Ah, those referrer logs. Mine are currently revealing that several people are currently reposting my comics in their blogs -- I wouldn't mind, only the praise goes to the reposter, and not to me ... and it looks like Alison Bechdel's led her straight to this little photo-story I did a while back, not to mention all the associated wrangling on livejournal about whether lesbians preferred cats to dogs and whether Princess Anne was a likely name for a queer('s) dog!
And here's her response -- a very kind comment and link! There's even a link to Caption! So nice! I got a lovely email, too -- not from Alison herself, but from Cathy Resmer who works with her. Scroll down the page to check out the cute pictures of Alison Bechdel and
krisdresen, among others, and don't forget to check out Shameless, her latest strip -- about Pride, and isn't that appropriate for this week, what with the Big Gay Out (groan) coming up. Cynthia (the blonde girl on the bike) is this reactionary christian right-to-lifer, but I have dark suspicions about her. I think she might be covering things up.
Me and my soap operas ...
Note: closer reading of the Dykes to Watch Out For website informs me that "bat life" (lepakkoelämää) is finnish slang for "promiscuous lesbian." Seriously. It's in the FAQ.

-- what the blogs I mentioned are doing are remote-linking the entire strip, without including a link back to my site, which is mildly rude, but not so-much-so that I'll actually complain to them or anything.
I mean, you can always figure out where it's from from the web address.
I'd put in a vote for Mabel. It helps if the name lends itself to a long list of nicknames. As in (for my little dog) Sophie, Sophetta, Sophenator, Sophadiddle, Diddle.It's only too-cutesy when it's someone elses dog.
My other dog...Angus, Gus, Gustifer, Gustifer Nugget, Nuggety Boy.
Must. Get. Back. To. Work.
I think I might go for Princess Anne, actually. I love the image of two dykes in a park at twilight yelling "Princess!" after their errant puppy ...
Hm, I wonder if heteroqueers (-have I just invented a community segment?) can go to Gay Shame?I fancy it...
