New greeting card with Nobleworks!

Free sample ebook

2012-12-30T20:08:00.004-08:00

I created a free sample of my second ebook you can download from the iTunes store. You get up to the end of the first chapter to see if my funny little scribblings are something you would like to have for your very own on the mobile device of your choosing. You can see the chapter names of the rest of the book but can't access them. It is a complicated little piece of work to make ones of these but it should be a help for those who won't take it on blind faith that I will be at least $5.99 worth of laughs. Find it here!

New cards for Target

2012-11-28T09:02:00.000-08:00

Not a creature was stirring.. not even a mouse-stache.

Target seems to have a mustache fetish for Xmas. Not exactly sure why but who am I to question a sale?

"Look what a fish."

2012-11-13T21:43:00.000-08:00

Last Friday I went fishing for perhaps the last time this year thinking I most likely would go fish free as has been the case far too much this year. Instead I made the acquaintance of a local muskie monster. This time of year you can "stick a pig" in muskie fisherman lingo and this one qualified in the porcine category. I didn't have a scale but I would guess 30 pounds or thereabouts after hoisting her from the giant net. I had a measuring board courtesy of a nearby boat of muskie fishermen and she was 41 inches from my quick measurement. Had I squeezed her tail fin I might have gained a couple inches. I tried to get her back in the water fast though and she did swim away in good condition happy to report.

Happy Halloween!

Hi folks,

2012-10-30T21:27:00.001-07:00

Haven't posted for a bit. Not sure if anyone misses this blog's content. Been pretty busy with new projects and clients. It has been a year of change. I recall last year at this time the regular staff checks from the magazine stopped for the first time in well, since 1977. A long time to work for one company especially in this business. Print I am sad to say has not been kind to cartoonists in this day and age. Web is gaining. Businesses and companies want to have their own blogs and social media outlets and they want interesting content to augment their messages. Cartoons fit the bill nicely and cartoonists can certainly use the work. I have never and neither have you, seen a period like this in the profession of the cartroon arts where so many artists of long standing have been given their wlaking papers. And it is a time where humor and escape from the trials of reality have never been needed more at least to this handful of generations. Why this is so, I don't have an answer. I thought magazines and papers would be around forever! I am part of the problem as much as anyone in my reading habits with these new fangled devices. I have tried to get on board the e-train by learning how to create e-books which in my opinion is the best part of this new world. It has let loose the authors who could never be, to be their own publisher, distributor and on and on. That is monumental. As soon as some bright young kid invents the easy app for epub production the race will be in full swing. However I do wonder about the effect of letting loose a virtual herd of authors in a sort of literary stampede. The amount of content would be staggering and it would dilute the potential earning power of each author by the sheer numbers of participants.

Oh well, this post is also about seeing if I can post an image to this blog from my ipad on which I have been typing. Let's see.

My Ebook is no 4 on Amazon!

2012-09-20T07:43:00.001-07:00

This is my best showing so far. The book has been in the top ten for several weeks now for some reason. I haven't done much extra marketing lately either so who knows why but I ain't complaining! Book two has been better. It's time to get to work on the next books. New job has been taking lots of time but it is a great feeling to be out from the underworld of humor. It's time more folks got to know my humorous potential and that wasn't going to happen with you-know-who.

Think tank

2012-09-11T09:49:00.002-07:00

Let's think about it a bit more before we get into another war. Especially when things are their toughest and we want to strike out at anyone. And don't let bad leaders take this country where it should not go. Never forget that's how Nazi Germany started. No country or people are immune to fascism.

2012-08-19T14:09:00.000-07:00

The Blog Carnival has listed my blog and even includes a link in their store for my ebook. That's pretty nice of them! Glad to be part of the project BC! Welcome blog readers, this is the place for crazy cartoons you won't see anywhere else. Make yourselves at home, I'll go get us something to drink.

I know it's been a bit of time since my last post. Here's the latest strip for the Funnies Extra, a national advertising paper you might come across in a shop while you are waiting for your brakes getting fixed or possibly getting a trim at your local barbershop. It's a franchise opportunity for anyone to start their own business. Just google Funnies Extra to find out the particulars. Then go back to waiting on your car.

Calling all Nookies!

2012-06-12T11:54:00.001-07:00

Now you can get my newest book for your little Nookie. New improved text styling and overall performance from the first book! Try out the voice-over if Nooks do indeed have that capability. I'm not sure; I don't have a Nook but I will get one soon for testing books. Microsoft dumped a bunch of money into B&N so you folks don't have to worry anymore that your device will go belly up when B&N does which it won't now. Bill G. has his hand in that pie from here out. It's the Big Three in e-publishing for the foreseeable future. That's why I have direct accounts to all those sellers now. No more aggregators, I am in effect, a publisher bona fide.
