I thought I would post a note and links as to what I'm doing right now:

Okay, first of all, my latest graphic novel, The War at Ellsmere is out on DECEMBER 3rd!!!! Yes, I know, you're tired of me yelling about that. But in case you've forgotten, that's when it's coming out. So try your local comic store and buy a copy! I think it's a significant improvement over Zombies Calling, which most people seemed to like anyway, so ... it should be extra awesome! (I hope.)
Website for Ellsmere (contains a preview of the book): www.faitherinhicks.com/ellsmer…

Also, SLG Publishing and I are doing an art-related contest to celebrate the release of the book. There's still time to enter, and there's lovely prizes like original art or a signed copy of the book. Go here for info: slg-news.livejournal.com/29087…
Due date is DECEMBER 8 for entries, so get arting!

If you're in the Halifax or Toronto areas, there will be signings for the book over the holidays. I'll be sure to post about them here, when I get the final word.

What's next for me: I'm currently working on a new graphic novel for First Second Books, the graphic novel imprint of gigantic New York publisher Macmillan. I know, I'm as shocked as you are. To read about my wacky adventures and how I got the job, go here: smuu.livejournal.com/632923.ht…

Yes, very wacky.

Otherwise, I'm looking forward to Christmas and eating lots of turkey and getting fat. Really, there's nothing better. :)

Ok so I read Zombies Calling and was surprised by it. It is probably the first comic that I've bought in ten years. I've always had a bit of a zombie fetish ( in fact I either own or have seen just about every zombie movie out) and to be honest I think the only reason I bought the book was because I was in a pissed off mood that day and and I wanted some thing concrete to bitch about. That is the only way your book disappointed me. I loved every part of it. I've now read it three or four times now and the feelings haven't changed. Thank you for the great read.
