I am part of a small collective called Improper Books.
We're a comic and graphic novel imprint focusing on creator owned stories that have a touch of the fairy tale, the Gothic or the macabre.
The Improper posse:
Benjamin Read - Our puppeteer. A wizard of writing and unbelievably awesome ideas. Creator of all things which need to be drawn by an art minion. (Hairy, although less hairy than before).
Christian Wildgoose - Art minion. Give him a pencil and a few bullying remarks about his general appearance and he's off! With some great comics under his belt already he's putting his awesome talent to great use when teamed up with Ben. Also, my partner in crime. (Rather hairy).
Matt Gibbs - Editor, with a brain that holds one million possible suggestions for every panel. Our fresh pair of eyes. Bread muncher. (Hairiest!)
Here's the bearded bunch now:
Where do I fit in?
Art minion. Mainly covering the all ages side of things. Currently working on a silent comic called Night Post.

Ok, you may also spot illustrative work on here of a rather different nature. I draw our beloved Miss Flexy McStretch for my pal Dr Mark Warren over at Active Chiropractic. They look like this:

I also like to play about with photographs and stop frame animation which pops up now and again. I tend babble about books and I like to highlight my favourite artists on the Friday Favourites page. That's about it really. Perhaps I have succeeded in making the fiasco of my blog into something understandable? No? ... Didn't think so.
