Default Oops

Just realised I didn't get around to doing this bit. How rude...

Ummm, I'm a british guy living in Norway working fastlance (as they call it, basically an in house freelance position) at a publishing house based in Oslo. Company Site These days all my work is for these guys, working for their comics division, duties ranging from lethally dull layout work, to the odd splash of creative room. They deal with all the disney brands here in scandinavia, as well as other local productions. (those of you in london will know Nemi from the metro, which is one of the titles I'm working with). Been freelancing since I left college 5 years ago, but hoping to get a position in this place in 2007 as I'm fed up with late invoices and not enough cash.

Other projects involve a tiny tiny arts mag by the name of error and a surrealist newspaper called the twerp. I design, feature in and edit both of them. I'm not a web chap mind, so you'll have to excuse the diy table-based carnage that they are.

James

I thank you. :-)

Yeah, she's got a good agent, that's for sure. :-) It's destined to get bigger and bigger in the coming year, it looks like.

I almost asked why you work under the scandinavian name, so i guess that explains it! :-) Yup, been here 3 and half years now. (Mostly) I love it, and have absolutely no desire to move back home. Something that strengthens every time I visit, in fact...

But yeah, chatment would be cool. If you use any of the messengers, pm your addy and we can talk.

Ta det pent, mann!
