World War Weird

One man's baffeling journey out of the snarling maw of depression by means of horrible artwork.  Watch and read as I tackle my mental illness by attempting to approve my skills of an artist.

I haven’t posted anything in a LONG time. What’s the best way to catch up — one big post or lots of littles posts? Here’s some stuff to get the transition started.

Beyond the Wall of Sleep II

Jon Stone, a challenger in a post-apocalyptic wrestling comic I've been working on with a friend.

After contributing to a zine for a zine jam last month, I got the itch to make my own. I'm now hip deep in a zine about doing stuff with your friends called Tango. I started by drawing portraits of my friends who will inevitably star in it.

Chuck hadn’t been able to sleep — going on three days with maybe an hour or two each night, then winking through each day with coffee and…

"Chuck’s mouth fell agape as the cogs in his brain attempted to churn and process what he was seeing. Sunlight poured into his yard and onto his house from directly above, but surrounding his house, from the street then up along the sides and — he imagined — down his backyard was a wall of empty, impenetrable darkness."

Over on Medium you can read my latest short story, The Static Behind the Curtain. It's a surrealist horror story about isolation, insomnia, and how family stick together (or break apart) during periods of trauma and uncertainty.

Thrill Ride

As far as I’m concerned, Romero created them. Bela Lugosi may have ushered them into America with White Zombie, but they were still hazy…

"A soft crunch popped into the air, and by the time it passed through my ears, Jared had struck the creature’s head again. Blood sprayed all around the area of impact, giving Jared and the surrounding walls spatters of crimson. It fell to its knees, and Jared jumped onto the floor with it. He bashed it across the face, and I heard the familiar crackling of a broken nose."

Cruise on over to Medium to read Thrill Ride, a short story I wrote about zombies, theme parks, and the ever-shifting dynamics of young friendships.
