Hourly Comic Day

Hourly Comic Day is gone gone gone but you can challenge yourself EVERY DAY. A great way to get yourself out of a rut or a dry patch, especially if you try paring down your drawing style to the bare essentials like this guy:



The guidelines are here as well as some links to examples: http://hourlycomic.com/hourlycomicday.html

And the fella who generally runs the event has his own non-autobio comic here at Pictures For Sad Children: http://www.picturesforsadchildren.com/index.php

A few Graphic Novels that I have read recently.

The first one is "Fruits Basket" about a girl who has lost her mother and is all alone in the world until she meets some guys who are apart of the zodiac signs. Whenever a human touches them they turn into their zodiac form. It is also a t.v. series and the link to episode 1 is right below. The writer is Natsuki Takaya.
