Dream Life, a late coming of age
charlie's childhood friend is about to die
Hitchhiking in BC PJ's luck runs out
Lionel is in existential free fall.
His sister Leslie is a therapist, and part time drug dealer, 
it's just occurring to her she hates her jobs
her friend Dan's daughter 
thinks he needs to grow up
the story of five friends.
dreams drugs and denial, 
all failing to weather the arc of life unscathed,
each coming to terms with lives peter panned, and in danger of going off the rails.
one part intrigued
a little bit of a ode to Charles Schultz,
and all my friends
gen x coming of age story. 
Dream life is one of those weird comics,
it's more like an orchestral piece. 
only you allow the artwork rather than music to
buffet you through the emotional highs
 and lows of each movement.

Hi i'm Max Douglas. I'm a cartoonist and i work under the pen name Salgood Sam.

I'm 30 pages shy of completing the first half of Dream Life, a late coming of age.
my longest and most personal work to date.
I'd like to be able to publish book one in time for TCAF [Toronto Comic Arts Festival] 2013.
But to do do so i need to fund about three months of intensive work
To finish those thirty pages, and print a small run of the first edition.
to do that i'm going to try my hand at crowd funding.

With your generous support via indigogo, I'll be spending the remainder of 2012
completing book one.
