Awards Train!

I’ve been nominated for four awards in the last few weeks, so I thought I’d consolidate everything here, at the risk of not following the guidelines, which I never do!  But first some thanks:

Thanks to Verba Mea Vita for the Thanks For Writing and the Versatile Blogger awards nomination!

Thanks to Nerd Musing for the One Lovely Blog award nomination!

Thanks to AdverseUniverse for the Kreativ Blogger award nomination!

I’m really excited that so many people are enjoying my comics.  Thank you!

So now I’d like to nominate some blogs, and I’m going to just nominate 6 for everything, because I’m too lazy to list 40 blogs! I hope it’s ok if I do this and that WordPress won’t explode from lack of rule-following.  I’m such a cheater! Ok, here they are:

1. The Blog of Funny Names

2. this is lemonade

3. MAZE A DAY

4. Flying Weevil

5. Falar Ler Entender

6. Delightfully Peculiar

They’re all good.  Read them now!

Finally, instead of answering questions about myself, how ’bout I list some artists who’ve influenced the style on Mister G Kids:

Jim Henson

John Lennon

Dr. Seuss

E.H. Shepard

The Phantom Tollbooth (Jules Feiffer)

Yay!

Sunshine Award

There are a handful of Mister G kids fans who have been there from the very beginning, and who are so loyal it seems as though they are already clicking “Like” on my comics even before I post them. 🙂

One of these friends at the blog this is lemonade recently nominated me for the Sunshine Award because I bring sunshine to their day with my comics.  Thank you! this is lemonade is a lovely sunny shiny blog that makes people happy.  Please check it out.

And now I’d like to nominate these loyal friends for the Sunshine Award:

Our Process is a political cartoon blog, and the artist is a substitute teacher like me!

lifeasgood is an omnibus of compelling images and writing to encourage a view of life as an act of good

Nonoy Manga is a unique and colorful manga blog

I would add this is lemonade but they already got the award! Yay!

Sunshine Award nominees are supposed to answer questions about themselves.   this is lemonade broke the rules so I am too.  Instead, I’m going to list some cool things I learned recently:

1. Lactose is in milk but also in the forsythia plant!

2. The interstate highway signs are shaped like shields because they are inspired by the shield on the Great Seal of The United States!

3. Eel sauce! Someone told me about it yesterday, and that it’s not made from eels, but you put it ON eels.  But no! I looked it up and it has eel extract in it! EWWW!
