New PIPEHEAD comic and growing pains - By N.L. Belardes
OK, I’m still having technical difficulties as Paperback Writer blog goes through growing pains. As you can see, the blog is now blue but there are formatting issues. It’s the same blue used on the Noveltown site. That’s because Paperback Writer is transforming into the official blog of Noveltown.
Why?
Because I need to talk to you about books and what Noveltown is doing. I want to ask your opinion, and I want to create products that fit your needs. I mean, really, we can't keep publishing "Lords" types of books if we're just catering to Bakersfiend... or can we?
What do you want to read...?
For a while I was reluctant to really talk about Noveltown except behind the scenes. I wanted to see the Indie publishing company grow on its own while I hid behind my blog. But now I want to go public, and detail for you and others out there what it’s like to start an Indie Publishing Company, and who we are. I want to reveal to you more about books, what our vision is…
I’ll write more this weekend.
In the meantime I hope you like the new format and the new comic: PIPEHEAD.
I was inspired by gapingvoid.com. I figured if he could do it, so can I.
So what is PIPEHEAD?
PIPEHEAD is a saga, an ongoing story about life. It’s also a comic about faceless bugs that live in a soup factory. They have no identity other than they know they’re alive. They’re surviving. They care about each other… They sometimes die and get boiled in big vats of soupy goo.
And they’re bottom feeders.
What else do you want to know?

I like the color better than the peasoup. However, the darker blue links don't show too well on the blue background.
The cartoons are pretty good but (no offense) you're not Hugh MacLeod. I'm a long time fan of his.

Why would I want to be Hugh McLeod? I just like that he put a cartoon on his site. Our talents are diverse. Not offended at all. Your comments are appreciated.
I like the blue background... very soothing and the photos look good on the blue too. :)
The cartoons are fun, will be nice to see where they go...
Who knows? They're five minute drawings... I get a thought. I sketch it. Poof! done...
I think there will be a high cockroach body count though.
cool... high cockroach body count! i look foward to it. roaches are a bit fascinating - they're disgusting, yet survivors - they can live anywhere - and when you step on them they'll "squish" or "crunch"... ahhhh... nature's gifts.
crunch... hahahah and ewwww! Especially those big water roaches that fly and you crunch them ten times and they still get up and fly away. Creepy!
If Pipehead is anything like the Duck Invasion stories, I can't wait to see where you take this!
