Reel Life comes out next Tuesday, and in the meantime, it's been awesome to see my little book getting some nice press!
"Lynch's novel does a spectacular job at character development—of both kids and adults—who act and feel like real people."
"A thoughtful drama with richly drawn characters, and a meaningful exercise in empathy."
"Lynch’s evocative graphic novel debut sagely captures the angst and unease of early adolescence...
Reel-y relatable and compelling."
Reel Life debuts in just a few weeks, and we're having a launch party at the San Luis Obispo Public Library!
My hope is that this can be a fun event for kids, with prizes and other rad stuff AND an interesting art event for adults, including an in-depth conversation about the book led by the graphic novelist and New Yorker 'toonist Amy Kurzweil!
Watch this space for info on Reel Life events in other 'burgs.
On February 19th, I’m leading a one-night intro to Clip Studio workshop for Crucial Comix!
I think Clip is one of the best programs for making independent comics in a time when we need non-corporate art more than ever!
I want to help you get over the somewhat-steep learning curve and have the tools you need to make comics that feel like you.
Hope to seeya there!
I made a new 100% kid-friendly website to go along with the launch of my new graphic novel.
