DAD’S FALL
Hi all!
It has been a tough weekend! My dad fell on Thursday night, fracturing his skull slightly around his eye, and suffering a major concussion. After two very long nights in hospital, in which those of us who could took shifts, he is now home and recovering. But he gave us all a hell of a shock!
We’re all rooting for you, dad. Loads of love!
LORCAN’S FILM
I also want to share my son’s new move project - part of a sci-fi/comedy/drama trilogy exploring some of the problems of competitive and unethical uses of AI. He's proving to be a very accomplished writer/film-maker, so I'd hugely appreciate your support!: THE CLOSE: Part II of the Artificial Companion Universe
‘A door-to-door salesman comes face-to-face with his morality when he finds himself in possession of a black-market AI companion.’

I’m delighted to share the news that I won my third Inkwell award!
ALL-IN-ONE AWARD (Favorite artist known for inking his/her own pencils): Liam Sharp (313 votes, 31%): Spawn: the Dark Ages [Image Comics]; Savage Sword of Conan [Titan Comics/Heroic Signatures]
Huge thanks to Bob Almond for creating and organizing these awards, and all those who voted for me - I had some incredibly stiff competition from people I truly admire!
Cheers again! 😎❤🍻🍻🍻







No brainer backing Lorcan's project. I hope your dad is on the mend. Thinking of you all.
