Curses! Foiled again!

Us starving artist (and writer) types have to have day jobs so that we can slightly less starving. Our commitment to not being homeless has unfortunately made it impossible for us to webcomic this week.... But do not fret! I have all sorts of news and updates for you! Yes, you specifically!

1.) I wrote you a mad-lib:

A(n) [adjective] Fairy Tale

Once upon a time, there was a(n) [noun] who longed to be a(n) [noun]. He wished upon many [plural noun] and [plural noun], but was quickly beginning to feel hopeless. One day, a(n) [adjective] [noun] [past tense verb] into town and proclaimed, “If any one can [verb] me at [type of card game], I shall grant any [adjective] wish that they desire.” The [first noun written] [past tense verb] at the chance, and began practicing his game.

He practiced [adverb] every day for a week. At the end of the week, he [past tense verb], "[Gerund] is [adjective]!” [Verb] his [participle] [noun], he [past tense verb] through a [noun] [preposition] [noun] [punctuation] [verb] the entire [noun] [punctuation] [Pronoun] [past tense verb] the [adjective] [noun] to [previously mentioned card game], and so the tournament began.

Feel free to share your versions of mad-lib-madness in the comment section! What fun!


2.) For all those bad ass mofos who pre-ordered t-shirts: you're bad ass. Also: the tiny and local (to me) t-shirt place is both tiny and local. They're behind schedule (due them being tiny and so many of you being bad ass), but I've been promised that they'll be in my possession this week. I'll mail them out as soon as humanly possible after that!


3.) Contests are in your future! (Ooo!) As is the Beatrice book we keep threatening you with! (Bigger ooo!) Also: more merchandise! (Biggest ooo!)


4.) Here's a stock photo of a cat I found on the internet:
You internet-people love cats, right? (I love cats, too!)
