June 18 -  I've begun this WOMP-Blog entry many times over the last couple of days.  Each time, the furthest I've gotten was this...

"Hey there, everyone.  Thank you all for your support over the past two weeks since my Dad, Kelly Mundt, died.  It's been like a long, terrible dream, but your kind words of concern have made everything just barely ( Read more... )

May 29 -  Hola!  It's been a busy, busy few days here at WOMP Central.  For some mysterious reason, my caricature "business" has really picked up this year.  Since the second week of April, I haven't gone a single week without at least one gig.  During the week that culminated in my attending SpringCon, I had three caricature events.  For ( Read more... )

May 27 -  Hey there!  Back to more convention report with...

Hope SpringCon's Eternal

Part Two; "Both Ends of The Spectrum"

So, what all happened at SpringCon?  Well, I have only a slight idea of what everyone else at the convention may have been doing (probably staring at comics legend Jim Shooter....that dude is as legendarily gigantic as he is ( Read more... )

May 26 -  Heh.  Running late again already.  Oh, well...at least I'm "back" in some form.  So, let's get to it.  Here is...

Hope SpringCon's Eternal

Part One; "At The SpringCon, a Young Man's Fancy

Lightly Turns to Thoughts of 'Quarter Box' Comics"

The WOMP Staff and I had actually made excellent time driving to St. Paul, arriving at our assigned ( Read more... )

May 25, 2010 -  Um...hi.  Remember me?  Yeah, so...it, uh...it has been a while.  Like almost half a year.  And this isn't even the first time that I have slunk back to the ol' WOMP-Blog, apologizing for a lengthy absence.  In the past, I have tried to explain myself, reveal my circumstances, make light of the situation, ignore it in hopes that no- ( Read more... )

Straight from someone else's mind comes this meme about 2009.  Just for the heck of it, I actually completed this one.  If you do the same "questionaire," let me know so we can compare notes.  OK, OK...here are my answers to...

The Great 2009 Forty Questions Meme Thingee
1. What did you do in 2009 that you'd never done before?  Live past the year ( Read more... )

December 31, 2009 -  Finally, 2009 is done.  At last!  I don't know about you, but - with the noted exceptions of some of the positive events and trends in the larger world - 2009 was a sucky year for me.  And it wasn't so great for most of my friends and family (like you), for that matter.  I guess that's how it goes sometimes.  In past years, I' ( Read more... )

November 24, 2009 - Here's the thing; I may have moved on. Maybe. I don't really know, but it seems like I no longer have that internal need to post entries in the ol' WOMP-Blog. I still have the desire to do so, but the need seems to have ebbed. Why? Heck, I don't even know why I began a blog in the first place. I have always purported that ( Read more... )

September 12 -  I'm certainly not the first to say this, but Autumn is clearly, and I would say prematurely, creeping up on us, isn't it?  That means fallfire6 is almost upon us!  I haven't done a lot of preparation work yet, but I do have some of the basics of funding and locales determined.  Soon I'll have to update the fallfire site with this ( Read more... )

August 28 -  Let's talk a little bit about jealousy, shall we?  The topic has been on my mind for a few days as my own sense of jealousy - which I'd long assumed to be dead (or at least dormant) - has once again reared its ugly head.  When I was a much younger man, I was often overcome with envy, usually after viewing an amazing piece of artwork.  ( Read more... )
