Show Us What You Got.
Yesterday was a "lost day" in many ways-- matters Clickwheelian took me to London for most of it, and I kind of let my hair down for the rest. So let's make this big announcement NOW.
Gisele Lagace and I have joined the ranks of webcomics-to-print with The Best of Enemies: A Penny and Aggie Collection. To celebrate its launch, we're starting an official FANSTUFF CONTEST.
(Thanks to Maritza Campos and Cory Doctorow for some inspiration. Note that we're not following either of their rules exactly-- read on.)
Virtually anything that's based on Penny and Aggie qualifies: games, icons, fanart, Photoshoppery, fanficiton, novelization, poems, filks, essays, mp3s, audio performance, video performance, animation, sculpture, cosplay, clubs, conventions, humor, MiSTing, origami... surprise us. The piece we like the best will get a free copy of the book and a signed original sketch, and anybody else who submits work by the rules will show up on our fanstuff page.
We reserve the right to make an exception if somebody does something really inappropriate-- like, oh, creating an ad-free mirror of the site or using their fanart to assist in their stalking. But I don't think you guys will do anything like that. We have smart readers. (Even if you do get Sara and Karen mixed up. ;-)
Note that you can also use the cover images from the Alias comics series, the OhNoRobot listings and just about anything else that relates to Penny and Aggie. Deadline is May 20, just in time for finals.
Use our creativity as a springboard to express your own. I think we'll all be proud of the results!
