At that point, I think it'll be ~6 months of prep work before the first issue comes out, and then the next five issues will hopefully be released one-per-month. <br /> I'd also like to submit my book about how to write superhero novels & comic books at some point. Maybe in half a year? I suspect I’ll get the comic book published before June.

I’d also like to submit my book about how to write superhero novels & comic books at some point. Maybe in half a year?

So everything I write here is 100% accessible to them. <br /> Also, during my work with the government, I heard about more than a few government employees getting chewed out or (usually) fired because of inappropriate online activities. In the last presidential election, an Obama speechwriter <a href=http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/washington/2008/12/obama-favreau.html rel="nofollow">caused a minor scandal</a> during the election by groping a poster of Hillary Clinton. While wearing a t-shirt labeled OBAMA STAFF. I also try to be especially careful because I put a link to this website on my resume. So everything I write here is 100% accessible to them.

My cousin got fired from a job at a supermarket just recently because he posted a picture of himself on one of those networking websites holding alcoholic beverages and it violated some sort of representational clause he had agreed to, and that was a extraordinarily small company, with not very much reason to care.

I'd prefer not to name it because saying I worked for COMPANYNAME might lead some people to think "oh, this is a COMPANYNAME blog!" That, and companies are very sensitive about any details that might identify them specifically. Have you heard of that <a href=http://news.cnet.com/I-was-fired-for-blogging/2010-1030_3-5490836.html rel="nofollow">Delta flight attendant</a> that got fired?
