NEW PAGES!?
by Jason Brubaker on February 6, 2012 at 5:00 amYes, you heard me right! Today I put up a NEW page. Well, it’s new on this site. When I printed the book I added 4 pages to Chapter 2 where Sonja and Victuals were working on the suit to get it fitting Victuals’ body. Now that Chapter 4 is about ready to begin, I figured I should update all the pages from Volume 1 to reflect the book. So in addition to updating all the pages in Chapters 1 and 2 I have added the first two missing pages online. Click the image to see in within the story.
So, Next Monday, I’ll post the next spread so make sure to come back. In fact, I’ll be posting new pages each Monday from now on leading up to the start of Chapter 4 on the 27th. Yay, my page posting has officially begun!
Free Advertising this month! Right there ——->
Along with posting new pages each Monday, I am now offering advertising again on this site. To jump start things a little, I want to give you a chance to advertise here for free for the month of February leading up to the start of Chapter 4. To get your banner rotating for free this month, all you gotta do is buy some ad impressions for NEXT month (March). The sooner you lock in your banner ad impressions the sooner your banner will be rotating through the cycle with all the others leading up to the start of Chapter 4. Does that make sense or am I just completely confusing here?
In other words, reserve your ad impressions for NEXT month now and get free impressions for THIS month. Yes, I will cycle your banner with everyone else’s banner (who has reserved impressions) all February until I start posting Chapter 4. If you are interested in reserving impressions for when I start posting new pages then head on over to my advertising page and buy some impressions now. I will start cycling paid banners on a first come first served basis when Chapter 4 begins.

New Shirt designs
I tried to make this shirt over a year ago and failed. Now I am forcing myself to finish it and eventually print it for conventions and stuff. I’m still not sure of the colors yet so let me know what you like. Even if you want to grab this image, change the color to what you think it should be and send it back to me then I’ll consider it. I might have a vote for it at some point later too.
Here’s a version on a black shirt:
Here is a version on a blue shirt:
And here are some other color ideas:
I really have the worst time deciding on something like this. When it comes to simple color design I lock up like a Commodore 64. Speaking of which, I loved that computer!

Good News all Around!
by Jason Brubaker on January 30, 2012 at 4:21 pmSo the biggest news this week is that reMIND got on the Great Graphic Novels for Teens list for 2012! (GGNT) This is a pretty big deal I hear and I am honored to have my first book listed with so many other talented storytellers. Perhaps this is why I had to send out so many copies of reMIND yesterday.
Usually I get orders for about 20 books a week from Libraries, Comic shops and Amazon combined but last week was a record with 36 copies sold! Before I forget, here are a few more comic shops that started carrying reMIND this last week! Once again, Please go bother them for a copy of reMIND so they reorder more :)

Now, onto even crazier things! I have finally decided when I’m going to start posting new pages of reMIND! I still don’t think I’ll be finished with everything I wanted to have complete but I’m going to pull the trigger anyway! The madness will officially begin on…
Monday FEBRUARY 27th 2012!
This probably means that I will be staying up late at night for the entire month of February to get as much finished as I can before this start date arrives. And just like before, there will be spelling problems and typos and little things to fix as I go but I trust that, once again, you will all help me refine Volume 2 as we go to be the best book it can be.
But honestly, I’m pretty nervous about what everyone is expecting with Volume 2 because it seems like I have only had positive feedback from this first Volume. I keep worrying that I can’t live up to the hype but I’m sticking true to the original story however simple or complex it may seem. I can tell you that it will probably go in directions that are unexpected. That’s what I like about it.
But, I’ll just shut my mouth and see how things play out as I post pages. :)
