very pleased about that. Check out the comparisons below.

I got a new computer too. An iMac. It's very slick but trying to figure it out is making me crazy!!!!

I had my first classroom visit as an author/illustrator this week. A lovely little second grade class in Groton.

I don't just make children's books. I also make children.

Actually, my wife is in the process of making the baby. But I like to think I helped get things started.

[06.07.08]
The cover for Sir Ryan's Quest is all put together. Check it out!

There are a few more finishing touches to take care of but this is pretty much it.

[05.18.08]
Not much to say. I'm currently working on a book that I've been tinkering with for 3 years.

[04.13.08]
More mud. More to come.

Also, I have to write a mini-biography for the jacket of Sir Ryan's Quest. Not sure what to write. Any ideas?

[03.09.08]
I'm back to work on a few new/old ideas. Here's a few characters that have been inhabiting my brain recently.

I went to New York City Thursday to drop off Sir Ryan's Quest. You can see in the picture below how when I held my mighty artwork aloft, the people at Grand Central Station went running, cowering from my powers as an author/illustrator.

I'm finally finished with my first book, Sir Ryan's Quest. It happened quietly with no one around to notice except my cat. Just packed up my pencils, gave my cat a few pats on the head, and called it a day.

I'm sort of almost entirely finished with Sir Ryan's Quest. Just some finishing touches and then it's off to the publisher.

Happy Groundhog's Day.

Ryan in the garage again.

Sorry it's so fuzzy.

Sorry it's so fuzzy.

It's coming along.

And just like before, here's a little comparison to an earlier version:

Here's a picture of Sir Ryan's Quest at about 80% completed.

More Ryan!

Once upon a time that shot on the left looked a little something like this:

Change is a good thing.

Here's a picture of me and some illustrator friends. I'm the one glowing in the luminous red sweater.

I hope no one sues me for using their likeness without permission on the internet.

[01.06.08]
Happy New Year!

Why is this picture so dark? Well, I like to think it's because my artwork is shrouded in a mysterious veil of secrecy. In truth, I just have a junky camera that I don't know how to operate.
