Oms en Serie promo video



My French publisher Ankama is ramping up the promo for my book, Oms en Serie, as well as the entire Stefan Wul line of books! Check out this little vid they made for the book.

Pretty cool, even if you can't read French ;-)

Best,

Oms en Serie visual diary XVIII





Hey everyone!

Things are heating up on the "Oms en Serie" front! The book is just about done, and Ankama is working their magic on the Wul line of books. Just saw a really cool treatment for the cover, and I'm damned excited!

I will post more info soon, but for now enjoy this page from the book.My publisher Ankama,series writer JD Morvan, and the amazing Olivier Vatine,  have all been floating this page, as well as some other images, on Facebook.  So I figure it's cool to share here.

Olivier is working on Niourk, another Wul novel, and I gotta tell you it's looking fantastic! Check him out on Facebook.

Enjoy!

Conversations with my kid

Scene:My living room. I'm laying on the sofa, sketching in a sketchbook. My 8YO daughter sits next to me, holding her sketchbook.

8YO "Dad, what'cha doin'?"

Me "Taking a break from work."

8YO "So, you take a break from drawin' to draw?"

Me "Yeah..weird, huh?"

8YO "Nope. It's good to draw stuff you want to draw, instead of always drawing what people tell you to draw."

Me (Stops sketching, looking up) "...how'd you get so smart?"

8YO (Opens sketchbook, starts drawing) "I'don't know."

Me (back to sketching) "Cool."

Curtains close on a genius and her dad sketching on a sofa.
