Mockingbird nominated for two Eisner Awards

So, this kind of amazing thing happened.  Mockingbird received two Eisner nominations.  One for best new comic book series, and one for best writing.  The Eisners are the most important award in comics, and incredible creators go their whole careers without a nomination.  As a comic book enthusiast, I know that a book recognized by the Eisners is always worth reading.  

Anyway, I know that most of the people here are thinking, YES, BUT WHEN IS THE NEXT THRILLER COMING OUT?  

But I just wanted to share, because it's a big thing to me.

All eight issues of Mockingbird are collected in two volumes now. (Vol 1 - "Mockingbird: I Can Explain," and Vol 2 - "Mockingbird: My Feminist Agenda.") You can find them in comic book shops or in some book stores or on the Internet.  

Thanks for reading.

 

 

 

 

 

Kick Lannigan TV show "looking for men"

More opportunities to be an extra in the Kick Lannigan TV show (AKA: Gone), based on my book, ONE KICK. They are filming 12 episodes in the Pittsburgh area, from now through September.

Side note: I assume the casting agents are looking for "a bunch of men" to play FBI/COPS because they have already cast "a bunch of women" FBI/COPS.  *knocks head against desk*    

 

Anyway, here's this - copying below:

Casting Extras for Kick Lannigan TV show

ONE KICK fans: the TV show (GONE) is in production in the Pittsburgh area.  Lots of opportunities to work as extras. Including this one.  If you've read the book you'll know that this photograph is a really important prop. I love the idea that someone out there gets to be Bishop's mom.  I'm posting this on 5/11.  If you're reading it too many days after that, well... I'll try to remember to post casting opps as I see them.  

FOR THE TV SERIES "GONE"

We are looking to create a Family of 3 for a family still photograph from character "BISHOP"s childhood.

MOTHER- Can be Hispanic/Italian/Greek (roughly ages 30-50's) 

FATHER- Can be Hispanic/Italian/Greek (roughly ages 30-50's)

BOY- Can be Hispanic/Italian/Greek (roughly ages 6-12) 

We will create the family out of the options. If selected you would need to be available next week for the photo shoot. 

Please email [email protected] 
Please include your name, height, weight, age, number and current photo. Please write which you are submitting for in the subject line. 

We will contact you with further details! 

*we did email everyone from the casting call who we felt fit what we were looking for this specifically but if you feel like we missed you go ahead and send us something!* 

MUST BE IN THE PITTSBURGH AREA OR WITHIN COMMUTABLE DISTANCE.
