No Boone in June

Or so it seems. I was hoping to hear word today about whether we'd been in the June competition, but it never came. Now, granted there's still three days left before the next competition starts, but I'm not holding my breath.

It's a bit disheartening, to say the least.

July is the Invitational month. So, August would be the next month we'd be able to compete. Of course, our 90 days ends on July 4th, which is cutting it close.

I'm a bit disappointed I won't be able to use the phrase, Boone for June, which was coined by Caanan Grall.

In the meantime . . .

What do you do when you're waiting to see if your comic is going to be accepted?

You write the next three pages of a story that might not ever see the light of day. Pages, I might add, that took way too long to write.

I will say, though, if nothing else comes of this Zuda experience, I will come out the other side of it a better writer. Writing in this format has taught me how to ''trim the fat'', so to speak--the value of being economical with words.

Boone for June

So, it looks like we won't be in the Zuda competition in May. We still have our fingers crossed for June.

Say it with me . . . Boone for June!
