Did I mention how much fun I'm having?


So anyway - working on this project is way more fun than getting hit by a car twice. Wait, have I mentioned that I've been hit by two different cars both while riding a bike? - not the same bike different bikes...and different cars - different years - and different drivers...I don't think they knew each other...both my fault. I did however learn two big lessons - 1) I am stupid and 2) I want to be in the car the next time I get hit.

But wait - this is supposed to be about illustration, ebooks, writing, apps, formating, tablets, ereaders, etc.

Ok, Status: All of these monster sketches are for an ipad / iphone app that I'm making. It will: have a story, be interactive, be in color, be animal friendly, eco friendly, kid friendly, and car friendly....It will have friends.

    Yes Will - I put you on the "monster app friend list" :)Thanks Antoana and Karen!

    Patti - I'm using "brushes" on my ipad to make all of these sketches - I love working this way - I haven't drawn on paper for about 4 months now.

    I love this one, great job! It's always the giant monsters that cry the loudest when a little rodent takes a nibble.

    I hope you had your helmet on!! (I'm a mom...)
    Can you blog some light on the subject of why you use an imprint NAME for your ebooks, one for the folioacademy, and maybe theres one more for your illustration business rather than just YOUR NAME for the I.R.S.?
    Is this a smart business advantage or marketing recognition? Another opportunity for a list of pros and cons??
    Please?

    Thanks guys!

    I had a helmet on for the second crash!

    I use different names in preparation for success as well as IRS compartmentalization. If one or more of my little ventures takes off I want to have a name I don't hate going along with it. It's a brand recognition thing too. I guess one of the "cons" is it costs a little more money up front to set up different entities - however some of my companies own multiple properties.

    Love the fun monster. Also, you should write a fun book about bike safety. :)
