So, in after a few years of pretty much flying by the seat of my pants, financially, in two weeks my circumstances will be changing somewhat, and I will finally have some disposable income on a regular basis again. This is a really good thing, and I’m looking forward to it immensely.
But for the next two weeks, I’m still pretty much skint. And tomorrow is my other half’s...
Do you want the Hypergirl hardcover?
iandsharman:
Expecting to pick it up at Kapow! or a convention after that?
Markosia are anticipating selling out at Bristol. So unless you’ve pre-ordered the book for pick up at Kapow! there’s a good chance there will be none left by then.

#TwitterComic2012 - Honeybun And The Magic Buttons...
I just finished (literally, like 20 minutes ago) my first ever 24 Hour Comic, that is also a Twitter Comic, written using suggestions recieved in real time on twitter. I am too tired to explain. You can find out more at mombcomics.com and you should go there all the time anyway. So, here’s the comic, in it’s entirety. Enjoy! See the full gallery on...

JUST A REMINDER →
…That I have a personal tumblr which can be found here and is updated much more often than this one, which I’m keeping strictly focused on just my comics and art.

– COMICS OR STFU: On writing short stories, etc.
I’m glad the incomparable Ms Cloonan wrote this, because now when people ask me how I make my comics, I can just refer them directly to this. This is EXACTLY the same process I use. Nice to know I’m not alone.
#Twittercomic2012 Open Call For Ideas →
mombcast:
In November 2011, over 12 hours David Wynne and our friends on Twitter helped us create an amazing Twittercomic, the likes of which this world had only almost kinda seen before. And will now see AGAIN. David is visiting us here in fragrant Southampton in a couple of weeks to do a 24 hour comic, and we’re taking ideas for it NOW! Go to the link to find out about last year’s comic, and...

London Super Comic Con
Was awesome.
I am still kind of exhausted. I’ve never had a sketching experience like that before, where the demand was just constant. Both days I ended up having to close for sketches at about 4pm because I knew I wouldn’t be able to do any more and have them be any good.
I have decided that from my next con onwards, I’m going to charge extra if people want to appear in their...

WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT NOISE?
– The supervisor on the morning shift on coming in to my office to relieve me, and hearing “Fire Up The Tambourine” by Hey Colossus playing on my laptop.
Please help spread the word about the Thai...
My sister regularly travels to Thailand to work with WFFT, an organisation that rescues and looks after endangered animals that have been mistreated in captivity. It’s hard work, and she does it as a volunteer. Like everyone who works there, she does it because she cares.
Recently, the WFFT criticised the Thai government over the killing of elephants at Kaengkrachan National Park and...

First Weekly Round Up From My Other Tumblr
I have two tumblr blogs. This one, which is for stuff relating to my art and comics, and bigfootrock.tumblr.com, which is more of a personal blog, where I mainly reblog stuff I like but also occasionally talk about stuff and post other things too. Of course, there’s a good chance that if you follow this one, there may be things on the other that will interest you, so I’ve decided to...
Go Buy Prints Of My Art (If You Want To) →
There’s a couple of Ideasman pieces available there (including the one from the previous post) as well as a few of those geek-heroes-as-musicians pieces from last autumn. I get 25% of any purchase you make, so do consider getting the most expensive options so I can buy that Norwegian castle I’ve been dreaming about.

Would anybody be interested in buying this as a print? I can make that happen. Posted via email from PARTICLE FICTION | Comment »
THINGS I WOULD LIKE YOU TO KNOW
Yesterday I posted a quick rundown of some of my comics that are available to read for free online- and also Hypergirl, which isn’t free, but is reasonably priced, and, yknow, award-winning. What? You know I’m going to keep pointing that out.
Anyway, it occurred to me a bit later that Sunday evening might actually be the least effective time to post such a thing, so that’s why...

My goodness, Jackie, that’s a lot of books. I thought *my* pull list was...
My Stuff
In recent months quite a few new people seem to have stumbled across me either here or on twitter. Seems like a good time to do one of those “who I am and where I am” type posts like Warren Ellis does from time to time.
So, my name is David Wynne, and while I make my living working as a hospital porter on the night shift, the thing I want you all to know about me is that I am a...
PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT (repeat)
I have decided from here on to keep this tumblr strictly business, from now on all you’ll find here is art and stuff that is in some way related to my comics work.
For more social networky type stuff - rebloggings, gif wars and general fun- I’ll be over at bigfootrock.tumblr.com so please follow me there for that kind of thing. I’ve got an ask box there and everything.
PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT
So, tumblr cause me consternation- on the one hand, I want to take part in the social aspect, reblog stuff, have gif wars and all that; on the other hand, I like being able to link people to my blog and have them understand what they find there.
Now, as it happens, I do have a second tumblr, bigfootrock.tumblr.com - and it’s FINALLY occurred to me that I should use that for the social...
