Gorey covers were so fun, I thought I'd give another kind a spin. When I was about 10 years old, I was put in the hospital for about two weeks. The only things they had to read there were the entire collection of Nancy Drew books, and I think I must have read all of them at that time.
I'm almost done moving, you guys. I will be so happy when it's done! Hopefully things will slow down then, and I can get back to more dependable updates. I got to spend some important family time before I left, because it becomes a rare and precious thing once I leave this province. I made some comics during my visit, you can see them, here. With much love to my mom and dad. In other news, the charity fundraiser is going so well, thank you to all who have contributed so far! But there is still time, and we can do a lot more! Here is the information again: The fine charity organization Women for Women. is linked to this event - The Run for Congo Women. It's a series of running events held in different cities, with the proceeds going to help Congolese women rebuild their communities. How awesome! Conveniently, I am moving to New York just before the run there. So I am doing it! Would you like to join? We started a team - Liz Baillie and I (and check out her comic if you're unfamiliar!) - and it's called 'Team Comics.' So original. You can register here, just be sure to join our team in the form, if you want to come with us! Or write to me is you have any questions! Or heck, go on your own. It's only a 5k run, not a crazy marathon, so don't worry about being super athletic! Just come out and have some fun, and we can raise some money for a good cause. For those who would like to sponsor us with donations, you can do that here. As I say on the fund raising page there, to be able to do something as a community of artists and readers is truly wonderful. So, let's try! |
