For editors and producers, here’s how to hire me and/or run my work. Choose the option that best fits your needs:
Cartoons
Low Cost: I draw cartoons (3x/week) for syndication. Prices for syndicated cartoons are very low. You can buy one at a time (“per use”) or get a “subscription” (you receive all 3 every week, run whichever ones you want). Price per cartoon is more per use than with a subscription. Usually about national or international news, trends and culture. You do not get any input regarding subject matter. Contact the Sales Dept. at Universal Press Syndicate or, if you prefer, me directly.
Exclusive: You can hire me to draw cartoons on a freelance basis. This is best for websites and publications who want to offer something unique to their readers and are interested in branding themselves with compelling, tailor-made content. We work together; you have input into the editing process. You can buy one at a time (“per use”) or set up a recurring (regular, for example weekly or monthly) arrangement. As with syndication, price for recurring cartoons is less per cartoon than per use. Start the ball rolling by contacting me directly.
Staff: I would love to work on staff – either in the office or remotely – for a forward-looking media organization that understands the limitless potential of cartoons, comics journalism, animation and other compelling content. As an experienced editor of cartoons as well as prose, I would be a good fit for any media organization looking to take chances and make changes. Contact me here.
Writing
Syndicated Columns: I draw one column each week for syndication. Prices are very reasonable. You can buy one column at a time (“per use”) or get a “subscription” (you receive it every week, run it whenever you want). Price per column is more per use than with a subscription. Usually about national or international news, trends and culture. You do not get any input regarding subject matter. Contact me directly.
Freelance: You can hire me to write on a freelance basis. I can and have done everything from short “front of the book” pieces for magazines to 10,000-word features. My areas of expertise include American and international politics, Afghanistan, the Middle East and Central Asia, popular culture, privacy, and generational politics (Gen X, Gen Y, Millennials, Baby Boomers). This is best for websites and publications who want to offer something unique to their readers and are interested in branding themselves with compelling, tailor-made content. You can buy one at a time (“per use”) or set up a recurring (regular, for example weekly or monthly) arrangement. As with syndication, price for recurring outlets is less than hiring me to write a single piece. Please contact me directly.
Staff: I would love to work on staff – either in the office or remotely – for a forward-looking media organization that wants an old-fashioned, hard-hitting, uncompromising writer to make a splash. Bonus points if I could also contribute cartoons. Contact me here.
Illustrations
Spot Illustrations: Got an article you need illustrated with cool cartoony art? Contact me directly.
Covers: From the covers of alternative weekly newspapers to books, I have experience creating best-selling covers that attract the right kind of attention. Please contact me directly.
Hired Gun: Have a long-form comic written and need an illustrator? Contact me here. Please note: I do not work on “spec” (for free, pending acceptance) and only partner with writers whose work is professional.
Editor
I am an experienced editor whose clients say I help them bring out their own voices while making their work more professional and successful. I edit comic strips and editorial cartoons, curate round-ups of cartoons, even edit book-length manuscripts.
