Bitter Girl Lookalikes: Lynn

Here's the latest. BG reader Quatre writes, "I figured I look most like Karima or Lynn… the sultry programmer gave me
more inspiration." Did she ever!

You know, I said this wasn't a contest, but I've changed my mind. Sort of. Every entrant will get a prize...just give me time to figure out what. Meanwhile, send a mailing address when you send your BG lookalike snapshot!

Cartoonists' Summer Squiggle Game, Part 2

Second part of the everybody-wins doodle game we played back in July at the Eisner Awards in San Diego (see 11/14)...who's Bechdel, who's Forney and who's Hilty? Unfair clue: for some reason, I didn't make it into this round. At a certain point everyone got distracted.

Girls! Boys! Girls!

From the Juicy Mother 2 reading in Cambridge, left to right -- like you needed me to tell you that -- DiMassa, Cruse and Camper. Torn between being sorry I couldn't go and grateful I didn't show up because I would never have looked this cool. Still, I will be joining Jen and Diane at Robin's in Philadelphia on 12/1, wearing black leather to try and keep up. See News & Notes for details.

Cartoonists' Summer Squiggle Game, Part 1

There's no rhyme or reason as to why this is going up now, but relax, you'll still like it. At the Eisner Awards back in July, which are very long, Alison Bechdel, Ellen Forney and I started playing the "Squiggle Game". Draw a squiggle, pass it to the next person who finishes it off and draws another squiggle, and then the next person... You get the idea. Just figure out who's who.
