Flotsam

Okay, here’s some stuff that’s floating around and I think is quite interesting. There are a few creators talking about their experience in the industry. If this has any interest to you check them out. There is Devin Grayson, Pia Guerra, and Terry Moore.

Erik Larsen presents a cracking good column in this week’s One Fan’s Opinion. It’s a great exploration on how artist (all creative types really) should always be challenging themselves to grow and evolve. I’m really liking this column.

I’m trying to focus on the positive aspects of the online comics community but I think Highway 62 has posted the cat, or wolf in this case. If you don't know what that means and don't want to read the explination it's the blog-o-sphere's version of Jumping the Shark.

Also, please have your say here – just scroll down to the bolded question if you don’t want to read the rest of the post.

Hey Jon. Just thought you (and your readers) would like to know about a way to help drum up funds for the relief efforts in the wake of Hurricane Katrina. Just head on over to my blog (The Comic asylum) to learn about the details. Thanks. :)

James, thanks for the heads up. I've been waffling about posting on the hurricane because I felt it was being covered better elsewhere. So I've decided to issue a bit of a challenge to us comics fans to donate what we would spend on comics in a week to charity or to match what we spend on comics with a charitable donation. Also, I'm trying to get info about how Canucks can help out.
