Comic News Insider Interview
We hooked up with Jimmy Aquino of the Comic News Insider while we were at the Bristol Comic Expo. You can listen to his interview here
Copies of The Arrival are being delivered around the world, so we decided to map the scale of interest in our story.
If you’ve got a copy, please feel free to contribute and map your location.
Yayy! Another action packed weekend. We finally had our industry launch – at the Bristol Comic Expo. Corey, Jennie and Yomi had a table at the show, as well as a panel discussion. We sat alongside the Barry and David of Geek Syndicate, the Markosia family, and Kill Shakespeare.
The interest in The Arrival and the whole project was very encouraging. We’re fired-up and looking forward to many of the challenges associated with producing a new project such as Clockwork Watch.
We’d like to thank Harry Markos, Matt Gibbs, Doctor Geof, Conor McCreery, Anthony Del Col, Jimmy Aquino, and James Pearson (Bayou Arcana).
Here are some pictures and a short video…
We were interviewed for Jimmy Aquino’s Podcast!

That was the week that was. We had a blast at Tomorrow’s World… Today. We launched Clockwork Watch with an immersive prologue, and participants had a chance to interact with characters from the story. We also made sure that the first batch of “The Arrival” were in the post, and were being delivered prior to the event.
So what happened? Well, you need to read the latest news in the London Gazette…
Here are some snippets of the day’s activities:
