Kameoka Diaries #2 — Friends

(If you haven't seen it yet, part one can be found here.)

The e-books in the previous installment didn't get too many downloads, so I think I'll skip making those for the time being. Though if people want them lemme know, and if enough people do I'll put them up. Otherwise maybe once I have a bunch done I could package them as one big e-book and sell that on iBooks for 99 cents or something. We'll see!

Anyway, without further adieu, here's the second installment:

Kameoka Diaries #1 — Self-Introduction

Happy New Year, Everyone!

Below you'll find my first webcomic in about a year. Hopefully it'll be the first in a mini-series.

I'm trying to experiment with smart phone-friendly comics, so I formatted this as a couple of e-books. The content is the same for both, but the first one is lower resolution, and should work well on iPhone 3-type screens. The second is higher resolution, and should work well for iPhone 4-type screens.

You'll need an e-reader app installed to look at these, but there are many free ones available (such as iBooks).

Anyway, here are the files:

The Kameoka Diaries #1 Ebook

File Size: 1.04MB

Panel Size: 252px x 346px

The Kameoka Diaries #1 HD Ebook

File Size: 3.74MB

Panel Size: 504px x 691px

Like I said, this is an experiment. I'd really appreciate any feedback. If these files didn't work for you or format incorrectly on your device, please let me know what device you were using and what the problem was. No issue is too small or nitpicky. This will help me improve future installments. Thanks!!

Or for those of you who would prefer to view it online, here it is:

Tonoharu: Official Selection at Angoulême Comics Festival!

Cool news! The French version of Tonoharu has been chosen as an official selection for the Angoulême International Comics Festival, Europe's largest comics festival!

Tonoharu is one of 58 books chosen as an official selection. As I understand it, a few thousand books were eligible, so it's a pretty big deal and a real honor.

This puts Tonoharu in the running for some of the most prestigious awards in comics. (And no, "prestigious comics award" is not an oxymoron.) Looking over my competition (which includes comics greats like Dan Clowes, Jim Woodring, Craig Thompson, and Joe Sacco, just to name a few) I think its fair to say I don't have a snowball's chance in hell at the top prize, or even the Angoulême International Comics Festival Essentials prize, which is awarded to five books. But I might have a shot at the best newcomer award or something.

Awards will be announced at the festival in late-January. I'll keep you posted!

My sincere thanks to my French publisher Le Lezard Noir, (in particular Stéphane Duval and Anne Cavarroc) for producing such a beautiful edition of my book!
