It’s that time of year again- for better or worse. Time to spend quality time with the family, reflect on the past year, and crap like that. For me, this past year had its fair share of highs and lows. Highs- professionally-wise- being the launch of Independent Propaganda, The Independent Propaganda Store, Ambrosia Publishing, and other ventures. And it looks like 2007 will be an even bigger year as I get ready to launch Ambrosia Digicomics, focus more time on The Creative Entrepreneur, and some writing projects- one being a BEFORE DAWN sequel with Jason.
With the closing of 2006, I want to thank EVERYONE who has played a part in making Independent Propaganda what it is today. And a special thanks to both Matt Butcher and Chris Beckett, you guys have been there from the beginning and have stuck with me. I am forever in your debt, guys.
To everyone reading this, I hope you have a great Christmas and I hope this coming year is your best yet. Take care and I’ll see you on January 1st, 2007.

Posted over at The Creative Entrepreneur is my vote for the most useful Web 2.0 app of 2006: NetVibes.
If you do the majority of your work online, then you know how frustrating it is keeping track of “this” RSS feed, or “that” web site you wanted to read, or forgetting to note somewhere an important piece of information you needed for a project or keeping on top of emails or a variety of online tasks which seem to grow with each passing day.
I once had those problems till I discovered NetVibes.
You can learn more about this great little Web 2.0 app and how it should be part of your online tool box by reading the full article.

NBM ComicsLit’s most exciting new launch of this fall mixes Japanese manga with American and European influences for a touching story about two sisters against the world. It is Unholy Kinship, the first graphic novel, in full color, from Naomi Nowak, a Swede of Hungarian/Polish origin who speaks and writes perfect English.
Luca is the younger sister of the two now orphaned teen girls whose parents disappeared under mysterious circumstances. The parents’ work, involving research into primates and speech, upset people. Their sudden absence has sent Luca’s sister into a failing mental state, and Luca bears the full burden of supporting them both. Luca, caught between her sister’s perhaps insane wishes and her doctors’ decrees, drifts into depression and fantasy herself, and is not sure she can separate fantasy from reality.
