[...] On his blog he said, “Taking Neil’s lovely poetic meditation on the inherent joys of a mother-daughter relationship and developing a compelling narrative impulse without robbing the poem of its highly symbolic nature was an interesting conceptual journey.” Which I think is Charles for “It wasn’t easy to make that poem into a picture book.” He did an astonishing job, but I still worried.

Those paintings look amazing! I will defiently pick up one these books as soon as it’s released.

I have followed and loved your work for many years which made last night extra special for me. I discovered and purchased a three issue mini-series called The Book of Night. I hadn’t heard of it before. After flipping through it I felt so lucky to get all 3 issues for $ 4.00. It reminded me visually a lot of Ballads and Sagas which I loved.

I wish you the most success with Blueberry Girl and the upoming Stardust film.

Wow! That made my night. Now I wish I was going to San Diego. Alas the daily strip and the books have forced me to skip. Maybe next year.

Posted a link back on tomorrow’s strip. Hope you get some traffic. And is this book slated for Fall of ‘08?
