Got those loose ends about Ronnie tied up, so we can return to the focus of the party – Kaida! (Seiko's such a show-stealer. I can't convince her to be quiet and sit in the background for a while. :P ) I researched and practiced drawing cash registers a bit for this page. Just one of many items I previously tried to draw from imagination without having a grasp of their structure. ^_^;

FAN ART CONTEST

I just ordered a number of copies of my book, and I figured I would have to do something fun and give a copy away. So, I thought a fan art contest would be fun.

GUIDELINES:
~Let's go with a "friendship" theme.
~Entries must contain at least two Used Books characters. (They don't have to be central characters or good guys.)
~Keep it plausibly canonical. (It's okay to be hypothetical with relationships and what-ifs and set any time in the timeline.)
~Bonus points for recognizable UB settings!
~The rating must be UB appropriate. T+ please! (Basically anything that would pass in a PG13 movie or primetime network TV.)

DEADLINE:
November 6th
FIRST PLACE:
A copy of Used Books: Execution ($15 value)
SEND ENTRIES TO:
Either upload somewhere and PQ me with the link or email usedbooks@comic.com

All entries will be posted on my main comic with a link to the entrant's own project(s) and will later be moved to my fan art archive. I'll have my sister and my good friends Gael and Bethany help pick a winner.

DAJB: You mean Seiko? She's never owned a book shop. She just lives in one (and is an academics geek).

ghostrunner: Lol

Tantz: One of Dame Christie's more interesting twists. :)

Peipei: Unfortunately, with the potential for leaks in the department, they have to circumvent procedures. -_-
