I’m a bad interview…

Filed under: Bone, Events, World Tour — Jeff @ 2:44 pm

I just stumbled across this on YouTube last night. It’s an interview I did with  Alyssa Huang last Spring while at the ALA BookExpo. I mentioned it in my blog at the time, but I lost my notes that had the little girl’s name and that she was with Ideas in Writing Kid’s Club. I never saw the finished piece after that. Anyway, here it is, and I am a bad subject. I inadvertently throw my interviewer off just as the showroom starts to shut down. It’s pretty adorable…

Jeff and V sure have been busy. These pics were in my inbox this morning. ENJOY!

Jeff writes:

We arrived in Mumbai the day before yesterday (the giant city that used to be called Bombay, home of Bollywood, the world’s largest film capital), and have been visiting family & friends. Also spent a lot of time in the hotel cafe – - gave a dozen interviews including some of India’s biggest papers like Times of India, The Hindu, Time Out Mumbai, DNA Daily News, and Rolling Stone India. 

Last night I had a book signing downtown @ Crossword Bookstore, at Kemps Corner, Mumbai 7:00pm. Good turn out.

 

Today I am giving a lecture at the Whistling Woods Film Institute.

First I was given a tour of the animation dept. Very nice. State of the art.

Part of my talk covers comics influences like this Krazy Kat Sunday page by Geo. Herriman.

Afterward, the students came up and asked questions and passed around the books.

It was great fun!

iINDIA booktour via iPhone from Jeff and V part 2

Hi everybody, I received some new pics from Jeff and Vijaya. Wish we were there with them, we woke up to our first snow fall this morning. I think they might want to stay longer when they find that out…

On siesta. Getting ready for a booktour full of unknowns. That’s Jeff on the beach of Ihuru, North Male Atoll, on Maldive Island.

Watched a beautiful sunrise here in The Maldive Islands. Vijaya & I spent a  few days rest here to burn off our jet lag before the booktour.

I haven’t completely escaped work though; this is a picture (taken with my iPhone) of my reading material for the trip. A couple hard-boiled noir novels (1 Hammett, 1 Chandler) and a couple x-file type science books. Doing my homework.

And yes! On the right of the table is a copy of the new oversized RASL collection. It’s a sample copy sent straight to our room here (in the middle of The Indian Ocean!) It’s beautifully printed. I will be premiering RASL volume 1: The Drift at Flying Colors Comics in person on Dec. 6.
