Machine of DEEEEAAAAATH
Posted October 25, 2010 at 02:01 am
Did you know that I have a drawing in a book called Machine of Death? I do! And the book just came out! And a buttload of other talented webcomics artists (and otherwise) are in there as well!

The book is a collection of short stories (and accompanying artwork) revolving around the concept of a machine that predicts your fate on a tiny piece of paper, fortune-cookie style.

Sometime, the story of your fate is a word like "cancer." Sometimes, it is a phrase like "chocolate fudge icing." And sometimes, when the pieces are put together, it all makes perfect sense.

I had the honor of illustrating David Malki's story. There's a bunch of other amazing creators involved in this book, including Randall Munroe, Kate Beaton, Kazu Kibuishi, Aaron Diaz, Jeffrey Brown, Karl Kerschl, Cameron Stewart, and Jess Fink.

Anyway, the actual point of this post is to ask that, if you plan on purchasing this book, you step right up and buy that mofo today. Apparently if a book on Amazon sells a shit-ton in one day, it has a pretty good chance of becoming an Amazon Bestseller.

So, if you like the idea and you want the book, pick it up on Tuesday, October 26th if you'd like to help!

Either way, thanks for reading this total sell-out blog post. :)

My old pal R. Stevens and I used to do a podcast called Coffee and Cider! It was mostly about being work-obsessed idiots and human beings who like beverages and have cats.
