A Thank-You and Some Links

[thebookpile]

I love it when someone directs me towards a good book. It's even more amazing when I get put on the trail of an entire genre.

That's how I feel about graphic novels. I kinda, sorta knew that they existed but I had never read any. That was before I was friended by vonandmoggy . You see, Von has been working on a graphic novel and I've been lurking on his blog (which he shares with Moggy) watching his progress as he worked to complete his story and get it published. It encouraged me to seek out some other graphic novels and now I can't imagine my bookshelf without Blankets, Maus or Persepolis. Both The Missus and I are hooked.

So I want to make sure that any of you reading this blog take a look at what he's cooked up! His novel, the road to god knows..., is freely available online at GirlAMatic.com. Go have a read!

Also, Von has also published a set of short stories that include characters from the novel, called Li'l Kids. Von has made it available online as a PDF (under a Creative Commons license), and a print version is also available for those interested! See the website for more details.

Aw, that's sweet! Thanks very much for that.

Hey, wait! Shouldn't I be owed royalties on those sales? Damn it! :)
