OVS - Merry Christmas Everybody

Merry Christmas from your seasonal Omni-Controller.

What are you doing here on Christmas Day? Ah well... welcome all the same.

While you are enjoying turkey with 'trimmings' on this day of festival, the board of directors of OmniVista Corp shall arrive for their psychic board meeting in an undisclosed predetermined brain.

Here they shall decide what shall come in the following year. A number of game and comic projects are destined to be released in your 2010 time zone.

Among these are expected to be Omnivistascope Model VI, as well as another comic collection.

Game-wise, 54 Jones is going to get a PDF release and hopefully the ancient and venerable Midlam Manor horror game shall finally see the light of day.

So far, they have decided not to take control of this dimension. So, please, proceed with your lives, enjoy them while you can.

OVS - Fanzine of the Month

In the latest edition of SFX (The Atavar cover), Omnivistascope has been kindly given fanzine of the month for issue 5. Nice words were reserved for Keegan Jask, Warlock Holmes (who does seem to have gone down rather well) and they really liked Rathbone: Last of the Organic Wars.

Hurrah!

OVS - Thought Bubble Pops!

Well, I've returned from a slightly strange Leeds Thought Bubble. Despite being very tired, I had a good time in the company of excellent people.

Thanks especially to all the visitors who remembered me from last year and came back for more OVS. Blessed art thou!

I gave away all the copies of my free 52-page OVS sampler, containing stories from issues 1-5. Let's see how that goes :)

Currently working on material for issue no.6... it's all go :)

Next festival appearance should be Hi-Ex in March.

All the best

p.s. I'm not that Omni really...

Art Auction - Art for Heart

The "Art for Hearts" auction has been organised to fund research into organ transplants and has now started on Ebay!

You will need to type in "Art for Heart" into the search section (Ebay seems to have a problem with plurals) and choose either "Book" or "Art".

The pieces on there are by professional children's illustrators and would make a great Christmas present for anybody. Failing that they're a great investment. The starting prices are far lower then these would normally shift for. All the proceeds are going to the transplant team at Great Ormand Street Hospital (GOSH).

OVS - Thought Bubble Baby!

Omnivistascope shall be docking at the Leeds armoury in November to sell copies of the latest issue to unsuspecting members of your dimension on Saturday 21st November.

I am thinking of making up some free A5 booklets of OVS strips. If anyone has any suggestions of which character(s) they'd like to see, for free, please let me know :)

The blog has mutated into a nano-bacterial lifeform...

Since the last blog post, the blog has mutated into a nano-bacterial lifeform. As the last few months pastby, so the lifeform multiplied, until such time as it became sentient. Realising what Paul had been posting in past blogs, it developed a new mutation, and, cleverly, decided that its first course of action would be to change the blog password. Hence why Paul has been unable to blog anything since mid august.

OVS - Long Time no Blog!

Hello, all! It's been a long time since I've blogged, so apologies for that. I've been holidaying, being ill and other groovy stuff :)

Currently working on:

Two collections of my comics for release 2001/11...
(one of them involves a sci-fi storyteller and another involves magic...)

Omnivistascope VI - for 2010...
(Artists heed the horn of summoning, awoooo...)

A book and CD release of my horror game Midlam Manor for 2010...
(Want to get this huge game out of the way so I can move onto others)

So, I am doing stuff, but it's largely invisible, intangible ethereal stuff.

All the best :)
