Imitation of LIfe

This is a journal in the form of a comic strip. I've been doing it for a few years now, but every once in a while I clean out the older strips. You can check out a few [here]. I don't update that list each time I post a new comic, so the best way to read the most recent strips is to check the [log] on the front page of this site.

Up 'Til Now

For You Ain't No Dancer #2 from New Reliable Press , which called for stories on the theme of "youth." The book is set to debut later in 2006.

Update: I've taken the story offline, but I'll put up some preview pages soon.

In Due Time

For Flight Volume 3, forthcoming in summer 2006 from Ballantine Books/Random House.

Cloud Factory

I took a break from webcomics a few years ago and created this strip for an alternative weekly newspaper. Tej gets locked out of his apartment and wanders Pittsburgh looking for his keys, while his friend Sara discovers the work of a reclusive college professor. The strip ran for about 8 weeks (sometimes in color!) before the paper folded. I put some of the episodes on serializer.net, but it's now on an indefinite hiatus. I hope to return to it.
