It’s been a couple weeks since we’ve opened up the submission guidelines for The Archivist. We’re happy to see submissions of work coming through, and we wanted to say thanks to everyone who has already sent us material to review. Thanks!
If you are new to submitting your creative work for publication, we also want to encourage you to go for it. Though we are more than pleased to receive work from previously published writers and artists, we would love to showcase previously unpublished writers and artists. So, wherever you are in your creative journey, we want to hear from you!
We started a channel for the 1134 Comix side of things. It’s still new, and we’re still figuring it out a bit. But, I thought I would post today’s video for the other channel this time. Never fear, journaling and bookmaking videos are still going up every Wednesday and Sunday at the 1134 Press channel.
About the video:
I’m trying something a little different this week. Rather than a drawing of one of my comic characters, or something else similar to previous videos, I made a drawing in watercolor. For the drawing, I took inspiration from a short story I wrote some years ago now. If you would like to read the story that inspired my drawing, I’ll link to it below. The Story is called The Transcendental Man. I also give some more context to the drawing, and spend some time speaking about creativity, 1134 Comix, and 1134 Press in general. That’s another thing new this week—I actually put my face on camera.

We might be taking a break from publishing videos for a couple weeks, but rest assured that we aren’t just sitting on our hands over here. Bryonna is working on new content for the YouTube channel and videos will return the week after next.
Meanwhile, I’m working on a new book of fiction that will be published later this year through 1134 Press. The hard part (the writing) is complete, the editing is also complete, and the process of laying out the book has begun. Also, new comics are still posting through 1134 Comix. Check out the latest one at the link below.
While we work on some new stuff, check out our growing catalogue of bookmaking videos at our 1134 Press channel. If you’re not already a subscriber, hit that subscribe button—thanks!
