'The Eve Of' was published three years ago in the anthology 'You Ain't No Dancer 2' by New Reliable Pressi encourage you to view this hereIf you have ordered zines from me, they have been shipped. Except for the 'grab bag' packages, which are taking a little longer, but will hopefully be done tomorrow.
i will probably take this down at some point soon
most of the images displayed during the talk about a 'graphic novel' are not actually in the 'graphic novel'
i sound like a 12 year old

I sent off the xeric application. No idea how to feel about it. I think I'll release a zine or something of the first chapter. This is an early panel.

How do people like the new layout? I am typing text here, something I normally don't do. I may do more of this in the future. Is this ok? Things will be back to normal soon. I am working on:
JT: okay. one of the things i always find to be the strongest in your work is how you capture posture. you seem like a very good observer of how people present themselves down to the specifics of gesture, sitting position, etc. can you talk a little about that and how maybe that might relate to the way you (visually) describe action and movement?
BL: i think part of it - something i realized the other day - is i am an observer of observers. it's sort of narcissistic. i like the observer and i think it's worthwhile watching him/her. so a lot of my characters are not really participating in any action - they're on the sidelines, content with enjoying everything cathartically. i did this whole drawing zine where each page i drew my body as it was positioned at that moment. i was in this phase where i was drawing naked on the floor a lot, and i liked the way i looked in that action. i'm not a very action-oriented person - all my energy i channel inward. so i guess it's those moments where things happen for me - when i'm sitting or standing or lying down - that real things happen. so when i capture these physical acts, they're often lacking in any external force. when i did those salvia comics, i loved the idea of showing someone's physical state while they're going through this intense internal change. it's also funny because in comics the tendency is to show all that subjective stuff, but by leaving it out you can shift the focus to its absence.
