Cosmic Book News
These writing samples are articles for a column I created for CosmicBookNews.com called Alternative Comics Beat. The purpose of the column is to find comic books and graphic novels that people might not usually read and promote them as alternatives to big superhero comics.
These articles are a result of a recent internship, during the summer of 2014, where I worked directly for Matt McGloin, the Publisher and owner of the website.
Alternative Comics Beat - Articles from 2014
Visionary Comics
During my time at Visionary Comics I was the Social Media Director. This job title included running the company’s Twitter account, writing Facebook posts, and promoting Kickstarter campaigns for studio projects. I also wrote copy for new comic book releases, which appeared on digital store pages like Drive-Thru Comics and ComicsPlus.
I also aided in a joint effort to create a release schedule for the batch of titles released in 2012. This schedule determined which titles would be released at which key points during the launch campaign, and were planned in conjunction with the writers.

This is a link to the Kickstarter campaign I was in charge of promoting. Through a strategic social media marketing plan I was able to help push the Kickstarter far past the original goal and produce a higher budget for the project. The original budget was $15,000 for the production of the graphic novel, but we were able to bring in over $20,000 through our social media and press release efforts.I also aided in a joint effort to create a release schedule for the batch of titles released in 2012.
