Woo! I never get tagged!  But the awesome supervillainess tagged me for the Pick 10 people and give them the "you make my day" award. If you're picked, you are charged with picking 10 of your own.  LJ whatsit, and I must tag in return!

And I'm going to say why!  First of all:

supervillainess gets a mutual tag-back.  She's a scent-and-soap genius, and my bathroom overflows with the wonders she makes.  I am a things-that-make-me-smell-nice maniac - and I use scent when I work as much as I use music.  Both are invaluable for opening up the creative mind, and if I need to smell places/moods/things/characters/whatever, I have a terrifying collection of stuff for that very purpose.  And most of my absolute bang-on favourite stuff is Villainess.  (If you also like to smell awesome, I can't plug her stuff enough!  That goes for guys, too.  Unisex yes.  Sextastic gimme.)  She's also funny, smart, and all round awesome. 

finkenstein is an endless tide of inspiring wonder.  She manages to make porn both filthy and charming at once - I'm going to be very sad when Chester is finished, and the vintage robot pink-bits carnival draws to a close. 

mutleyjames  - inky wonder.  Can elicit a gasp of awe from me with just a couple of freakishly well rendered lines. 

heykidzcomix writes a wonderful gay anarchist western called Goodbye Chains, and is also funny, smart and all round awesome.

andricongirl turns fabric, stuffing, yarn and assorted other bits and pieces into little critters of win. 

toniaw has been in the independent comic game longer than I have, and for all the right reasons.  So much love for Maxwell.

drjon - smart, funny, insightful, and all-round sweetheart.  Also shares the same geeky love of British 70's sci-fi that I have.

pirochan - queen of beautiful-man yaoi, in a style completely her own.

jenniferrodgers - wonderful artist of creepy things.

mighthaverhymed - doesn't keep his LJ.  But if he sees this, he knows why he's here. : )

Taggage ends.

And yes, it's been a while between updates.  The second half of last year turned into a bit of a nightmare, and as is standard, Grit is the first thing to get affected.  I am slowly drawing it now (just have to get ONE more THING out of the way before I can launch into it properly and hopefully pick up a bit of speed) - I'll post the odd teaser panel as I go.  I'd post one now, but so far it's all way too spoilery.

Awesome. 

Love the little look over the bed.  And the "Brrrp!" noise.
