Come watch Brad and I talk comics!

I just tried Rock Paper Pencil by Astropad, and I really like it. www.instagram.com/reel/DKh0hck...

I want to play @deadasdisco.com so bad.

Table Titans Club: Sneak Attack (book 2) is on sale for pre-order! The book hits shelves in March 2026, but pre-orders make a huge difference. So please reserve your copy. amzn.to/3SkNETR

My buddy @jpcoovert.bsky.social has just posted a really important video about being an indie creator and dealing with Trump's ridiculous tariffs. Check it out and support JP's work. It's amazing. www.youtube.com/watch?v=XYXw...

Wow! I started a new Instagram account last week for my work as a kidlit author, and I'm about to hit 250 followers. Not bad for an old fart who's still learning how social media works! www.instagram.com/scottkurtzbo...

I’ve launched a new Instagram account dedicated to my work as a kidlit author. It would mean a lot if you followed the new account, helped spread the word, and gave it a boost to get things rolling. www.instagram.com/scottkurtzbo...

I’m between books so I’ve created a bunch of work for myself to keep busy this summer so I don’t feel like I’m a big-dumb-failure. substack.com/home/post/p-...

Why is Superman so important to me? Like fundamentally and deep in my core important.

Dad loves when I visit, and enjoys spending time with me, but I mean…there’s a show about polar bears on the big TV. Polar bears.

I'm offering coaching and consultations for aspiring cartoonists seeking guidance on their cartooning journey. If you need help with a specific problem, advice on putting together a book pitch or working on a webcomic, I'm available. open.substack.com/pub/scottkur...

After a lot of encouragement from @bradguigar.com, I'm finally offering Comics Consulting. Check out the details at the link below. open.substack.com/pub/scottkur...

You know what I hate drawing? DM screens. It's really hard to make them look right and then you gotta figure out what's ON the screen because nobody has a blank DM screen. But adding a design to the screen can distract from the image in general.

A reader sent a pic from Indigo book store in Toronto. Great to see Table Titans Club get some display table love. And right next to me is @shanatargosz.bsky.social new book, The Underwild We're doing it! It's all happening for us!!! PLEASE BUY OUR BOOKS!

Hey. Just make the thing. Start today. With whatever you have now. Just start making it now. And then maintain momentum. Don’t stop or restart. Just go and keep going until you finish. Trust me.

Really excited to announce I'll be attending and exhibiting at CXC Columbus this September next to my buddies @stevehamaker.bsky.social and @wesmolebash.com. More details to come in the following months.

Cartoonists: I'm going to be attending a convention later this year. What do we currently like regarding signage for AA tables? Are we draping stuff over the table? Retractable banners? What are people finding works well? The less I have to ship or carry the better, but I want to be seen at the show

Brad has been encouraging me to offer similar consultations and I've been terrified to pull the trigger on it. I know I have a lot of knowledge to offer, and I love helping people with their work, but I guess my imposter syndrome kicks in and stops me.

This PvP from 2013 seems relevant.

The Flying Tomato pizza, in Denton, TX, circa 1989-1991

Do we know if books are exempt from Trump’s dumb tariffs? I’ve heard picture books are, but what about novels and graphic novels? #kidlit #authors #publishing

How is it, that in spite of EVERYRHING, I’m super excited about the future?

Okay, friends in the comic book world. I really, REALLY, would love for Table Titans Club to be nominated for a Ringo Award. It would be such an honor if you could consider the book for a nom. ringoawards.com

Somebody in the kitchen staff has got to take one for the team

I need to get out of the house more. Tempted to start drawing at like, Mox boarding house in Bellevue once a week and inviting anyone to join me. I never. Leave. The. House.

Tomorrow in Portland. Come see us. Shana’s new book is not one to be missed.

If you live in the Portland area, I'm going to be hanging out with @shanatargosz.bsky.social at Barnes & Noble in Clackamas talking about our books and stuff. stores.barnesandnoble.com/event/978006...

The full version of Clip Studio Paint (v 4.0) is currently on sale for $24. That's an insane deal. This is not an ad; I'm just a huge fan of the program. Also, I've not been thrilled with Adobe lately. www.clipstudio.net/en/purchase/

A wild @schweizercomics.bsky.social appears!!!

The bitch signed it. This is how it starts, people. It's time to get angry.

Iowa has always been home in my heart. It’s where my best childhood memories were made, where I formed friendships that have lasted a lifetime, and where my nostalgia always leads me when I think of simpler, happier times.

I just made the most arrogant blowhard on TikTok ragequit by asking him why he needed faith if he had proof god existed. So I've done my good deed for the day. #darthdawkins #arrogantprick #defeatedbylogic #sciencewinsagain

Been married to Angela for 29 years today. Killing it.

I did not have ChatGPT talking me down on my 2025 bingo card.

I am doing an AMA on the Politics discord server at 5pm PST. Here's a link to the server: discord.gg/politics

Minus some post-production stuff I have completed work on Table Titans Club Book 2. (whew)

Did you know that in @ja.clipstudio.net you can make custom color swatches, label them, and even view them in list mode? It helps when coloring 10 characters in a book where you wrote too many characters.

I'm coloring comics live on Youtube. Join me. www.youtube.com/watch?v=ylJR...

A converation with my buddy @wesmolebash.com is up on his Substack. Wes is someone that I greatly admire. I tried to answer his five questions as honestly as possible. Check it out.

In case there's any question about how cool my dad was, here's his D&D character from the 80's. The Wizard DRAZIW. A cherished artifact from my past.

The Toonhound Virtual Studio is open. Work with me. Let's make stuff today. www.youtube.com/watch?v=-jTb...

It's a new day. Let's make comics. t.co/GEbiulQJDv

How about we just focus on art today, yeah? I'm working if you want to just hide and hang out with me. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pw-7...

I don't have words to express how happy stuff like this makes me. I've been making comics professionally for 25 years and nothing matches the response I'm getting from this little book. I just love seeing people enjoy it. Thanks for sharing this with me, Mason!!

Nine out of ten cartoonists agree that streaming your work live makes you more productive. It's called accountability and it's the X factor. t.co/3dJBtqGKZp

It's Monday morning: you're wondering...what are cartoonists doing right now? Well, come find out. www.youtube.com/watch?v=f7md...
