This week Grimm Fairy Tales #34 hit the stands and if you pick it up, I think you will be entertained for your money. But this particular book means a little more to me. I recently had my website, danwickline.com, re-designed by Victor Moreno and we included a “published works” section. This meant I had to go through and put up an image and description of each book I’ve had published. And by comparison to other people in the industry, I knew it wouldn’t take me long to do this. When I finished, I was curious and did something I hadn’t done before… I counted the books. Not variant covers or anything like that, just the actual stories that have seen print counting both comics and prose. I was surprised to find I was at 47. Then Dark Delicacies #1 came out followed by Savage #4… then this Wednesday, Grimm #34 made it an even 50.
Now I’m someone who always thinks I have done absolutely nothing in this industry and what little I have accomplished is like to disappear tomorrow. So to see a number like 50 really meant a lot to me.
Now here's hoping I can get to 100 a lot faster than I got to 50.
