Whew!
Man, long time no post!

Well, things have been craaaaaazy, so at least I have an excuse.

The news rundown--man, has it been that long since I updated?--my comic "Digger" was nominated for an Eisner, did not win an Eisner, (but it's an honor just to be nominated!) won both the WCCA awards for Outstanding Anthropomorphic and Outstanding Black and White. Volume II is out and can be ordered at www.sofawolf.com

Got a literary agent entirely by accident. Wrote a children's book, also partly by accident. Agent sold children's book to Harcourt Brace, not at all by accident (she's a hard workin' woman!), so look for "Nurk" (working title only) the saga of a shrew, a snailshell, and a villainous star-nosed mole coming to a bookstore near you, probably at least two years from now.

Seriously, if you've ever thought "Do I need an agent?" I can't reccomend the species highly enough. They do all the schmoozing and mailing and calling and stuff that I wouldn't want to do in a million years, AND they negotiate the contracts and feel no qualms about saying "Give us more money!" It's a Good Thing.

And of course, new art!
