Greetings!
I hope everyone reading this is having a good day. If you are not reading this then… well… I’m not talking to you anyway. For those of you reading, please continue.
I believe I’m starting to find a better balance for projects and everything else I need to do in life. (I thought it was a decent amount of progress this weekend anyway.)
For one thing I was able to go through and bag up a bunch of my old comic books that needed tending to. Yes, I found it relaxing just sitting quietly and listening to music and a few podcasts while stuffing funny books into plastic bags. HEHE In truth I don’t have that many ‘funny’ comics, they are mostly sci-fi, superhero, and some horror. Which now that I think about it seems a little odd for Doctor Xombie (my horror host alter-ego if you hadn’t figure that out yet).
If you have any favorite books feel free to leave a comment below or e-mail. I’d love to hear from you.
I also met up with a buddy of mine and discussed future projects and possible collaborations.
He recommended the ‘Webcomics Handbook’. I flipped through it and saw that it had TONS of useful info and instructions on how to get a webcomic made. Instructions from start to finish.
I went to the book store looking but didn’t see it. Me being impatient went ahead and picked up this one instead since it was physically in my hands and I could jump right into it. (I also like that it has a lot of fun cartoons and side-bars with useful tips from the ‘pros’). And I figured we could trade info and tips that one or the other might not have. It not only covers webcomics but also comic books, manga, and publishing in general. Great stuff so far including writing, drawing, coloring, and program tips to get you up and running.
So as you might have figured out I do plan on starting work a comic strip/book in the near future as well as the prose stories. Speaking of which…
Here are a few thumbnail drawings of possible covers for the forthcoming short story collection which actually has a title now!
“The Adventures Of Doctor Xombie And Fiends”
(subtitled “Mostly True Tales Of A TV Horror Host”).
As they are preliminary thumbnails things might change, but I did want to give you a little glimpse into how things are progressing and the process of putting this together. I’m very excited about this book and hope you will enjoy it as well. It might seem silly but I do love the title. I think it really conveys who and what the book is about.
Remember to leave a comment and/or head on over to Facebook and let me know what’s what.
Thank you again for sticking around for this installment. I’ll be back again next week with more.
A little flash fiction:
Doctor Xombie
and the
Boots Of Baltar
By
Roger L. Boyes
The “Boots of Baltar’ were stored in the deepest caverns of the planet Shalock. The people of the Great House Atros set a challenge that said anyone who could reach the center of the labyrinth and claim the boots would, in addition to the boots, gain a wondrous treasure and a title befitting a lord of the land.
Many natives of the surrounding cities and quite a few off-worlders had tried, but all had either returned in a crazed state or not returned at all. There were said to be monsters and treacherous traps of all kinds, but that didn’t stop the brave and the foolish from testing their skills and their lives so that they, the lowly everyman, could be bestowed with such honor.
Doctor Xombie heard the legend from a wandering robot monk he had met on Diom Four. He needed some new boots, so he jumped in his coffin ship, the Toe Pincher, and swooped over to the planet, scanned the underground terrain, and rematerialized his ship to the labyrinth’s center. He jumped out, took a look at the metal decorated leather boots, and tried them on.
He jumped up and down a couple of times to test them out. “Perfect fit!” he cried as his voice echoed around the chamber. He started to leave but then remembered something.
He grabbed his old dusty worn out Xombie Stomper boots and placed them upon the pedestal where the new ones had, just moments before, been displayed in all their shiny splendor.
His ship took off with him and his new boots inside, never to be seen on the planet again.
I just wanted to give you all a small update on how things are progressing.
The Horror Host Handbook is chugging along nicely and should be completed early to mid next year. Lots of good info in this one. It just keeps getting bigger and bigger!
I’m really excited about the Doctor Xombie short stories collection! If you’ve seen Doctor Xombie and Fiends’ ‘live’ spookshows at the Zephyrhills Home Theatre then you should really get a kick out of this collection. It’s Doctor Xombie unleashed from time and budget constraints. This has everything from small “slice-of-death” quickies to longer adventures through time and space!
