[Groop] Hello?(OT)

[Nate Piekos]

Jeez the groop is slow.... am I even on it any more?  

Well, things are quiet, so I'll share my wonderful news... 

~ I did my first in-store signing to promote LINT McCREE #1 last weekend.
Things were slow, but hey, no ones knows who I am anyway.... but I had fun.

~The T-shirts I designed for Blambot arrived today!   You get 2 free fonts
with it that are exclusive to this promotion.  Just 12 bucks +s/h.  check
em out:  http://www.piekosarts.com/blambotfonts  just click on "BB Shirt"
in the nav frame.

~I've also been asked by COREL magazine to write an article for an issue
this summer!  I'm totally psyched!  Since I use Corel software exclusively,
they thought it might be cool to run a one or 2 part piece on how a comic
is computer edited from scan to final output with their software.  Turns
out their chief editor is a big comics fan too!    They even offered to let
me do the cover of the mag!  It's a weird feeling to have been reading that
magazine for years, and pretty soon, I'll get one in the mail that I'm in!   

Just thought I'd share the good news.  How's everyone else doing?  Well I
hope.

Have a good holiday weekend for those of you who celebrate Easter.... for
everyone else, have a good weekend like any other! (I'm cooking for a small
group of family, mmm, turkey!)
