As of early 2018, scarygoround.com has stopped updating. I am still alive. I've been working on creator-owned print projects (like GIANT DAYS and BY NIGHT for Boom, and STEEPLE for Dark Horse) and doing webcomics for fun on the bobbins.horse website when I've not been drawing anything else. New comics are running there right now.

City officials called the street closings planned starting Friday are an “initial pilot,” and that more sites may be added to the program in the coming days. De Blasio said on Tuesday he’d like to open “up to two streets per borough.”
