Hey I’m doing a Kids’ Drawing Workshop at Puces Pop in Montreal this Saturday at 2pm. More info at the Pop Montreal site.

UPDATE: Here’s a photo Brenden took of the controlled chaos…

As usual, Chris and Peter and an army of volunteers put on a spectacularly organized show. It was really great meeting so many Ojingogo-readers and drawing in people’s books. Also, great catching up wtih Aaron Costain, John Martz, Zack Worton, Jillian and Mariko Tamaki, Jay Stephens and so many other amazing artists.

Ojingogo Won an Award

This is the Pigskin Peters Award – which I won at the Doug Wright Awards ceremony on Saturday. The award is beautiful – designed Seth himself – Brad Mackay has a longer description of the award on his blog. The hat hangs on a little peg on the plaque.

Chester Brown presented the award and said some ridiculously nice things. At one point I think I heard him say I was a “rock, solid cartoonist” and then everything went blurry…

First printing of Ojingogo is sold out… Second on the way.

I signed the last copy of the first print run of Ojingogo at the festival.

I’m going to make a few corrections to the pages from the first edition and send them out this week to the publisher. The second printing should be along in June.

Swedish Edition

I am also working to get updated cover design out for the Swedish edition of the book which will be published by Ordbilder Media and launched September 24 at the Goteborg Book Fair in Sweden.
