A stick-figure Shakespeare comic by Mya Lixian Gosling
Puns are awesome! And Shakespeare is full of puns!
"Really? Where are the puns?" I hear you ask. Well, NEVER FEAR. The PUN POLICE are here!
(It's not funny if you have to explain it...)
Also, it's almost Thanksgiving (in America)! The Good Tickle Shoppe will be having a Black Friday-through-Cyber Monday sale, so check back later for more details!
You know when you're in the audience at a Shakespeare play and one of the Famous Monologues arrives and you can feel a susurrus ripple through the theatre as everyone tries to say the lines along along with the actor on stage?
Don't be one of those people.
In other news, I'm collaborating with a friend of mine on a new comic, Keep Calm and Muslim On. I don't have a set update schedule for it (probably "whenever I get time") but you can keep up with it on Facebook and Twitter if you're interested. Here's a sample comic:
Also, if you've ordered something from the Good Tickle Shoppe and it hasn't shipped yet, don't worry! I'm still working my way through the inundation of poster orders. I'm sorry it's taking me so long, but I'm almost caught up.
Today's comic addresses an oldie, but a goodie.
Incidentally, on OKCupid one of the questions they ask to determine if you'll match with someone else or not is "In the line 'Wherefore art thou Romeo?,' what does 'wherefore' mean?" And the multiple choice options are "where", "why", and "who cares". And then you can rate how important this question is to you.
In other news, I'm still single.
It's finally here! Let's get this farcical election over with!
I'm with her. "Her" being Elizabeth Regina/Gloriana/Good Queen Bess, of course, because I'm not about to tell you how to vote.
Don't forget my Shakespeare Flowchart Poster is available now! I've received a ton of orders in the last few days (thank you!), so it might take me up to a week to get yours to you, but they are going out!
THE END IS IN SIGHT! ONLY SIX MORE DAYS UNTIL IT'S ALL OVER. HANG IN THERE, PEOPLE.
Tune in next Tuesday (a.k.a. Election Day) to find out what happens!
In case you missed it, my Shakespeare Flowchart poster is finally available! It makes a great gift for the fellow Shakespeare geeks in your life, and if you order more than one you get $5 OFF each poster!
What's an election without a scandal or two?
THEM'S FIGHTIN' WORDS, SIRRAH
Yes, it's finally here! Get your very own 18"x24" poster version of my Shakespeare Flowchart comic!
I'll start shipping these out on Wednesday. Depending on the volume of orders, it might take up to a week for me to fulfill your order, but they're FINALLY GOING OUT! I'M REALLY EXCITED.
It's almost Halloween! I hope you have your Shakespearean Halloween costume all ready.
Here are some more ideas from past years:
Not gonna lie. Desdemona's handkerchief is still my favorite.
Happy Halloween, everyone!
