Barcodes for the upcoming books!

These were made for us courtesy of Adam Krefman, at McSweeneys.net.

Oh, and we had to change the name from Kitty Fat to Monster Girl Media because our distributors thought it sounded like lesbian porn. I lost the argument, but Kitty Fat will come back as another incarnation with our merchandise.... "handfuls of Kitty Fat..yum."

Oh, above one barcode is for The Girl Must Die book, then there'll also be a book of postcards of some of the art.

Nice, huh? So grown up.

oh, illustrated preface sample... HERE

Book cover idea & Kitty Fat logo "sketches" (MINNEAPOLIS INFO BELOW ALL THIS)

so jefe did some "sketches" for me to riff off of below these. above, here are the drawings i stayed up to do. it's 3:02 am. a perfect time to get writing and drawing done. no distractions. i can watch british mysteries on PBS and miss enough that i can watch it four times and still not know what's going on...

even though jeffrey's sick as a frog, he just knocked these out below. isn't he incredible?
i can't believe i get to know him. sometimes i'm amazed i get to not only be myself, but know the people i know.
next life i fear i have to be a bipolar leper to balance all this out.

this book will be 6x6" and about 400 pages. it'll be like a tiny brick...



and jeffrey did up these logo ideas and wants me to use them as inspiration from which we'll draw a final one...

...and we've decided to call our publishing company: KITTY FAT.

why? because it's what MONSTER GIRLS eat!

...nah. because there's nothing better than a handful of cold kitty fat.
not even turning over your pillow to the cold side beats kitty fat.

but what's just as good is that i JUST got a grant from the Ludwig Vogelstein Foundation to WRITE the book!
they're the ones who gave me the grant that enabled me to ride cross country and write Flaming Iguanas when I got "laid off" from the xerox shop i raped and pillaged for my art, back in 1995 or 6.
they're good luck like you wouldn't believe.

i'm going around feeling so cool, i'm even going to sleep with AC/DC blaring in my ears because amazingness never sleeps, you know. i'm ready to wake up and stomp and prance at a moment's notice.

wish me luck with writing the rest of this thing. Please pretty please tell me what you think!
If y'all think i suck, i'm toast.

One Day I Want to Fuck and Eat Pie on the Floor.

Did i post this picture yet? (click on it to see it larger) this is my depiction of the VERY FIRST MONSTER GIRL IN HISTORY.
we wouldn't have found her bones because they would've been turned into things to stab people with.

more news later. i'm trying to be demure and coy here, but have my rectal exams on twitter. cripes that thing is a tool of the devil, making us post horrid news links and bodily confessions. it's waiting for someone to admit where a treasure is built.

(anyhow, even if i already posted this, i show it because i'm going to draw her EATING off the floor later. that's the only right thing to do.)
