Cartoon @ MindSay

Well, I did it.  I opened up a gmail account and have sent inital change of address emails to my French and Mexican lesbian sisters.  It is never quite simple for me writing in other languages, it takes lots of time to make sure I am not asking someone to stick an olive in their eye...or some other misadventure. Now it is back to the cartoon business, I've got toon deadlines looming.  I wonder what a life without deadlines would be like?  I've been doing it so long I can't even imagine life without the fear of  a good stiff beating from an editor or two ( which is far more gentle than the pummeling publishers can hand out!)  Life... beating or not...I gotta love it...

 Yep, tell me about your New Year's adventure (past or present).  It dosen't matter if you stay at home snuggly in bed or drink and dance the night away --- I want to know your story. Then, I'm going to let the characters of my comic strip live your story.  You'll get credit for the story idea and I'll post the cartoon here for everyone to see. So... tell me your story and I'll get drawing...

To launch the arrival of my cartoon strip on a new web site I am doing a series of three toons based on the Dicken's A Christmas Story. I think that's the title -- you know -- the one with Schrooge.  Anyway, instead of "the ghost of Christmas past...etc"  I am doing The girl of Christmas past .. present ... and future.  Here is the one titled The girl of Christmas present...  the one below is The girl of Christmas past...  soon to come The girl of Christmas future...  By the way the new web site is: www.fleurdelez.com  -- the series will be there soon...

 

And gals -- who wants to admit THEY have a toy drawer, closet or for you more adventurous types.. toy room...

Back to the cartoon business today.  I am going a little crazy waiting for a business email from Belarus  (spelling?).  Is it possible that they sent one and I did not get it?  Or maybe... my email skills suck.  Does anyone have any ideas on how to get someone to return a business email quickly?  Or maybe... there are some "email manners" I should know? Help...

My buddy's 15 year old niece drew this picture. This is coming from her point of view on this election. This is my first blog entry. Hope you like it. Vote Obama!!!
