The most complicated part of making this page was placing the speech balloons. ^_^; My script didn't call for a "flashback" panel, but it seemed to fit pretty well. Actually, the center row is technically drawn as one panel. It was only after I fiddled with speech balloons that it became two.

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.

Tantz: Thanks!

ghostrunner: Nope.

Anubis: At least prunes promote regularity – oh wait, prudes do that too!

DAJB: Of course Jiro likes him! He's Kaida's oldest friend. ^_^ And he and Jiro went through an ordeal together.

Peipei: I miss that about urban living. You have to keep your door locked but you could do almost anything (legal) without fear of being "judged."

amanda: Yep. He's well-rested. ^_^
