Just FYI- I'm not going to be at SPX this year. Just taking the fall for other projects and cleaning up after an insane spring & summer. Hope to be back next year.
I will, however, be putting out a little internet minicomic either late tonight or early tomorrow. I'm editing about two months of strips into a story that tells the tale of Suzie shooting Clango with a laser. Long-time readers know the tale, but I think the presentation is a lot cleaner in this form.
Kudos to joltin' Johnny Allison for helping me quickly code it together this week. |

I can't stand people who start out in humor and get all SERIOUS as they get older. Like they want to be more IMPORTANT than a comedian.
I daresay there is nothing more important than making people laugh. Except maybe knowing how to field dress long pig in an apocalyptic situation. |

Back when I was training subjects in the Discount Weapon X Program, all we needed was to put this song on repeat for a few days and then open the van in a crowded mall.
We didn't need any fancy healing factors or Adamantium. We got buy on PLUCK and GUMPTION. |

If you're in Austin today, you should come say hi at Dragon's Lair! I'll be there from 1-6pm with socks and books and goodies with Meredith Gran, KC Green, David McGuire and more webcomics folks! http://tinyurl.com/37luxar Posted via LiveJournal.app. |

I hate summer. I hate hot and sticky and anything over seventy American degrees.
THIS CALLS FOR SENOR COCONUT. |

| Reader Question Comics Week! |

Hi there! If you stumbled on this randomly, I draw a webcomic called Diesel Sweeties. Now that we are properly introduced, I need a favor.
I'm going to be on the road again in July with Meredith touring to promote the brand-new Octopus Pie book. I'll be on the southern leg of the trip with comic shop events in NYC, Austin, Los Angeles and San Francisco. (possibly Asheville, NC as well) I'll tell you the specifics as soon as I know for sure.
I need to build a big buffer of comics and scripts before we leave in a couple weeks and I don't like "filler" or re-runs. That's where all of you come in. Let's collaborate!
I need your questions. You can ask me stuff directly or you can ask the characters. Ever wonder who knows who from where? Who lives under what rock? Whatever happened to the Man of Tomorrow?
I'll take the best questions and make comics out of them. Unless you say otherwise, I'll credit you.</p>
Rules:
+ Email me. I'm rstevens@mac.com. Twitter replies, Facebook messages, Livejournal comments and Post-It notes left on my door don't count.
+ Keep it short. Your question needs to fit in a pixelated word balloon! If you couldn't tweet it, I can't fit it.
+ I'll be picking questions based on whether or not I can make a good comic out of them. Going "totally random" is a pretty sure way not to get picked. Stick to PG-13 vocabulary, though creepy concepts are fine.
******
Obviously, not every question will work and I apologize in advance if I don't use yours. I may not know the answer to your question.
Yes, this is pretty similar to what Trudeau does in Doonesbury with reader letters. What can I say? I'm a huge fan of the concept.
This will be a one or two week series depending on the quality of the questions. You can write in as many times as you like, but points are deducted for being purposely annoying. You've got until June 30th! |

| checking in with the distant LJ nebula |
[Jun. 11th, 2010|11:14 am] |
Hey, LJ. It's been a while. Anyone still out there? If not, where have you gone? (that's a paradox, I know)
I've been spending most of my time sleeping around with Twitter (@rstevens) and sometimes tumbling with Tumblr.
I am utterly resistant to external change, so I guess you could say I'm doing OK! |
