WELCOME!
Like
the sign says, welcome to my personal roadside stop on
the Information Superhighway. For a very long time, I kept promising
fans, friends and family a place where they could stop by and
check out what's new from me in the comic shop or what I've got in the
works. Well, Storrieville was created to do just that.

WHAT'S
NEW!
Currently I'm in one of
those periods
that all writer's dread: I've been working on stuff like crazy and the
stuff I'm working on won't be announced/on shelves for a bit.
Work is continuing on the ROBYN OF
SHERWOOD remastered edition, I wrote
a graphic novel this past Fall that's being illustrated as we speak
(and should be announced in the next few months), I'm finishing off a
mini-series, writing a prose story, and just started working on a
currently-secret project that boggles my mind to be a part of.
Keep your eyes peeled here and on the blog for updates!
However, there are a couple things to pass along...

10th Muse Crossovers
Throughout
the years, the 10th Muse has teamed up with some of the top
comics, such as Shi, Savage Dragon, Tellos, Legend of Isis, and Judo
Girl. All these amazing stories brought to you by top comic talent like
Billy Tucci, Erik Larsen, Marv Wolfman, Roger Cruz, and Mike Wieringo
are are now gathered together in this single graphic novel.
Also
included is a never-before seen crossover with Indie favorite Koni Wave!
This collection includes my own SHI/10th MUSE crossover with art by
Nadir Balan.
From the original solicitation copy:
Two women. Two warriors. One fights for justice. The other, vengeance.
But are the two really that different? Find out when Shi vows to
destroy a man the 10th Muse has sworn to protect. But when two heroes
do battle, can the result be anything but tragic?

Music
by
Superfizzee...Artwork by PDS!
- Do
you
like rockin'
surf punk (or "power noise pop")?
- Do
you
like blonde girls who kick undead butt?
- Do
you
like seeing
whether writer's can draw?
If you answered "Yes!" to any of those questions, you
should should check out "Stuck in a Cellar"
by Superfizzee,
available on iTunes or CDBaby.
Featuring guest drummer DJ Bonebrake (of X) and 'cover' art by
yours truly!
It's been a long, long time since I've flexed my artistic muscles for
public consumption, but I thought this turned out pretty well.

If you're looking for the latest and greatest news from me, or just my
random thoughts about comics, writing and life in general, here's where

WILLIAM
TELL:
ONE AGAINST AN EMPIRE

his great skill with a crossbow. A mild-mannered husband and father, he
just wants a quiet life for his family. Yet his homeland’s
brutal
foreign rulers are making such an existence impossible. Then, one day,
a ruthless official forces Tell into a terrible choice: Shoot an apple
off his son’s head—or be killed along with his son.
Will he
accept this
awful challenge?

PERSEUS:
THE HUNT FOR MEDUSA'S HEAD
 Written by
Paul
D. Storrie, Illustrated by
Thomas
Yeates
Could
a monster whose very look
turns men to stone be a challenge too
perilous even for the son of Zeus? King Polydectes has designs on
Perseus’ mother, Danaë. But first the king must get
rid of young
Perseus once and for all. So Polydectes hatches a plan to trick the
young hero into performing an impossible task—slay the
snake-haired
Gorgon monster Medusa, whose very look turns men to stone. Yet, as the
son of Zeus, king of the gods, Perseus has many powerful allies. Will
Perseus’ strength and courage—and the favor of the
gods—allow him to do
the impossible?
