Two weeks doing humanitarian work in a 3rd world country can give a person perspective. This podcast deals with the snares of social media. Listen at your own risk. You may want to stop using social media while you listen to it. I encourage you to stop the audio midstream and shut it down! But…
This long format interview is with the multi-award winning illustrator Kelly Mellings. I ask him a bunch of questions about growing in craft as an illustrator. We chat some about style and he talks about the national best selling graphic novel, The Outside Circle, which he illustrated. The graphic novel was written by Patti LaBoucane…
Hello all! It’s been an excessively long while since I touched this blog. Last week I opened the doors on a patreon page. https://www.patreon.com/coreylansdell It’s in support of a story I’m writing. I’d be so pleased if you checked it out. Also! I’ve been creating youtube content for over a year now. Please go check…
Last year, I faced the turning of my years from 36 to 37 with humour. How many of you recall the scene in Monty Python Quest for the Holy Grail where Arthur has a conversation with Dennis the peasant. “I’m not old, I’m 37” Dennis retorts after being called old by his King. Well. I’m…
Nine weeks had come and gone, several attempts at communication went unanswered, the story had begun developing a thin layer of dust and my optimism wavered. Then, finally, on Friday last I made contact with my editor. *Phew* – deep exhalation. I can finally breathe again. I had a good, short, conversation with the editor…
Good day!Happy near end of summer! Hope you had some water fights this summer. It’s been almost 2 months since the last feedback I received from the editor. Since then, I did some reworks to the book and re-submitted my script to them, which was about 5 weeks ago. I’ve exchanged a couple emails with…
It’s been a month and a half since I was in Toronto for the Toronto Comic Arts Festival. Just over three weeks ago I delivered the rough manuscript and page roughs for SHELTER to one of the publishers we met while there. An illustration I did recently for a client. I was able to incorporate the…
A week and a half ago now I touched down at YEG Airport sitting in seat 25E (I think) next to a wonderful human being, talented artist and constant inspiration. We had just spent the last 4 hrs writing the script and some panel breakdowns for an Intellectual Property we’re working on. (IP if your…
http://coreylansdell.tumblr.com/post/120738945639/enjoyed-soccer-tonight-cutest-little-girl-had It’s been a great while since I posted on this blog. I just spent an hour fixing all the broken image links. So the site at least looks somewhat as it used to. This post is going to be very short. I’m back on the horse. I’ll be heading to Toronto in May with…
Hello! I’ve been doing stuff. What stuff you ask? Voila: I’ve been reading. A great read on writing – I guess I’d say it’s been inspiring. I’m not sure that the progress of the writing was 100% a result of this book, however, it has given me much to think about. I’m still reading it….
