Polterguys Vol. 1 Report

Happy belated Thanksgiving, guys! I hope everyone’s having a great time with family and friends.

I’ve been meaning to share some kind of infographic about Polterguys Vol. 1’s performance since it came out last year. First because infographics are cool and second, because it’s always nice to see some real numbers for research purposes. When I started out, I had no idea what how much money I was going to need or expect and that made it difficult to create a budget. My hope is that this could be another resource for those of you who are interested in making your own books.

It took me a while but I finally found time this weekend to wrangle up numbers and slap on some colors. Hit the jump to check it out!

A few updates!
Polterguys Vol. 2 is finally shaping up to be a real story and not just a few plot points in my head! I’m particularly stressed about getting it done because I realize waiting two years between books is kind of frustrating. Believe me I don’t want to be this slow either. I think moving apartments and looking for a day job this year certainly didn’t help. Anyway, my goal is to have the book done sometime by the end of next year.

Kids Read Comics and ALA Chicago 2013

By the Lakeside in Chicago, Illinois

Whoah, it’s been a crazy few weeks. I’m still kind of recovering from the activities last month and slowly getting back to the usual routines. Both conventions I tabled at couldn’t be more different from each other: one was held at a library, the other at Chicago’s McCormick Place. But both gave me new opportunities I’ve never had before and I’ll always look at this year’s conventions fondly because of it.

TCAF 2013 Recap

So TCAF last weekend was pretty amazing (as I’m sure you’ve heard by now!) I met a ton of amazing people: friends I’ve met before, friends I’ve only known online and met for the first time, fans who have read Polterguys vol. 1 when it was serializing online and finally, comic heroes I’ve long admired (and to whom I summoned the nerve to throw my books at. )
