    I'm an ex-comic book fan who occasionally relapses. Not that I have anything against comics, but when I started playing bass, my financial priorities changed.

    I was a big fan of certain artists like Bernie Wrightson, Kelly Jones and the guy who did V for Vendetta. I liked Frank Miller too, although I think his Dark Knight sequel was horrible looking.

    Ahh, I see most of us have given up the old comic-reading habit...shucks. :(

    I was hoping to get some traffic to my new site (comic-related). If you are interested in checking it out, it would make my day!

    Non-profit, just making it for portfolio purposes and for fun. :)

    Hey Dakota, yes writing for video games does count! Which game did you write some things for? Is your fiction posted somewhere online?

    Hi Dakota, extremely impressive resume and current project! The moment where you quit Radio and Television and went back to computer games was such a pivotal moment in your life, wasn't it? It's very inspiring, actually!

    I graduated from the University of Texas at Austin. I even visited Origin a few times back when it was located on Research Blvd. That was a long time ago...

    I am currently trying to build my resume and portfolio. If you have a moment, please visit my website (the link is above). Thanks for your time!
