Hey, thanks for becoming part of my "friend" space! I'm looking to get more plugged in with creatives worldwide through this social network.

My Xeric grant winning book "Jazz: Cool Birth" is NOW in September's Previews for preorder at comic shops, a murder mystery in a 1957 jazz bar, with art and type based on '50s album cover design, dig? Bebop for your glims.

Info about comic books as a business and focused ramblings are at ComicArtistsDirect. com. "Adam Among the Gods" and "Seductions" have just been made available to buy online at Aazurn. com. The Aazurn Publishing Saga, a step by step account of creating and selling these comics is there, also. Will work for Michigan wages - have a look at GaryScottBeatty. com.

I'm looking forward to exploring the MySpace pages of all of my new "friends" (Man, does that sound square).

Peace!

Hey Neil Swaab
This could be the beginning of a beautiful friendship. Or not.

Let me challenge you: Download the album 'Walkthrough' - it's on the top of my page - and listen to it exactly 4 times. Read the lyrics. It's mandatory :)

I give you a solemn promise that you will feel, see and hear things that will make you smile deep within for the rest of your life. If it doesn't happen I'll switch to selling ice-cream.

If you need a downloading assistace, send me a message.

Now go and get it. It was made for you.
Erin

Great photographs of Italy, Neil. It's like you're an artist or something.
