These are some things I am known for:

------------------------------------

LACKLUSTER WORLD:
I write / illustrate / self-publish the comic book series, LACKLUSTER WORLD. If you were to ask me what it's about I would say something to the effect of:

A man with albinism (Fahrenheit Monahan) uses vandalism and his career as a newspaper journalist to try to change his lackluster world before it changes him, but more often than not he's fighting off his fanatically religious brother and sister (Kelvin and Celsius). In movie terms: It's like FIGHT CLUB and OFFICESPACE in PLEASANTVILLE.

Five of seven issues are out now. #6 and #7 are due out in early 2009. You can read previews of each issue and purchase them at the official LW site.

------------------------------------

OTHER COMIC WORKS:
Sometimes I 'm the writer. Sometimes I'm the aritst. Most times, I'm both...

STUART: I illustrated this short story which ran in NEGATIVE BURN #9. You can read all six pages of it on my site. Someday, Chris (the writer) and I are going to do a full graphic novel of the little guy.

(SECRET TITLE): Very recently, I scripted a 12-page scifi story and it is being illustrated by (SECRET TALENTED ARTIST). Originally intended to be a digest sized one-shot, it looks like it may hit the web first. Obviously, I can't say much yet, but it's real and I'll tell you all about it this Summer.

HWSM: This is an acronym for a graphic novel I'm writing. I won't be the artist. No further details to share yet.

PL: Another acronym. It's been an on-and-off writing project for the past year. I will likely illustrate this one myself, but that's no guarantee.

------------------------------------

SEQUENTIAL SMARTS:
In 2006, I wrote a weekly column for Newsarama.com entitled SEQUENTIAL SMARTS. It was dedicated to the topic of marketing comics from a self-publishing/small press perspective. Here's the link to the tenth and final (for now at least) installment. It links back to the previous nine:

------------------------------------

GRAPHIC AND WEB DESIGN:
I am one of three partners running Turnstyle Creative in Cincinnati, OH. At our core, we are a graphic design and creative agency, but we branch out into marketing, video production, advanced web/database programming and a lot more.

Our website kind of isn't one, but you can look if you want.

Hey Eric,

I reviewed LW #1 in Comics Buyer's Guide when it came out; sorry I kept missing you at the last Motor City Con you attended. Love your stuff, though. Thanks for the add!

Yes, it sounds fun... I'll definitely have to check it out.

Thanks for the add! Fellow Ohio resident here. I really dig your work!

Thanks back at you. Not many Ohio folks in here it seems.

Since you're Columbus, will you be checking out S.P.A.C.E. in April?
