[UPDATE: You can follow my goings on at Supernova over on my Twitter page. Also, they have their own Twitter page here.]

Blogging this from a neat cafe here in San Francisco. Heading over to Supernova in a little while, where I'll be speaking on a panel Wednesday morning.

It's great being back in town; it's amazing how many friends I have in San Francisco, even if I've spent less than a total two weeks in my entire life here.

But I feel the same way here as I did in New York last week- the Big City doesn't do much for me any more. It did once, then one day the feeling vanished. I can't wait to get back to Alpine and crank out some more big drawings.

That being said, this regular traveling stuff is important for me. I think I'd go nuts if all I did was hang out in West Texas. Variety is the spice of life etc.

Besides the cartooning, I've got a couple of interesting project stewing in the background. Waiting for a few more planets to line up before going public with them. It's all good. I'll let you know how I get on. Cheers.

Love Brainwash!

Back in the day when I was a guerrilla marketer for my martial art class, I posted fliers on their bulletin boards.

Enjoy my former City Hugh! :)

Hugh -

Do you know the people over at Crushpad?

With their customized wine, your art, even I'd be tempted to scrounge up funds for a barrel...and, well, try to save a bottle for display. :)

I ubnderstand your big city anxiety as it relates to NYC....but SF is like a bunch of neighborhoods patched together with cool cafes...

Cheers!
