What's new? What are you working on? What have you read recently that excited or enraged you?
For my part, I am currently writing out the script for a biographical graphic novel on the life of H. P. Lovecraft. It's a lot of work and research but I have high hopes for the project. It will be drawn by famed Lovecraftian illustrator Jason Eckhardt and will probably be about 100 pages when all is said and done. At the moment, I've written over 16,000 words which translates to 45 comic pages and brings me up to the year 1924. The period of 1925 until his death in 1937 was one of the most interesting in Lovecraft's life and will be very challenging to adapt.
So, what's new with you?

Hiya,
As to what I've done recently, that'd be four pages (3 + 1) for a project headed by Dale Martin, in which he listed a couple dozen objects for contributors to choose from, and create one or three-page stories about each. Mine: a red diary with pages torn out, and (I kidz you not) a "Sweet Talkin' Ken Doll". I think Dale'll be publishing this in the next few weeks.
What I'm currently reading (books) is The Second Amendment, a Biography, as what's currently pissing me off is the IDIOCY of some recent Supreme Court rulings and the even more idiotic (and equally if not more-so dangerous) rulings concerning personal firearms. For comics, I'm indulging in great re-reads of titles I haven't read in (sometimes) decades, including Strangelove, Wandering Star, and, at the moment, a grand re-read of Fables.
Sam's Lovecraft project sounds HUGE but I bet it'll be well worth it when concluded! Go, Sam!
