href="http://kck.st/vEccIP">Kickstarter</a> to help fund my exciting new graphic novel “The City Troll”.</p> <p><strong>“The City Troll” </strong>is a 180-page black and white comic about a guy named Paul and his extreme self-hate.  He views himself as a creature he calls the city troll.  This graphic novel floats between a surreal world where Paul wallows in his own self pity and the real world where he tackles a love triangle, jealousy, his distancing relationship with his father and his confrontation with his abusive mother.</p> <p>I have spent almost all my free time creating this book over the last year.  Although it is fiction it has really been an outlet to deal with my own self-image issues and relationships.  There is no way I could afford to print this on my own so I am counting on generous contributions from wonderful people like you.</p> <p><a href="http://kck.st/vEccIP">RESERVE A COPY TODAY AND HELP FUND MY GRAPHIC NOVEL</a></p> <p><strong>If you can’t afford to
