first entry
Ok, here we go with the first entry of the Team Sputnik blog. My Name is Nick Miller, and I'm a cartoonist. My partner is Antonella Caputo, a writer, and we work together as Team Sputnik, once described by an American comics reviewer as "the Pan-Europeancomics creative partnership", which must refer to the fact that I'm English and Antonella is Italian. Anyway, we loved the description and added it to our website www.teamsputnik.co.uk
Antonella and I also share a home in Lancaster, North-West England, with a bunch of ungrateful cats.
This is my first go at blogging. I have to say, from reading other people's blogs, that it seems to take an unselfconscious nature to make a successful blog, whereas I am by nature shy and retiring, but never mind, I thought I'd give it a try.
In this blog I intend to post cartoons I have drawn, stuff Antonella has written, comments, moans, whinges, the occasional lame joke (if I actually possessed a sense of humour I wouldn't have become a cartoonist) or whatever seems appropriate on the day.
Actually I can see where this could be fun. I've never been any good at keeping a diary - I keep wanting to turn to the back page to see how it all works out. But a diary is private. A blog is out there in the open. People might actually read something I wrote, a daunting prospect for a shy person like me. But perhaps, with a little practice, I can get over my natural bashfulness and make a successful blog!
