Years ago, when Ken first showed me the concept art for SAINTLY, I knew this was a project I had to get behind. Now, I'm so excited it's out in the world! He has worked tirelessly on this comic and you can start reading it here! saintlycomic.com/comic/saintl...

Last month, we refurbished 10 tennis courts in Crotona Park — the only public tennis courts in the Bronx with lights for night play. We stopped by recently to see how things were going. Thank you to NYJTL, USTA and Yonex for helping us deliver high-quality public spaces that New Yorkers deserve.

Now it's time to rec my books to your friends—hello! Do you like gay hockey, or body swapping, or a screwball comedy about art kids, or DC Comic superheroes? www.ngoziu.com/books 📚

Quote-posting twice because it's that important. The three most important resources that I give comics students are linked in this thread. 1. Mad's breakdown of COMIC PANEL VARIATION (@madrupert.bsky.social) 2. How to start stories by Darin Strauss 3. I need you to understand character motivation

Mad Rupert@madrupert.bsky.social

I've been getting back into comics while I wait for more info from my concept job, and I thought I'd make a post about something very important to me, which is COMIC PANEL VARIATION and HOW TO THINK ABOUT IT.

The Fine Art of Where to Start Start your scenes later. Start with conflict. Get to the point. Honestly, start right before things make sense to the reader, and if you're feeling spicy, start after that point. Hurry up. Get to the meat. bsky.app/profile/ngoz...

in college, my screenwriting professor gave us this double-whammy of writing craft articles that changed my writing. quick easy essential reads!

Digging Up the Depths of Desire Make your characters want a little thing a lot. A sip of water. Surviving a bully. Finding out what that sound is. Their cousin's apology. Next make them want another thing—ideally whatever stops them from getting the first thing. bsky.app/profile/ngoz...

ngoziu@ngoziu.com

The second article can be found here! archive.ph/l7c7S Digging up the Depths of Desire by Ellis Avery. Not sure why WSJ stopped publishing their "Word Craft" series, but they should compile all of the articles and print a book!

I was just talking to a friend today about Dolly Parton's Imagination Library - new books every month, totally for free, for kids ages 1-5. My son was part of the program - this is a copy of the letter that came with his last book, right after his 5th birthday.

See Orion! His rage here dulled by a more gripping emotion—shame!! For only he knows the outer reaches of his destruction... ...and what it feels to be of DARKSEID!!! 🔥 #orion #orion2026

you ever just sit down and translate regular english to kirby new gods speak >>> "We can't all write like Kirby—but we can TRY!! Take a SEAT! Pick up the PEN! Turn your 'MODERN THOUGHTS' into the speech of 'ANOTHER WORLD'!" omfg should I start a thread lmao

*standing up on the plane* okay so the first thing you need to consider when interrogating if Frodo and Sam from Lord of the Rings are an example of romantic love is to understand Tolkien's context; what did same sex love mean to an academic and a veteran of world war one in the middle of the 20th c

ORION (2026) fellas is it—

ngoziu@ngoziu.com

I'm back with more ORION tidbits. A little dialogue quirk that's not totally Kirby-esque: Orion's use of epithets! He mostly does this when referring/speaking to Lightray. He calls him "Gentle Lightray" to underscore Lightray's nature. Tender Lightray, sweet Lightray...
