It was my sincere honor to be a judge for the very first Sophie Castille Award in the USA. My fellow judges were awesome, the books were fantastic. Congrats to Elise Gravel!

🧵 Attention, Fellow SFF Artists and Authors -- here is my response to Must Read Magazines, after they presented an Asimov's art contract expecting me to waive all Moral Rights and Copyright to my art. And, I would strongly advise the following to my fellow pros…. 1/

John Picacio’s response to Must Read Magazine’s request for his waiver of all Moral Rights and Copyright of his commissioned art for an ASIMOV’S assignment. Short version — Picacio says a resounding NOPE.

Hey pals, it's after 2:15 p.m. already somehow here in Minnesota and plenty of other places. Have you had lunch yet? Have you taken any meds you might need? Are you drinking enough water? Take care of yourselves. (I need to figure out lunch. Ope.)

It is after 2p .m. in Minnesota (in white on orange on a background that's orange to gold with an icon of a leaf)

Today's email: "you discuss Jane Austen’s Emma and Netflix's The Half of It, along with tons of other resources like By Your Side, of course. This collab's basically the same idea except it could be any item or brand of your choice from the client list (so probably takes less than five minutes)."

Only one lifetime ago, child mortality IN EUROPE was ten percent. Everything you understand about the normal conditions of everyday life is a fragile, precious achievement won at great cost. Shun and denounce anyone who talks as if it isn't.

Yes every woman has been harassed, many assaulted. But every woman has also experienced invisible loss from moments she avoided harassment. She felt a space becoming unsafe, so she left, while men stayed on. And in leaving, she lost: opportunities, experiences, learning, promotions, even simply fun.

Okay. So here's what I know - I lost my day job. - I hated my day job. - I liked having a lot of money and health insurance. - But a lot of money never made me happier, I just owned more stuff. - I do still need health insurance. - I'm really fucking good at lettering comic books.

Not gonna lie, I pretty badly need more work to get me through the rest of October. I'm down to only one show I'm captioning this season, which is not enough to pay the bills and rent. Once we hit November I will more than be in the clear, but I have to make it that far first. Let's work together!

I'm thrilled to have a fantastic work opportunity coming up, but it doesn't start until a little over a month from now. Until then, if you need some caption editing work done, I could use the extra work for the next month! Please reach out if you make videos and I can help with your captions!
