I mentioned a while ago that I made a little comic book to give away at Burning Man. I printed some copies at the last possible moment in a strange little print shop in Gloucester run by two old ladies who couldn't work out how to replace the toner in the photocopier; they came out kind of wonky, but the people in the desert seemed to like them well enough, in a puzzled sort of way. Since coming home I've been fretting and fiddling with it, the way I do with everything, but sod that: it's time for PIMPAGE. I'm going to do another print run of it, so if you fancy a copy give me your address and I'll send you one (in the tradition of [livejournal.com profile] miss_newham and her Fluffy The Vampire Slayer mailout).

It's called Wasted Epiphanies, it's twelve pages of A5, and it contains many of my usual obsessions (eg: temping polar bears) along with what sex and ice skating have in common and instructions on how to fly a bus.

I don't think I ever wrote to you about it, but I did love the sex & ice skating bit. Along with everything else - it's lovely. I hope you['re] do[ing] more... ;-)

Thanks. I forgot I'd given you a copy, and now images of drunken comic-flinging on your boat are rushing back to me :)

(Yes, I do have a few more pages since then!)

you haven't added more to that one though? If so... ;-)

I like the happy cute way you draw yourself (not, not that page, more generally). It's a good self-image.

Have left you the postal details; if your tale of polar bears and flying buses is half as enjoyable as Jo's account of vampires in Romford it'll more than do for me.

I'd like a piece of that comic action!

Will swap for a copy of Puny Earthling...

It amuses me too much not to.

Also: yay you and your band! Crikey, it's going well, isn't it?

Not added, but I've pulled a couple of pages and replaced them with new ones. I can email you copies of the new pages if you like?

And thanks. I've only recently got to be any good at this self-image thing.

I might, but... actually my list of reasons for not making it a webcomic are probably worth a post in their own right.

Yes please!

Well, I have to go to the print shop to get them photocopied/stapled/etc, so judging by how insane this weekend is looking, I reckon some time next week.

Yay! :D

Thank you thank you thank you! xx

Gah! Well, if it must be on paper, fair enough :)

One copy please!

I honestly can't remember whether I filled in the poll or not. But I want one please! Address here.

P.S. Where were you on Wednesday, eh?

It's on its way.

And PS: at home, feeling broke :/ I heard it went well, though. When's the next one?

\o/

I heard it went well, though.

Yes -- Rhiannon was very good.

When's the next one?

22nd November; guest is Jo Fletcher, editorial director at Gollancz (and, according to the flyer, at various times also an author and critic). It's the last one of the year ... :)

My day started at 9:09 and by 9:23 was shaping up to be an absolute stinker.

Then some wasted epiphanies turned up and took the edge right off it. Thanks, [livejournal.com profile] bluedevi!

Rah! You're very welcome. So I presume yours was one of the few with a first-class stamp?

Date: 2006-11-01 12:23 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] secondhand-rick.livejournal.com
It was indeed. I shall be sure to show it around to increase your fan base.

Is it far far too late to remember that I'd very much like one of these?

Date: 2006-11-18 06:32 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] bluedevi.livejournal.com
Certainly not. I'll post you one forthwith.

Hooray - thank you.
