My online comic strip, Mr. Smoozles, will soon reach the 300 mark, which is a pretty good achievement, but one I couldn’t have done without the valuable help of Stefano. We have something a little special lined up for strip 300 and then we build on that over the coming months. Please be sure not …
I’m in Paris doing some promotional work for So Blonde. The original intention was to combine this with a short holiday with June, but she had a fall before we came away and wasn’t up to the trip. So I find myself alone in my hotet room with some time to spare so I thought …
I’ve just posted the latest Mr. Smoozles strip and it’s a special one done to mark 250 strips and still going strong. Much praise must be heaped on Stefano, the artist on the strip, who has done a remarkable job making it so special visually. Please be warned that it’s quite a large file – …
I’ve just posted the 243rd Mr. Smoozles strip, so as you can see we’re rapidly approaching the 250th installment. Stefano and I have already started planning something special and what was going to be a single bumper strip marking the event now looks as though it might spread into one or two more. So look …
I’ve just received the latest strip from Stefano and have posted it on the website. He’s adding a wonderful depth to the strips with his approach. We’re going to have lots of fun with this storyline. Stay tuned for more updates!
After a slight delay, another strip has been posted on the Mr. Smoozles site. Stefano is beginning to get into his stride, I think. Let us know what you think of the latest direction.
The second of the new strips with art by Stefano has just gone up onto the Mr. Smoozles site. It feels a little strange seeing someone else “handle” my characters, but as long as Stefano continues to do a great job I’ll be happy.
Mr. Smoozles makes a comeback with a new strip today! Artist Stefano Collavini contacted me a few weeks ago about the possibility of drawing the strip. It’s taken him a little while to fully get into the characters (much of that being that I’m a picky sod ove my characters) but we’re at last up …
It looks like the comic strips are going to be on an extended hiatus for the forseeable future. So far, I’ve had no luck in finding artists to help me out that would maintain the kind of style I would want for the strip. Although it isn’t something I want to do, I’m entering a …
As much as I’d love to press on with the comic strips, they really have been taking up more time than I would like and I need to put more emphasis on my writing, particularly over the coming months with the game related projects I’m becoming involved in. I’ve also been putting off the development …
I find that I’m at a strange place with my comic strips. I’m really struggling to make the time to create them, yet I’m enjoying writing them. The answer, then, seems to be to find artists who I can work with and who will maintain the vision. While I appreciate that an artist will want …
I was on the verge of putting Mr. Smoozles on hold for a while as I was a little unhappy with some of the scripts I’d written, then I had a minor brainwave. Today (Wed 25th April) sees the start of a longer ongoing story for Mr. Smoozles and the large team of characters. I …
