East vs. West. Is a really pretty map of everyone in the 2010 US Census represented as a dot. I spent a while last year learning to use the horror that is American Fact Finder. But it’s also interesting to me because I often forget how much of the U.S. lives over this side of the country. But this puts it in some perspective:. I guess it’s how people from Perth feel? If this interests you at all, I got started with this tutorial. And, increasingly, TileMill. Fascinating, tell me more!

Where the hell have you been? I know, right? But I’ve been pretty busy. Let me fill you in on what I’ve been up to, list style:. About a year ago I got a new job as the arts and entertainment editor at. I wrote a freaking book. It is called Coffee Nerd and it is kinda like. But 40,000 words long and it will be out January 2015 and you should probably go preorder it now. I’m officially retiring my old blog. Which was basically the highlight of my life, although I didn’t understand a word.

The Return of Trekker. Ndash; a little-known but totally ahead-of-its-time series about a space-age female bounty hunter he made for Dark Horse back in its early days, which he was finally reviving. When I got home, I messaged the arts editor at Willamette Week. And said, “Hey I just met this comic artist from Portland with a great story, and you should write about him.” And he said “No,. Should write about him.” And so I did (eventually), and here it is. Fascinating, tell me more!

http://ruthi.st/post/95464920406/i-wrote-a-comic-yes-wrote-the-world-never-needs

I wrote a comic (yes. The world never needs to see my drawings) for Symbolia. Magazine about the only (I believe) rice paddies in New York City, which are located on Randall’s Island. Between the Bronx and Queens. It was illustrated beautifully by Rebecca Roher. Based entirely off my photos and videos and descriptions. She got the people and the farm so right, it’s crazy. Writing a script for a comic is really effing hard and totally different to writing a regular story. Eleri Harris,. Reblogged this fro...
