Competition!
Some of the subscribers might have missed the competition I added to last Friday’s cartoon, so I’ve added it to the blog as well. Simply fill in the blanks for whatever topic the emperor is being duped by now. You can either post your script in the comments section or download the blank template, add your script and email it to me at [email protected] (if you want to match fonts, I use Digital Strip for the dialogue and Helvetica Neue Condensed Bold for the headline. But don’t sweat it, something handwritten will be fine). You can enter as many times as you like. Best entry (as chosen by me) gets a free print of any of my comics. Closing date is Friday 26th March. Good luck!
COMPETITION NOW CLOSED.

Over the last 18 months, as well as scribbling out the odd cartoon, I’ve been working on a storybook for my kids. I put a lot of hours into creating it and believed I had made the best of my fairly basic drawing skills to produce a fun, exciting story – a time travelling adventure involving dinosaurs and Egyptian mummies. I finally managed to finish it off and sent it off for internet publishing (
persevered and got ready to read it to them. (“Do we have to read it now?” whined Fergal. “Yes”, I replied.) After we’d finished, I asked them if they liked it. “S’alright” was Niamh’s mumbled reply, whilst Fergal’s was a more direct “No. Can we put the Wii back on now?” Rather crestfallen, I shuffled off and left them to their video games.
doesn’t want to be seen to be too enthusiastic and Fergal is a contrary wee bugger at the best of times (I don’t know where he gets that from). Within the week, they’d both asked me to read it again and it’s now become part of our regular reading, as they both now love it. Although Niamh has pointed out that she actually never stands with her hands behind her back like I’ve drawn her on the cover (and she’s right too – I should make review all my work). Anyway, if you’re interested, you can download a PDF of the whole story below. Enjoy.
