This needs to happen!

Thanks to everyone who signal-boosted this. No new work has been forthcoming, unfortunately. Please keep me under consideration for upcoming projects - both C/O and WFH! I feel like I'm doing my career-best work at the moment but nobody will hire me for new projects!

Aw, James... I'm really sorry to hear this. Keep your head up and a smile on your face, and I know you'll find something else before too long. You've always been amazing to work with.

Whooooo?

Friday night. Fulfilling a 20+ year ambition by lettering pages drawn by the amazing @bsienk.bsky.social for issue #2 of THE HAB!

I'm hugely proud of my wife @pippabowland.bsky.social's colour work on ANCESTRAL RECALL, on sale now from @ahoycomicmags.bsky.social. I personally don't think Pip hasn't been given enough credit for the work she's brought to this series so I want to change that 😊

Okay. Electric bill is now paid. But there’s still two weeks until payday, and it means times a going to be a tad rough

If anyone wants to support a gay creator who’s had the roughest time with his career since the pandemic six years ago, I’d really appreciate some book sales

Thanks, Lee! Both of us would jump at the chance to work with you again!

@pippabowland.bsky.social did some of her best work to date on this book. And she’s wonderful to work with.

I’ve worked with Simon many times and he’s always been terrific!

Aww, thank you so much! Hope we’ll get to work together again soon, it’s always a pleasure!

Would never dissuade anyone from following their dreams, but now is not a good time to be breaking in as a letterer 😬

Behold, a rare look at my process for A Quiet Place mini-series. I’m looking for gigs in 2026 so if you need an artist, email me. Let’s make comics.

Simon is a fantastic letterer. If you've enjoyed THE HUNGER AND THE DUSK, you've been treated to some of his wonderful work. It's very scary that somebody who is this good at their job and well-liked in the industry is struggling to find gigs.

Thank you so much!

Simon should be your number one consideration for lettering ⬇️

Thank you so much, Jude! I really appreciate it!

Simon was our letterer for BE NOT AFRAID, and he's a major reason why the project turned out as well as it did -- Mr. Phim's angelic script, over and against the shaky regular script of the mortals, builds the mood beautifully without ever being too heavy of an effect.

Thank you so much, Willow! Very kind and I really appreciate it!

With 23 years of continuous work as a letterer, and over 30 years of print/production experience, I’m now unable to find any new lettering work in comics.
Please keep me in mind when staffing your creator-owned projects and please consider requesting me on your WFH projects 🙏
