Last week, Raina and I were interviewed for a profile piece in the New York Times! The article takes a look at the married life of two cartoonists, and talks about what we were up to at the New York Comic Con. Head over to the link to read the article!

Raina and Dave in the New York Times!

While in Texas, earlier this summer, I recorded a video interview with Vicky Smith of Kirkus Reviews. It was especially fun, because Vicky was genuinely enthusiastic about Astronaut Academy and really seemed interested in knowing what my thoughts were behind it. I talk a lot about the quirky language, eclectic cast and emotional enthusiasm! The video includes lots of art from the book and I even wore a tie for the occasion!

I’m super excited to share this interview I did with author/illustrator, Katie Davis on her fantastic podcast, Brain Burps About Books!

Be a Space Cadet with Graphic Novels! Interview with Dave Roman

We talk about Astronaut Academy, Teen Boat, how art school can make you afraid to draw, proposing through comics, and tons of other fun stuff! My favorite part is just hearing someone else (besides me!) describe and read scenes from Astronaut Academy! I also created a downloadable Doug Hiro comic strip that will debut on her Brain Burps newsletter, so be sure to subscribe!

Katie’s blog and podcasts have been super helpful to me these past few weeks leading up to my big book release. I highly recommend it to all creative people looking to learn more about the world of books for kids! It’s impossible to not be inspired by all the cool stuff Katie does!
