Graphic Novel Author & Illustrators Interview Q & A schedule

I would be interested. My work is a little outside the box as I write about the history of the graphic novel and often about artists who are creating graphic novels today. I recently contributed bio material for a 3-page comic strip by Shannon Wheeler of the Too Much Coffee Man cartoons that appeared yesterday in a special edition of The New Yorker. It is called The Dirty Little Secret Behind the Origin of Comics about my grandfather Major Malcolm Wheeler-Nicholson who founded DC Comics and was one of the first publishers in 1926 to feature classical literature in comic strip form. Gerard Jones who wrote Men of Tomorrow and I are collaborating on a biography about my grandfather entitled Lost Hero. Thanks so much for doing this.

Hope that helps and thanks again. Obviously I am passionate about this genre! Nicky
