After speaking at the Gibsons public library this weekend, I stayed around to enjoy the peace and quiet of the Sunshine Coast. I stuck today’s cartoon to a big old tree stump behind the cottage and took this photo.
Update: Here’s a larger view! Also, thanks to everybody who wished me a relaxing vacation! 🙂
Today I’m celebrating seven years of Savage Chickens! Here are all of the characters who appeared in more than one cartoon in year #7. See how many you can identify!
It has been a busy year! The book came out, I had my first signing, I was on radio and other blogs, and I even did some public–speaking gigs. Plus a whole bunch of interviews. Next year is looking like even more fun: I’ve got a few new book ideas, the German edition of my book comes out in March, and I’m going to be a special guest at San Diego Comic-Con 2012. Crazy times!
Anyway I want to thank you all for making this year so amazing. I really could not do this without you, and I hope that you enjoy all the stuff I have planned for Year #8!
