Fact about Colin’s puppy: he doesn’t have a name! Can we fix this? What names do you think would suit him?

Here’s an anecdote about dog names. I was in the park once and heard someone shouting “PHIL! PHIL!” I assumed they were calling me but no, they were calling a dog named Phil. A dog. Named Phil.

Maybe Colin’s dog should be called Phil?

My sister used to eat lemons as a way of focusing her mind for difficult computer games. You should try it! I mean, it doesn’t work, but you should try it anyway, just for fun.

Look at this, I’ve made a Facebook page for My Cardboard Life. If you want to ‘Like’ it or something, here is the place to do just that.

Remember this guy? If not, have a look at his first appearance here.

CONGRATULATIONS! This was a wedding card commission. Thought you might like to see it. It’s Steve Sponge and Silvia Foil on their wedding day. Congratulations to them. And also, congratulations to YOU for all your latest achievements.

My own latest achievement is adding an ‘appearances’ list to the sidebar on the right. Have a look! I’m going to lots of events over the next few months. The next one is the Hypercomics workshop at the Pumphouse Gallery in Battersea park, London. It’s part of Comica Comiket. I’ll be there with We Are Words + Pictures. All the details about that are here on the WAW+P website.

The workshop is about designing characters for comics. Here’s a quick lesson for those of you who can’t make it to the event.

1) Find an object or item

2) draw a face on it

3) name it

There you go! You’ve just designed a new character! CONGRATULATIONS.
