Welcome to my musings on life, work and the creative life amidst teaching at the Center for Cartoon Studies. Posts are illustrated when I can manage it. Myrant is just that: MYrant! I post daily, for the most part, except when deadlines and workload constrict my time.
I'm a Native Vermonter who drew and wrote from a tender age and loved dinosaurs and monsters, none of which I've ever outgrown. I graduated in 1978 as a member of the first-ever class at the Joe Kubert School of Cartoon & Graphic Art, Inc., entered the comics profession and carved out a career until my retirement from the field in 1999. I made (and left) my mark with SWAMP THING, TABOO, '1963,' and TYRANT, among others. As a writer, I've written for a variety of zines (including VIDEO WATCHDOG, DEEP RED, FANGORIA, etc.) and books (THE MONSTER BOOK: BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER, UNDERGROUND USA, etc.) amid occasional bouts of fiction (the Stoker Award winning novella ALIENS: TRIBES, short stories). My current pet project is GREEN MT CINEMA, dedicated to VT and New England films and filmmakers. I write constantly, draw occasionally, and now teach at the Center for Cartoon Studies in White River Jct., VT. I live with my wife Marjory, whom I love -- and I sure love my son Daniel and my daughter Maia, too.

Awwww, we need some beautiful pictures. Sadly Kathy and I went down to IKEA on Sunday in CT and we saw our share of deer, howerver they were horizontal and laying by the side of the road.
Very sad.

Can't have pix of everything! I've a real aversion to cameras, from either end of the lense. Give me some ink, a pen and a brush, though, and I'm there.
I see a LOT of deer, here in Northeastern Wisconsin. Some milling about brazenly and unafraid, in a country field, watching me pass.
I see many more, unfortunately,
on the side of roads, losers in
a game of chicken with speeding
vehicles.
Bissette's lucky enough to have
nature at large in his back yard!
We're a little more built up around
here, but I feeled blessed to know
that in any direction, 15 or 20
minutes away, I can see wildlife
in all its glory.
