Hello

Between my Instagram, Patreon, Facebook and occasional Twitter, I pretty much forgot to regularly update my blog.

Here are a couple events I’ll be doing in the next week:

-On Tuesday, June 12th The Hand of Comedy in Bushwick, hosted by Claudia Cogan. I’ll be performing a bunch of funny and probably inappropriate animal comics, kind of like the one below.

-Then on Thursday, June 14th I’ll be performing with the stellar line-up of Michael Kupperman, Lauren Weinstein and Ron Rege Jr. at Greenlight Bookstore. I’ll present a different set of comics for this one, less comedic, more dramatic.

-Ron Rege, Jr has a new book out and will also be doing an event at Desert Island on Wednesday, June 13th, to celebrate his new book, The Weaver Festival Phenomenon.

And if you haven’t seen it, I had a comic recently on the New Yorker shouts site, about Tinder, which seems to have struck a chord among all the lonely people everywhere.

-I’ve also had a couple comics featured on the comics site Spiralbound, and will have another one coming up there soon!

That’s about it for now!

Over on my Etsy page, I’m slashing the prices on my books and posters for the holidays AND including free preliminary sketch pages with Everything is Flammable and Truth is Fragmentary. ALSO Truth is Fragmentary is only ten dollars.*  AM I CRAZY?! No, this is just how business works during the holiday season!!!

*NOTE: Truth is Fragmentary is temporarily sold out, and the deal will be on again as soon as it’s restocked. Apologies.

This Saturday I’ll be at Wordstock in Portland, Oregon. I’ll be presenting in a panel called You Can’t Go Home Again with Jenny Forrester, Wendy Willis and Kate Carroll de Gutes at 11:30 AM, followed by a signing, at the Wordstock stage at the Oregon Historical Society, 1200 SW Park Ave.

Also, I’ve got a comic today on the shouts page for The New Yorker, check it out!

I’ll be at Artists and Fleas in Williamsburg (70 North 7th street, by the Bedford station on the L train) selling portraits, artwork and books all weekend (Saturday & Sunday, 10:00 AM to 7:00 PM).

Come by, have a portrait drawn, buy a comic or just say hi!

Julia Wertz is in town promoting her amazing new book Tenements, Towers & Trash, and she’s invited me to celebrate with her. Also, I’m doing an event at Strand Books for the newest Best American Comics, guest-edited by Ben Katchor. Here is a schedule of events:

Monday, October 2nd: Panels to the People at Word Brooklyn with Julia, Lauren Barnett and me. Sorry, all you extraordinary people not on Facebook (how do you manage?), but I can only find a link there. But it’s at Word Brooklyn in Greenpoint,126 Franklin St, Brooklyn, New York 11222, from seven to nine.
