I'm the only one this month...

Not even Goro??!

Anyway, that's my tribute to a great book I just finished : 'The meaning of night.' by Michael Cox.

It starts like this : 'After killing the red-haired man, I took myself off to Quinn's for an oyster supper.' I guess I could have included the oyster supper to be completely faithful to that part...

Childhood Memories

2011-07-24T22:29:00.000-07:00

One of my grandmothers favorite stories to tell about me is the time that we were waiting in line for the grand opening of Sizzlers and I was staring at the McDonalds across the street screaming I WANT MCDONNIES. I was a big fan of my chicken McNuggets...and a little bratty. I'm better behaved now.

Childhood Memories

2011-07-21T23:04:00.000-07:00

My parents were busy when I was little... so I lived with my grandparents until I was 7.
I remember sometimes I played my toys and sitting on a motorcycle like a sandwich...

Childhood Memories

Running late ^^;
This month will be a little bit different from usual.
We thought it might be cool to have more interaction between the artists. So we came up with the idea to design a character that travels around the world. There is no restrictions to story, locations etc. as long as it includes the character and fits the title. Everybody can come up with their own story moments. Some might get inspired by other artist's story ideas and follow up and some might create a completely different story moment.
Now let's send this fabulous character on her journey! (designed by Lindsey)
