I’ve been working slowly on art for a graphic novel pitch. It’s currently called Cratediggers and it’s about three highschool friends in their first year of university in London in 2012. They’ve spent their teenage years looking for a rumoured bootleg of their favourite band’s final show, and a new lead pops up. Isaac, the main character, has been happily existing in the middle ground between the stronger personalities of his two best friends for years. Julia’s flourishing in university, she knows where she wants to go and she’s loving meeting new people - like Dylan. Tim’s really struggling, both with change and herself. They belong to an online forum for fans of the defunct 80s punk band Undying Spite, where they meet the much older Paul.
It’s about dealing with changes (in yourself, in others, in life), making decisions on where to go next, and music.
I wrote the script a few years ago, it's about 330 pages and full of niche references. I hope I get to draw it - I may never get through all the scripts I've written, but I'll try. I write a lot.
