Ten-Minute Blog Break - 3rd November

I may be a little late for the Halloween party, but I hope you'll forgive me as I round up some spooky posts that have manifested before me:
First up is Claire O'Brien, who shares her Halloween portfolio piece and a selection of images from her hard work during Inktober.
The Big Little Tales crew have certainly gone large for the season - their blog post contains a spooky image from each of the illustrators in the team (Katriona Chapman, Shana Nieberg-Suschitzky, Anne-Marie Perks, Trish Phillips & Loretta Schauer).
Finally, head over to Dom Conlon's site for a creepy short story about what "knot" to do on an overnight camping trip - The Scout Witch.
Sarah McIntyre would make an excellent tour guide, as her exhaustive post about the Lakes International Comic Art Festival proves. There are yetis, pugs, skanky pigeons, a brace of ridiculously young comic creators and (of course) some really elaborate hats to feast your eyes upon.
Staying with comics, Sam Zuppardi has an intriguing story called "Professor Valdemar’s Final Experiment" in the new issue of anthology comic Radio On, and he's running a competition to win a copy. Find out more at his blog.
Write what you know? Vanessa Harbour isn't so convinced about the wisdom of that aphorism, as her blog post discusses...
Nick.
P.S. Any milliners amongst you will be pleased to know that I have just discovered that Sarah McIntyre has an entire gallery of her hats on Pinterest!

No comments:
We love comments and really appreciate the time it takes to leave one.
Interesting and pithy reactions to a post are brilliant but we also LOVE it when people just say they've read and enjoyed.
We've made it easy to comment by losing the 'are you human?' test, which means we get a lot of spam. Fortunately, Blogger recognises these, so most, if not all, anonymous comments are deleted without reading.
