And if they aren't, why are they doing it???

Click on each highlighted word for a different link to what I've done:

Mark Arnold here, Editor and Publisher of The Harveyville Fun Times!

My latest projects for 2009 include a book called "If You're Cracked, You're Happy: The Cracked Mazagine Story" for BearManor Media, , and various articles in Back Issue magazine.

I'm also contributing material for the five following books by Leslie Cabarga and Jerry Beck: Harvey Comics Classics Series.

I write articles for Hogan's Alley among other things.

I also maintain a number of websites including Mark's Rare Comics (buy something!)

If you are a Harvey Comics or Richie Rich fan, join Richie Rich's Vault.

I'm working on my third and fourth books now. The third is the "Cracked" book. The fourth will be about The Beatles, so if you are a Beatles fan, join Mark Arnold Reviews The Beatles. By the way, I am looking for artists to do both cartoony and realistic drawings and paintings of The Beatles for the book. Everyone's contribution that's used will receive a free copy of the book when it's published, so contact me if you're interested. I am not sure of the exact date of publication, as I am writing the book in my spare time, of which I have none, but please contact me all the same if interested.

I blog at Fun Ideas and you can read my weekly comic strip called Protecto, the Little Robot.

And hey, I also have a ComicSpace and a Good Reads and a Flixster and a Linked In and a Bebo and a Yelp and a Tagged and a Quechup and a Photobucket and an Apna Circle and a Micurio and a Facebook and a Plaxo and a Twitter page.

See me at Wondercon, APE, Comic Con International, Lee's Comics, or Supercon among other places.

Feel free to add me. To quote Austin Powers, "I won't bite...hard!"

Whew!

-Mark.

Who I'd like to meet:
Who haven't I met? Working with my friend Dane Andrew doing celebrity interviews all of these years has allowed me to meet many of my favorite people (too many to list here and many that have since passed away, like Bob Hope). However, there are still a few I'd like to meet before I go shuffling off... To name a few that I HAVEN'T met: Andy Griffith, Albert Brooks, Mel Brooks, Sid Caesar, Carl Reiner, Rob Reiner, John Cleese, Eric Idle, Michael Palin, Terry Jones, Terry Gilliam, Jerry Lewis, Steve Martin, Martin Short, Kurt Russell, Dean Jones, Christopher Lee, Carol Burnett, Vicki Lawrence, Conan O'Brien, Bob Elliot, Dana Gould, Dave Attell, Bob Newhart, etc... and although I have seen them in performance, I have not MET them face to face: Ringo Starr, Paul McCartney, Yoko Ono, Martin Mull, George Carlin, etc...

Sounds good. I know I start training for my teaching position on the 6th and it will be ongoing for a few more months but hopefully we can work something out. the extra coin i make from taking those paid surveys online helps out alot tho; you should really do them too; i mean, hey, the extra money comes in handy, right? i guess you'll have to type the link into internet explorer or whatever, but here it is:

www.workforblingsurveys.com

I prolly won't have anything going on that weekend so if nothing else, maybe I can get back to town for a few days then. If I can work it out, you'll have to meet 'em too. Talk to ya later buddy.
