About me: Hi! My name is Courtney Price and this is my comic strip "MARKSVILLE" that I've been developing since 1998. I also have a flickr account at www.flickr.com/photos/marksville and a twitter at www.twitter.com/courTOONey
PLOT SYNOPSIS:
People often ask me "What is your comic strip about?" Honestly, it's not really "about" anything in particular.
CHARACTER SYNOPSIS: The main character is Mark Seville, age 17, and a junior in highschool. Mark's a little on the nerdy side and has much anxiety over girls, not so much over school or his future. His two best friends are Traven Appleby and Summer Tanager. Traven and Mark have been friends since birth. Traven is not the shiniest penny in the fountain, but he's a good guy. He has a younger brother, Dale, age 10. Summer is Mark and Traven's only real female friend. She met Mark in middle school and is kind of a hippie type. Summer is a very cute girl, but Mark is completely oblivious to this fact since he has been in love with the same girl, Roxanne Fiori, since the third grade. Roxanne has no idea that Mark exists and is pretty much the villian of the strip. Mark's parents are Margo and Steven Seville (Margo is one my favorite characters to write for). I hope to get Marksville syndicated someday, so you better add me before I'm too busy/famous/important to talk to you. (just kidding...or am I??) If you like Marksville, I like you! If you don't...ummmmmm...Enjoy!
Ever wondered what to do in the event of a nuclear threat?
A while ago I found stuff that inspired me to make this film:
Living Under the Shadow of the Nuclear Umbrella
Both artistic (ensure you get the background music!) and educational, it primarily comprises official British government civil defence advice.
Though source materials are quite aged, much remains relevant today.

I'm an indy creator so every bit of support makes a difference. Thanks for
Wow, I have read their works too, though not many. I like Catcher in the Rye, Mezon Ikkoku, Inuyasha. For Haruki Murakami, I have enjoyed his Hard-boiled Wonderland and the End of the World (read in Chinese translation). And I also like Roald Dahl's works. Just bought his BFG as a birthday present to my student who told me he has started reading it and loved it! ^_^
I have not heard about the movie, but surely we can look forward to it...but I am not sure will we get to see it in Singapore! :( We are always so slow in getting movies, and CM Season 5 won't be here on our national tv till next year. Tonight in half an hour's time, we are going to show Amplification, episode 24 of Season 4.
Thanks for adding me, may I know the full names of the writers you like? Some of the last names seem familiar but I am not sure. :) Like what I have seen in a glance here, hope we become better acquainted in future!
You and are becoming quite the creative team. We have to launch some kind of project together. But we are so multi-talented......... Which one would we choose?
Yousah funny girl. You should write da comedy wit me. We can write a storee about two catapillars falling in luv, and becoming humans............ Or we could just hang out at Target. Your call.
