@GailSimone Awesome thread! Strong verbs and body language are the writer's best friend, and that's true of scripts too. They make everything more dynamic. There's a big difference between "He trudges, shoulders hunched, hands in his pockets" vs "He walks anxiously."

It was a Herculean effort, but I redesigned my website! https://t.co/Dq4etFHsnY

Watching this right now and really enjoying it!

A few years ago I came up with NAUTILUS, an idea for a TV show about a young Captain Nemo. I put together a pitch deck, series outline and treatment and sold it in my first meeting >>

[Julian Barr @jbarrauthor]

We did it!! Thanks to the generous support of a host of people, SLAYHEMN is fully funded! The comic will be ready to print and shift next month.

[Julian Barr @jbarrauthor]

94% funded, with one day to go! We are so thrilled at the support people have shown for our fantasy comic book. Thank you to all who have pledged! Join the Slayhemn mayhem here: https://t.co/4xmoH04BrV

[Julian Barr @jbarrauthor]

By the moons! After an amazing weekend meeting folks at @OzComicCon and telling them about the project, our fantasy comic book SLAYHEMN is 87% funded with 58 hours to go. It's going to be tight, but we just might make it.

[Julian Barr @jbarrauthor]

We are into the last days of our campaign! Up to 72% with six days left. Things are good.

Where did SLAYHEMN start? What's it all about? I dusted off my blog to talk about the new epic fantasy comic book Andrew Law and I created!

Things are going well for SLAYHEMN! Up to 54% funded on our epic comic of dragons, sorcerers and thieves! A richly imagined universe. Perfect for fans of LOTR, Elfquest, and D&D. Join the adventure at:

SLAYHEMN is a high fantasy in the tradition of Tolkien! It's a family-friendly story of good vs evil, of dragons, epic battles and high sorcery.

Gosh... SLAYHEMN is halfway there! 50 percent funded! Thank you to all who have pledged.

@gbralph Thank you so much, Gavin!!

[Julian Barr @jbarrauthor]

Yowser! The comic book I co-wrote with Andrew Law is 45% funded and going strong. With three weeks to go in the campaign, I think we've got a good shot. Classic fantasy in the tradition of LOTR, Dragonlance and Forgotten Realms.

Thanks so much for reposting, @DevinMadson!

[Julian Barr @jbarrauthor]

Guess what? I joined forces with artist Andrew Law to create a comic book! SLAYHEMN Issue 1 is live! A family-friendly epic with fire-breathing dragons, barbarians and high sorcery. Inspired by Elfquest, LOTR, D&D, Dragonheart and many more.

[Julian Barr @jbarrauthor]

This has been in the works for a little while now, but I'm so excited to work with @SapereBooks on my Arthurian series!! Across five books, we'll follow Arthur as he rises from beer-swilling mercenary to true nobility.
