Yesterday, I was incredibly excited to discover that the awesome Ms. Blake Woodruff of imoutoart.wordpress.com (I’ll call her Ms. Woodruff as to not get confused with Mr. Blake!) posted a fan art of my graphic novel The Poet and the Flea. As far as I know, this is the first ever fan art of The Flea and feels like a huge milestone in The Flea‘s progress!!
I asked Ms. Woodruff for permission to repost her illustration here on my blog (see below) and hope that all my readers/followers will take a look at the impressive work on her blog and website!
I especially admire the deep colors/tones she used for this piece and get a total kick out of The Flea lurking in the background!
Next, I plan on creating a fan art page on thepoetandtheflea.wordpress.com and will post Ms. Woodruff’s piece there as well.
I wholeheartedly welcome all The Poet and the Flea fan art and would be more than delighted to showcase your work on my blog!

Congratulations! Now that you have a fan art, are you thinking of publishing it on sites like Amazon, etc? Forgive me if you are generous person who is not interested in profits.

Thank you so much!! I’m hoping to submit “The Flea” to a number of graphic novel publishers and see what happens.

I have just found out that you have ‘liked’ 4 of my posts. You couldn’t have read all that so you might have felt obliged because i had liked yours? while it is nice of you, I hope you don’t feel pressured into buying my graphic novel. You have already given me ‘Beautiful Blog Award’ and that is enough.
By the way if you are thinking of getting published, then you might want to do so before you disclose more free pages. People might not buy a book which they have seen most of the content.

No, I read the comics first, liked them, then went back to read the rest.
Actually, many graphic novel publishers only want to publish works that have a big online following (just look at “Hark! A Vagrant”). When completed, “The Flea” will be at least 200 if not 300 pages plus some content I won’t put online, so I’m not worried about my current online publishing regimen.
