Anonymous asked you: Can I buy your books online and get a digital version of them? I am getting a bit tired of waiting for the web version to update. I have also found that over the years having books can cause a serious space allocation problem. I like having physical copies but I like having space for other items as well.
I feel a little paranoid about sharing pdf’s of my work to be honest… but if there’s enough demand for this I’ll figure something out. Thanks for bringing it up! That said, I’m interested in e-book distribution and waiting for the tech to become more accessible and comics-friendly. I know what you mean though, owning too many books can be a pain in the ass :/
Anonymous asked you: How did you come up with the character’s names? Do they have any special meanings or did you just pick names that sounded good?
Hahaha oh dear I’m terrible at coming up with names. Many of my OC’s are so old that I hardly remember where the names came from. Nowadays though, when I design new characters for Phantomland, I look for names that originate from specific parts of the world and pick whatever sounds cool. The Capello gangsters from chapters 3-4 all have Italian names for example (obviously!)
