Webcomic Readers Choice Awards
September 5, 2008 - Friday
This week the Webcomic Readers Choice Awards began taking nominations. The awards are organized by Philip Hofer (aka Frumph), who also runs the webcomic listing site frumph.net. How the awards work is that readers can go to the site and nominate their favorite webcomics for a number of categories. The top three in each category will then be voted on by a group of esteemed judges (which includes Steve Hamaker, who just recently completed the monumental task coloring the entire epic story of Bone). It takes a little work to get logged into the site to make the nominations, but if any of you could take the time to nominate Calamities of Nature for some of the categories, I would really appreciate it. I don't have any high hopes of winning, but it's still a really good way to let more people know about Calamities. By the way, if you visit the WRCA site, you may see a familar pink alien hanging out there.
This strip marks he end of the week-long comic marathon. It's been a lot of fun updating everyday, and I appreciate all the supportive feedback you guys have been giving me, both through the comment box and in e-mails. Next week I'll be beginning the Monday, Wednesday, Friday schedule. But hopefully I'll still find some interesting things to discuss here in the blog on off days. If you have any topics that you think would be of general interest to Calamities readers, feel free to e-mail me with your suggestions.
