I did a brief search on "Bone" to purchase the remaining graphic novels that I do not currently own. You see, I sat down one evening with my daughter during our bedtime book reading and neither of us were terribly thrilled with her expansive card catalog of picture books. On a whim I grabbed a box of comic books and right there at the forefront was the #1 edition that I had been keeping all these years. You have a new fan, Mr. Smith. I managed to find the first and second graphic novels that I own (signed by you at ComicCon, San Diego in 2006) and breezed through them toth in two days. So...here I am. What a treat to read an entry by my second-favorite writer, Terry Moore! Although I don't think I'll be reading Stranger in Paradise to my girl for a decade (or two). But still, I'm glad that I found this site... Regards, Lisa Well I’ll be darned. I did a brief search on “Bone” to purchase the remaining graphic novels that I do not currently own.

I have also been wondering about that the last couple of days since I read about it on aintitcool.com And what will it be like, traditional 2D animation? Who will direct, who will produce, will it be one movie or more than one, and, most of all, WHEN? :) Anyway - I second the congratulations above! Great news, isn't it? Indeed!

Heidi got me very intrigued, and word is circulating. I'd like to hear it straight from the horse's mouth, so to speak. No matter what, congratulations on finally finding the right place for the movie rights! When are you gonna talk about the movie?? Heidi got me very intrigued, and word is circulating.

It's a different market now. Terry being a well-known quantity can launch a new self-published series now and have a reasonable prospect for success, but what of the _next_ Terry Moore? Will today's market be as receptive? I’m wondering whether, given a cartoonist with Terry’s talent, his feat could be replicated in 2008. It’s a different market now.

And yet kind of sad for me. Living in Brazil, it's impossible to even feed and clothe myself with comic books.. i tried for years, never had the money to pay the printing, and it's better not to talk about distribution...(i still have a big pack of a comic i helped a friend print, couple of years ago) anyways, that never stoped me, and I believe i just didn't do anything good enough yet... so, this time i'm going multilanguage, portuguese, english, french and spanish... to try a deal with ANY publisher in the world (we don't have national comic publishers here)... and spent all I can afford it with the post office... i still believe in self-publishing, and i hope, someday to leave this country and go someplace where i don't feel guilty for keeping trying to live by making comics, animated shorts or writing. Before that, i'll try from here for some more time... sorry for that, i didn't meant to complaint about my life in your blog. it's just that you've gone worldwide! really, Jeff's, Terry's and a bunch of other succesfull self-publisher are admired everywhere. And altough i'm in a reallity absolutely different from your's, I have similar ambitions, and i believed for quite some time that quality work would do it... this dream died long ago. Just quality is not enough, i've seen trough the years people here with oustanding talent, that had to give up from comics, so they could feed themselves... some of them even gave up drawing at all... I'm sure that a lousy country is not something to blame for anyone's failure. A person's potential counts a lot more. That's a good thing to have in mind...even tough sometimes reality tries to knock us down... Thanks to Terry for sharing this and Jeff for the initiative, allowing us to get to know better what this great authors gone trough to get there. ps: sorry for the bad english...I hope it's at least understandable...
