<p>I know I said I was going to start at the very beginning, but I realize I've already told this story in <a href="http://kidlitartists.blogspot.com/2010/09/how-rejection-got-me-book-deal-my.html">this KidLitArtists.com blog post</a>. So I'm going to focus on the publication process instead: working with Justin Chanda and Laurent Linn at Simon &amp; Schuster Books For Children, working on my first picture book etc.</p>
<p>Please note that this is my SEMI-autobiographical comic, so I will be exerting some creative license (BWAhahaha...). For those interested in actual facts, photos, and sample spreads, I'll be posting those on the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.facebook.com/boredbook">I'm Bored Facebook Page</a>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<a href="https://plus.google.com/b/103102544720106816763/103102544720106816763/posts">I'm Bored Google+ Page</a>.</p>
<p>Info about the book, for those of you who hadn't heard:</p>
<p><a href="http://books.simonandschuster.com/I'm-Bored/Michael-Ian-Black/9781442414037"><strong><em>I'M BORED</em></strong></a> is a new picture book written by <a href="http://authors.simonandschuster.com/Michael-Ian-Black/44260805">Michael Ian Black</a> and illustrated by yours truly, coming out from Simon &amp; Schuster Books For Children in 2012.</p>
