What A Great Idea! Let Me Help
You've come up with a great idea for a comic book or graphic novel. You've talked to your friends about it and they love it. The problem is, you don't really know where to start. Maybe you're not a writer. Maybe you just need some help organizing your thoughts.
That's where story development comes in. It's a service I offer to help turn your ideas into something more substantial.

Fresh Ink, Fresh Blood
October brings out the worst in me in the best way. This week, I finished 3 short horror comic book stories that I plan on turning into a single issue horror anthology. These aren't commissioned stories, but rather a personal project I've been working on in my spare time. Once completed, I plan to make the anthology available at future comic conventions. It will be in the same vein as Creepshow or Tales From The Crypt comics.
