Welcome to Draft Nine.

Draft Nine is a creative space for digital artist and writer Joseph Mazzaro. Over the past two decades, Joe has showcased his talent through an array of 10+ self-published books, ranging from lighthearted comic strips to horror-fantasy screenplays and wistful, dramatic narratives. Among his notable books is "The Maintainer," a collection of illustrated short stories inspired by the early career of his father in the New York City Transit Authority.

Joe invites like-minded visitors to not only explore his work, but delve into the depths of their own narrative artistry and creative potential.

Joe also — occasionally — refers to himself in the third person.
