so good. It also really resonated with me having just finished readingHouse of Leaves, and filmmaker Natalie Erika James mentions that book in some of the inspirations for the movie. It’s LOVELY in that deeply eerie, creepy way, with a *tiny* touch of body horror at the end. But delig...
So it came as a bit of a surprise to be asked to be a part of a book club discussion on “Lean In” with a group of Christian men. Deep respect for Fred Mok, English pastor atChinese Church in Christ – South Valley in San Jose, CA, who cold-contact emailed me. “I found your...

“Sin City” comic book series titledVigilante. It was slick and competent, it featured probably the first photo-real computer-generated images of any Ryerson student film, and was loaded chock-a-block with as much swearing and guys-sticking-guns-in-each-other’s-faces as one would expect ...
Matsumoto for Futabasha’s Manga Action, in which they asked me if I would be interested in doing a whole book of my original stories, freely adapted by different artists. I asked Mr. Matsumoto, Ms. Miyako Maki, and Mr. Kazuo Uemura to work on it. But I couldn’t ask Go Nagai (*...
