((Don’t forget, only on day until the sorta kinda Austin premier of "Dead Things<\/a>" at Nueva Onda!<\/a>))<\/p>\n

remember a while ago, when i won the contest run in conjunction with Pinkwater’s "The Neddiad<\/a>" by coming up with a snazzy slogan for Wentworthstein’s Shoelaces<\/a>? Well, they have already sent me my prize of original artwork from the book, which I would like to show you now:
\n
\nit’s a dinosaur. pretty spiffy, no?<\/p>\n

i put it in a $1.49 frame that i got down at the Dollar Deals store, and hung it in a position of honor in my living room.
\n
\nthe artist is Calef Brown<\/a>, an author and illustrator who has collaborated with daniel pinkwater in the past, and according to the information i have gleened from google, is actually a blue elephant. brown did seventy-one such drawings as chapter headings for the neddiad novel, but i can only presume that he chose the best one for me. because i’m a winner.<\/p>\n

i friend of mine saw this picture and told me a story about how when she was in a bicycle circus that travelled throughout the northeast, they wrote daniel pinkwater and invited him to join the troop. pinkwater wrote back, declining on the grounds that he is a particularly large and un-athletic author.<\/p>\n

everybody has got their pinkwater story.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
