Two different interviews with me just went up yesterday and today!
Going Last Podcast, episode 97
It was a pleasure talking with the Going Last folks about the Stumptown Comics Fest, my comic process and Strip Search, among other things. The site appears a little borked at the moment, but here’s a link to the MP3 of our chat.
Stumptown Comics Fest Reaches Its 10th Year on the Examiner
Got to share some of my insights and opinions after having exhibited at every single STCF ever and being one of its Special Guests this year.
Tonight Jeff Parker (Author of Bucko, the graphic novel I drew in 2011) and I will be guest DJing and being interviewed on The Karl Show! (Starring Jason).
It will be broadcasting live on The Portland Radio Authority tonight from 8 – 10pm (PST), and then the episode will be released as a podcast here after the fact.
You can leave questions/comments for us to address on the Karl Show! (Starring Jason)’s Facebook page.

Leia Weathington and Erika Moen on Cort and Fatboy!
Leia Weathington and Erika Moen are Smut Peddlers. Or at least, they’re comics creators who have contributed a 7 page opus de smut to contribute to an independent tome of lady-centric comics pornography. What the hell does any of that even mean? It’s so much better to hear them tell it, as well as the story of how they came to be collaborators, and what it’s like to work at Periscope Studios, apparently an oasis of sanity and awesomeosity in an industry not so much known for either things. Erika also breaks down the inspired question from Jeff Parker at the heart of her collaboration with him, “Bucko,” and since we’re discussing the art of titillation, it only makes sense that Paul Ryan’s pictures come up for discussion. BONUS: Leia and Bobby slapfight each other over fashion and mispronunciations!
Where to find the things we talk about:
-Buy The Sexy Times Poster
-Buy Smut Peddler
-Buy Bucko: Customized by Erika, Regular, Things From Another World, Powell’s, or Amazon
-Come see Leia and me read our Smut Peddler story at Comics Underground on October 18th at the Jack London Bar at 529 SW 4th Ave, Portland, 8pm.
Original Post: Dan Savage Podcast
Holy craaaaaaaaaaaap my call made it onto episode 271 of the Savage Love Cast! (I can’t seem to find a functional permalink to that entry, so if you can’t find the episode, here is a direct link to the .mp3)
My call starts at the 2:30 mark. It is the first one! The first one!!!!
Hey guys! Once a year for the last three, my good friends Katie Lane, Dylan Meconis, Bill Mudron, and I have gathered together to record a podcast about the ins and outs of being a self-employed freelancer. If you missed our live broadcasting, fret not! For recordings, both podcast and video, are here! For you! It is a two-hour long ordeal, so they’ve been broken into two, roughly hour-long segments. Podcast Version (From Work Made For Hire):
Man, with the holidays coming up, surely you are looking for some finely crafted goods to give as presents, right? Lemme just point your eyeballs to: Bill Mudron’s Shop Dylan Meconis’ Shop My Shop and original artwork
“Self-Publishing Like a Rockstar” was the very first panel I’ve ever organized and hoo boy was I nervous! Fortunately Meredith Gran, Shaennon Garrity and Lucy Knisley agreed to speak on it and share their knowledge with the standing-room-only crowd.
For those of you who could not make it to the Stumptown Comics Fest and listen to our panel in th’ reals, I have made, just for you, an annotated recording!
Thanks to Star St. Germain for loaning me her super fancy microphone and Aaron Duran for fixing the audio file so that it is actually listenable.
While there are no graphics in the above video, I have included (I hope) helpful notes written throughout to direct people towards the resources we mention and serve as visual bookmarks for the specific topics and questions we cover.
A podcast interview I did last weekend with the swell dudes over at Stumptown Trade Review :) It’s only about 10 minutes long and my voice is surprisingly not as chipmunk-y as one would expect.
We talk about why I quit DAR! and the various reactions I’ve received for making comics about my sexual identity evolution.
