Being several months since the Tacoma Arts Commission formally announced their funding of my first TACOMIC BOOK, a collection of 100 of my editorial cartoon greatest hits, I thought I would check with this progress report:
Any serious fantasy book needs a Tolkien-style map lurking somewhere round the table of contents. Click to enlarge the rough draft sketch of my Tacoma map (above).
Other items my book will include:
- Table of Contents – COMPLETE
- FOREWORD by John Hathaway, aka THE NEW TAKHOMAN – COMPLETE
- Map – IN PROGRESS
- Intentionally left blank pages – COMPLETE
- “Fun Facts” – NOT STARTED
- 100 of the best TACOMICS from 2007 – 2009 – NOT STARTED
- 1 page dedicated to the WORST TACOMICS – NOT STARTED
- Sampling of the best TACOMIC COMMENTS – NOT STARTED
- A behind the scene cartoonist statements – IN PROGRESS
- SPELLING + GRAMMAR corrections by Todd Mathews – IN PROGRESS
- Tide Tables + Venn Diagrams
- A complete set of Tacoma Action Figures – COMPLETE
- TBA, etc.
