Recently, I’m sure many of you have been wondering why ICECUBES the comic strip hasn’t been updating more often. After all, everyone likes new strips right? Believe it or not one major reason is the weather! It has been extremely hot down here in Texas (yes, the comic strip takes place in Alaska, but I live in Texas). I don’t have a working AC unit in my attic studio where the temperature is in the 90ºs. So it’s just impossible to work in there until the weather cools off.
The other reason is that I put a tremendous amount of time and energy into making the new ICECUBES book. I am very proud of this book! It took over a year to get it printed the right way and everyone who owns a copy knows it’s a good looking book. My focus now is on promoting the book and getting new fans to discover ICECUBES.
In order to make that happen I have been driving hundreds of miles to conventions and meeting fans one on one to show them the book. The response has been great. Check out my convention schedule and come out and say hi! I have also been planning book signings in libraries and comic book shops. (Note: If anyone would like to organize an ICECUBES book signing, by all means get in touch with me!)
One thing all of you wonderful readers and fans can do to help is to buy your own copy of the new ICECUBES book! More book sales mean more income and more time for me to draw more strips! 🙂
To all of my readers I want to say thank you! Your support means everything and keeps me going. New strips are coming I promise, just at a little slower pace for now. I hope you’ll stick with me and keep on reading ICECUBES the comic strip!
Thanks!
