Bongo asked the all of the creators from this year's book for a few thoughts describing their experience making the stories. Here's a bit of what I had to say.

"My experience on Homer Goes to Hell was awesome. I had two main goals on it (three if you count getting paid.) First, I just wanted to do a Simpsons story that looked different than any I'd ever seen before...."

You can read the rest (and see some more art from the story) right here.

TWITTER/TWITPIC!

That's Right. We're on Twitter. You got a problem with that? You're so cool, right?

Sorry. Anyway, we're on twitter (right here.) The only stuff we put up is pictures-- Work in progress stuff and when we post a new blog update (like this one.) It's like a Garage Art Studios behind the scenes tour whenever we feel like posting stuff up. Mainly we're on it so that we can have easy new content for this very site. All the twitpics show up right here on that little widget (up and to the right). So even if you're too cool for twitter, you can still see the stuff right here.

Finally today, we bought a domain name just in case you're tired of typing in dot blogspot dot com dot org etc, You can now find this very site at simply, garageartstudios.net

Simple, right?
