Snowball Fight

White was the color prompt for this week’s Colour Collective challenge. Everybody loves making snow-people during the winter months, but I got to thinking it might be cool to make some cats and dogs as well. (Nobody said they had to get along though.)

This is my polar bear that I posted a half hour before I posted my main cat & dog post above.  [Note: This post is backdated to the twitter post date. Added to blog 03-01-18.]

Miss Mizzou Book — Year One

mizzou-fall-2015
Miss Mizzou is the cover story in the fall 2015 issue of MIZZOU Magazine.

A lot of interesting things have happened with my book Miss Mizzou: A Life Beyond Comicsthis last year. There has been a lot of press for the book, I’ve made a few appearances, and there was also a Miss Mizzou exhibit up locally as well. In September 2015 I wrapped up a full year of blogging about the character, and you can check out the blog highlights here. The response to the book has been really positive–thanks to everyone for their support!
