I bring you some good and some bad news. The bad news is that both Shaun and Brian have had to step aside from their Thought Balloons tenured writer positions. Shaun has been with us for a while, having joined under the reign of Ryan Lindsay. His contributions to the site have been both numerous and well written. Brian was with us only a short time, but wrote some tight scripts. We would like to wish both well in their future comic writing endeavours.
And now for the good news - we have a NEW TENURED WRITER (obviously. It's the title of this post).
Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome former play at home writer ARBY MOAY to the team. Arby has posted scripts in the WHY section for a while now, so when a position came up he was a natural to join. But that's enough from me, I'll let Arby introduce himself:
"Arby Moay is an aspiring comic book
writer and novelist from the Philippines
who dreams of one day going into
outerspace because it seems like it could
be fun. Having recently graduated from
university, he is still currently looking
for a good computer job, and is being very
picky about it.
He's been a lifelong fan of Batman and
Robin, growing up in the 90's along with
the animated series, watching it when
nobody's around because the 'rents and
nanny banned him of doing so (they think
the show's too dark and violent). However,
his relationship with actual comic books
has only been for a little over a year,
taking interest when he found out that his
favorite novelist at the time, Neil
Gaiman, wrote a Batman comic. About
Bruce's funeral. Arby's been broke ever
since.
You can find him on https://twitter.com/aeglyss15,
and on http://aeglyss.tumblr.com.
He also has a webcomic called Sims
University (currently in limbo) which uses
the PC game Sims 3 as art, because he
doesn't know anyone who isn't too busy to
draw for him."
Don't forget that you too can play along at home (and maybe step up and become a tenured writer as well). Simply post your one page script in the current week's Why? post comment section. Feedback guaranteed.
Congrats Arby. Looking forward to reading more of your scripts!
