A Native Lad Book Release at Boscoe's

It is with horror that I realize I have been remiss in my duties as relentless self-promoter in failing to post the following:


HEYA, HEYA, HEYA, STEP RIGHT UP!...YOU! The gentleman in your pajamas with the two-day growth of beard, and YOU!... madam, YES... YOU with the lipstick on your teeth... The All-NEW, ALL-OLD, bareknuckle, blockbuster, boom'n'bust roller coaster graphic novel A NATIVE LAD, a history of our fair state celebrates its DEBUT with a signing party at the fabulous BOSCO'S Dimond location! That's right, on SATURDAY the 14th of August, author SARAH HURST and many of the illustrators behind this exciting collaboration will DANGLE FROM TENTERHOOKS, SHOOT OFF THEIR MOUTHS and most important SELL YOU THEIR BABY, Which they will be happy to sign in their own hand. That's BOSCO'S at Dimond, 1:00-3:3o Aug. 14. Thank you.

Just When You Thought It Was Safe To Go Back in History

In a surprise move, Sarah Hurst has requested that I do even more pages for her soon-to-be-published graphic novel version of Alaska History. What could I do? I said yes. Here are the two most recent. Two to go!

Latest Project: 1 of 5 pages from Sarah Hurst's graphic novel of Alaska history

Just finished my part of this inspired idea from Sarah Hurst. Sarah had the notion of turning a play she wrote about Alaska history into a graphic novel. Then, with focus and energy that I can only wonder at, she went out and came up with an Alaska Humanities Forum grant to actually pay a host of contributing artists for their work. Among the other artists involved: Lee Post and (last time I checked) Duke Russell.

Thanks to Sarah and the Rasmuson Foundation for this chance to try something new!
