Hey, SPX was pretty great! This time around it was a lot less stress - maybe we're just getting more used to these things. I actually walked around the floor and said hello to folks! Crazy. The new Fluke Anthology sold pretty well and got a great response - I just added it to the Little House shop, so click here to check it out and/or buy it.
There were lots of intimidating young cartoonists at this year's con! Eleanor and I have to step up our game! We got some incredible minis, and we're still making our way through our big SPX box. I'll yammer more about it in a bit.Labels: fluke anthology, spx

Here's a preview of the story I did for the upcoming Fluke anthology, which is in the process of production of right now! It'll be premiering at this year's SPX.
I got tons of great submissions. Too many to fit into one book. I'll be listing the final lineup in the next couple days!
It's gonna be pretty awesome.Labels: algernon lamb, fluke anthology
Hi, y'all. Here's some mildly boring pictures of Eleanor and me in England!
Yeah, we got back a long time ago. I just haven't had any art I could post up recently, so I've been keeping quiet. What did we do in England? Went to about ten million pubs, and drank about a million pints of bitter! It was great. You don't even have to tip in bars in England, apparently - though everything is about twice as expensive as here so you don't really save any money. We did a few other things there too, but I'll let you look at the pictures.
I didn't crack my sketchbook the whole time there, though. I've got to start being more disciplined.
OH HEY YEAH, the FLUKE anthology deadline! That was actually up a few days ago, but if you've been working on something and still want to submit it, drop me a line ( drew "at" drewweing "dot com" ) and let me know. Unless you already did. Or I emailed you.Labels: beer, eleanor, fluke anthology, trips
The story so far...Howdy! I have been mega-irresponsible with my internet stuff recently (updates, emails, etc.) Time to get with it!
Uh...
Fluke happened! That was major fun. The night of Fluke we had a big "Prohibition/Roaring 20s" party that mostly consisted of drinking a lot of homebrewed beer and wearing construction paper bowties and mustaches. We had a
bunch of friends come down and stay with us for Fluke and the week after. I'd write about that, but they've all gotten to it before me.
Though Fluke 2007 may be over and done with, the 2007
Fluke Anthology is still on the table! I've gotten some really superb entries in already - this is shaping up to be a really excellent book, and you should jump on while you've got the chance. Deadline's July 7th (7/7/07) - plenty of time to crank out a couple of pages!
