Originally published in The Kansas City Star, here in its entirety is the latest and greatest from our favorite and yours. Written by yours truly and drawn by Rob Thomas look-a-like Duane Cunningham.

The Black Chamber – The Making (and Making and Making) of a Graphic Novel

Hey Gang,

Leading up to the publication of my first graphic novel, The Black Chamber, I’ll be posting all of the great behind-the-scenes stuff on my journey to completing the book.

Joy! at the efforts of a young man with a dream!
Pity! when he finds out he’ll have to draw it himself!
Cheer! along with him at his noble efforts to relearn to draw!
Jeer! at all of his false steps!
Laugh! at the fact that he’s made five attempts at finishing, all in different styles!

This is my first attempt at writing and drawing a complete 96 page graphic novel. This is the story of my three year travel in completing it. This is The Black Chamber.
