• The last panel of Set to Sea will be up on Friday, and then the whole story will stay online until September 10th! So between now and then would be a good time to pass it along to a friend. After that, you’ll have to shell out for the book if you wanna read the whole thing, heh heh.
• I found this pretty cute discussion of Eleanor’s Secret Science Alliance the other day. I think it’s from some midwestern bookstore discussion groups? They all had similar complaints about the super-complex visual busyness, (though they were sure that children these days liked that sort of thing) but they were all really sweet and positive about the book. One reader warns about searching for the author online, as Eleanor’s done a lot of dirty drawings. It’s true!

• Last week was the week of potlucks, I went to three in a row. Good thing my friends know how to cook! I’m feeling really positive about the medium of the potluck right now.
• What? Miyazaki might be making a sequel to Porco Rosso? That was a gorgeous movie, but I don’t really know if it needs a sequel. Also, if the new Studio Ghibli “Borrowers” adaptation doesn’t do well, Miyazaki threatens to press the Ghibli self-destruct button.
• Cartoonist Laura Park lost her cat, Lewis, recently. She’s been working through her grief in some really beautiful, sad comics. Best wishes to her.
