Busy As a Beaver...wait, are beavers really busy? All they do is build dams. I mean, what's up with that? I'm WAY busier than a beaver...lazy bums.

ANYWAY.

The initial run of A Very Test-Tube Christmas has made it's way to Rock Bottom Comic books and the mailboxes of lucky individuals all over the US. I'm really excited about the way it turned out, and had a lot of fun getting people to submit some excellent work for it. It's only a dollar, so it's definately a lot of bang for your buck.

"But Scotty Z, how can poor little me get a copy?"

Glad you asked. I just updated the Test-Tube ordering page. You can check it out at http://testtubecomics.com/ordering.html and read all about how you can get your hands not only on a copy of the Christmas Special but all the regular issues you may have missed as well!

"That's SOOOOO cool, Scotty Z. I wanna have your baby!"

Uh, it's not THAT cool...

"It's cooler and harder than my nipples in the Arctic!"

Um, really, that's kind of wierd. Especially since I'm basically talking to myself. Um...anyway...uh...

I'll be sure to post some preview stuff from the Special later when I get a chance to breathe, including an unused piece from one of my favorite Canucks, Michael Wheeler.


In other news...

My mom had sent me an email saying that she wasn't too thrilled about the cussing at the end of my 24 Hour Comic Book. While I'm certainly not actively pursuing to put as much vulgarity in my work as possible in order to make it appear more mature, I tried to explain to her that sometimes, I'm going to have to use curse words in order to make things more realistic. My next book, Least Likely to Succeed (just like this blog *shock*), is about high school, and in high school (at least mine, and I'm sure it's not the exception), we cursed A LOT. I asked that she reads my work, not as her son but as a writer. She hasn't responded yet, so I don't know if that means I made a good point or not.

But seriously, does Quinten Tarantino get that type of grief from HIS mom?

...I like that line.

So much that it's the 50th time I've used it.

Oh yeah, I'm a writer.

Because I'd be worried if I'm something else.

I'm just dragging this whole entry out to an unnecessary level, aren't I?

Sorry.

I'll stop.

No, really!

Right now.


Okay, one more thing, though. Scott Morse is a stud. I received a package of limited edition mini comics he did plus bought Magic Pickle from one of the neatest comic shops I'd ever seen, Starclipper off Delmar in St. Louis. His stuff is AMAZING, and if you've never checked it out before, I suggest you do.

There, I'm done!

No, really. This is it.

Scott, you rule.

Mum can just be, well, mum. (Yeah, its your sister)

I guess Im just too desynthesized to have been bothered by the corse language, but then, Im also a university student.

I'm sure QTs mum DID give him a hard time. I mean, come on, she probably wasnt telling all the ladies at quilt-tying about her son's movie Resivor Dogs and that they really shoudl see it.
(sorry, my typing sucks, have a few minutes before class)
Anywho, dont let mum get to you.
I like your comics, and Im an avid comic reader.
I m also not saying this bc Im your sister who wuvs you very much (pinches cheek)

Hang in there! See you on Turkey Day
