In the summer of 2019, while my wife attended an artist’s residency in Ireland, I wrangled some art college friends to join in on a weekly on-line drink & draw. Then other School of Visual Arts friends dropped by. Soon I invite others in the comic book industry beyond our collegiate circle.
A regular get-together became a proper show and the Big Story Podcast was born. Since then, the look and name changed but the mission remained; Track the guest’s creative journey, inspiration, and process.
About Alex
I am the founder of the Big Story Podcast and co-founder of the Mountain Writers Wrant writing group in Asheville, NC. I spent a decade writing and pencilling for Marvel, DC Comics, then twice as many years as an art director and designer for Fortune 500 brands before authoring speculative fiction, science fiction, fantasy, and mystery novels—and more comic books.
SPECIAL Thanks
Thank you to the hundreds of amazing guests who shared their valuable time with me. And my deepest thanks to Phil, Steve, John, and Gary for their contribution of talent and time over the years—I'll carry on the conversation we started in 2019.
