Finishing Touches before Indy Comic Con

Finishing Touches before Indy Comic Con

I’m just putting the finishing touches on my latest hand-made dice trays. These will be available at the show this coming weekend or by special order through the my website. I started out favoring the purple heart wood, but the sheen I’m getting from blood wood has almost won me over. You decide which is your favorite. I’m using a Tung Oil finish on the dice trays to give them warmer, richer wood finish.

Deck boxes are being engraved now, and hope to have them finished early this week. I’ll post some pics of that later. The deck boxes will be finished in Polyacrylic for durability and speed.

Matthew Graphman is a thirty year veteran in the information technology world. He studied writing, drama, as well as computers while attending Bob Jones University in the late 80’s and early 90’s. There he met his wife, Wendy, of twenty-five years and started a family. He currently resides in Bloomington, Indiana with his wife and two children, Kathryn (Kat) and Ethan. His oldest son, Sean, is married and lives on the East Coast. Matthew has long been a fan of fantasy fiction. His first attempt at writing was brought on by his roommates in college. As a result, he wrote his first - still unpublished - fantasy novel. After graduating, Matthew continued his writing exploits, but his focus was mostly around theater. After developing a series of children's skits in the 2000's, he was encouraged to take the skits and convert them into a series of children's chapter books. To date, he has written five of the fifteen stories in the "Chel & Riley Adventures" series. Taking a break from creating children's fiction and drama, Matthew decided to reach back, at the request from his daughter Kat, and create a fantasy world that mixed all of her favorite thematic elements. This series is currently outlined to cover five volumes; however, he is convinced that there could be many more stories that evolve out of this new universe. Matthew is a recent winner of the 2016 and 2017 NaNoWriMo challenge.
