The St Colin and the Dragon books have now arrived. So if you pre-ordered, you’ll be getting your copy soon. If not you can get a copy here.
I’ve also changed the My Cardboard Life gift sets in the shop to include St Colin and the dragon. Browse around the shop to check that out.
You can now pre-order the print version of St Colin and the Dragon!
Here’s where you can find out more about it and pre-order a copy for yourself (or a gift?).
Buying things in my shop is the best way to support My Cardboard Life and keep me making more comics so I’m really grateful to everyone who does it. Thank you! Also thank you to everyone who shares my comics on twitter, reddit, stumbleupon, facebook, telling people about it in person and any other way of spreading it about. It really makes a difference so please keep sharing!
This is a panel from the bonus comic “Celebrity Clopsy” which appears in the print version of St Colin and the Dragon.
I’ve been counting comics and I know that the 700th My Cardboard Life comic is going to appear on Friday 6th April! To celebrate that I’m going to have a week of guest comics and fan art starting from Monday 9th April!
Anyone who wants to make a guest comic or some fan art (or any other kind of My Cardboard Life themed thing) is welcome to join in. PLEASE DO JOIN IN!
It’s best so send something before the guest week actually starts so Sunday 8th April is the deadline (but if you send something during the guest week it will still get included). Make sure you let me know if you’ve got a website I should link to with your guest comic.
Send your comics and pictures to mycardboardlife (at) gmail . com.
The last time I had a guest week was for the 30oth comic. The first of those is here and you can carry on from there to see the rest of them to get lots of ideas. There are links to more in the blog thing underneath each guest comic too.
If you’ve got any questions you can ask in the comments, or email me. I’m really looking forward to seeing what everyone sends!
Here’s a great piece of St Colin and the Dragon fan art by Fabes. Thanks Fabes!
I’m really glad that St Colin and the Dragon got so much positive feedback. Thank you for being such supportive readers.
We’re already about 20% through 2012. It’s gone very quickly!
For the past month and a half I’ve been doing the St Colin and the Dragon storyline. This is going to be finished next Friday (23rd March). It’s been the longest story arc that I’ve ever done for My Cardboard Life. Writing a longer story is completely different to writing one-off joke comics every day let me tell you. I’ve really enjoyed it though and I hope you liked the story too. “Normal” comic updates will resume on Monday 26th and some time quite soon there will be a print version of St Colin and the Dragon for you to buy.
In the meantime, the shop has been re-stocked with copies of Dr Bandaid’s Hot Guide to Romance, so anyone who was waiting for those you can finally get them. Also I recently added some new risograph prints to the shop. Check them out!
In May I’ll be visiting Toronto for TCAF 2012. Come and see me there if you can! It’s on the 5th and 6th of May and entry is free.
I’m also at several other comics shows throughout the year around the UK. There’s an appearances section in the right hand column which lists them all. The next one is Comiket in London on the 21st April.
Soon I’m going to be reaching my 700th My Cardboard Life comic. Since 700 is one of my favourite numbers, I thought I’d do another guest comic party week like I did for the 300th comic. I will do a proper blog post about it nearer the time, but for now you can have a look at the previous guest comics which start here, and consider joining in with the next party.
I reckon that’s enough news for now. The next blog update will probably be about the St Colin and the Dragon book so watch out for that one!
