Since I’ve been an author, this is only my third guest appearance on a podcast. It’s my very first video livestream. My first was with Winston Crutchfield (a stand-up guy) back in 2011 or so. My next was circa 2015. After that, I figured, “There, I’ve done it. Now I can go back into hibernation.”
As my wife and other family will tell you, I don’t really like being in the spotlight. I want people to buy my books and give them nice reviews, allowing me to stay sequestered like a hermit while I work on projects important to me. But those desires are pretty much mutually exclusive in today’s entertainment sphere.
I’m an unknown rookie in comic books, yet I have to start building an audience now so that some readers will come to back my campaign when my graphic novel is ready for the printer. You gotta have a crowd before you can crowdfund, as the saying goes. So I put a profile pic up on my social media accounts showing my face instead of the cool avatars I prefer to use, and I’m reaching out to podcasters/livestreamers for interviews.
Kudos to Ulysses of Comics Odyssey for his laid back approach and his own passion for comics which made the whole experience enjoyable.
Thanks again to Ulysses for giving me a shot and his time to make this happen. This might have been the perfect way for me to get my feet wet.
I hope you all will show him some love with likes and reposts. Also, he’s working on a comic project of his own now you might consider checking out when he finishes.
And hey, did you know the Paradox digital”box set” is published? At an everyday bargain price, too.
Leave a comment if you liked the interview, and/or if you would buy a doorstop-sized paperback or hardcover of Paradox if I make one available.
