Heads up everybody! After wrestling with Skype (actually not that hard once I realised my headphones had a volume control) I can confirm that I will be being interviewed for the comics podcast site Nightgig.
I don’t think the interview will be broadcast live but check out www.nightgig.com/gigcast for the final interview over the next few days, which will centre on my work for ROK Comics.
The interview is to be conducted by hosts Tim Shea and Scott Gallatin.
