Awwh, too bad!

When I saw this on the magazine rack at HEB tonight, I COULDN’T believe what I was seeing! George Clooney - gay??? Matthew McConaughey - his cruller of love???? Oh, it was more than my poor heart could take, beating as fast as it was! Forget the Harry/Dumbledore/Snape slash fiction, here was a personal wet dream come true! All I could ask the Universe for was the chance to see them out at Rain some night (from my mouth to God’s ears) making out on the dance floor. Shirtless (maybe that’s asking too much).

Then cruel cruel reality set in as I snatched up the Heaven-sent People magazine and saw exactly how far the Universe would go to make sure there would be no boys-in-love superstars in my life. Why deny me, Universe? Why?!?

Anyway, here’s what the reality was.

Damn those racks at the grocery store! I like my version better.

24 Hour Comics Day

Scott McCloud’s mind-blowing challenge, The 24 hour Comics Day ended today at noon. I participated 2 years ago (when it was still held in April) and wrote The Latter History and Subsequent Burning of Little Red Riding Hood. Let me tell you that is was one of the hardest things I’ve ever had to do. I mean, a page an hour??? By myself??? From scratch??? BUT it was an amazing rite of passage. Even though I didn’t finish, I certainly accomplished something.

Last night, I stopped by the Austin Museum of Art’s Laguna Gloria location looking GLBTQ folk who may have been participating. I found Katy Riggs and Regan Johnson, and got an article up on Prism about them. I can’t wait to see what they came up with in the end.

So, to anyone who is at all interested in getting into comics - DO THIS!!!!!!
