The Oppegaardiest Thing I Saw Today

Yes, another guest artist today!

My pal David Oppegaard drew this accurate picture of his home office a little while ago. I didn't have the sense to post it then, but now I have seeeeeeeen the light!

Plus, I wanted to direct your attention to a writing contest Dave is advancing in on Amazon.com. Ch-check out the segment of his novel if you need a laugh, and write a review if you have a chance!

Actually, the MAIN reason is that he has one of those great Scandinavian names with the double vowel thing. Hot.

In this scene, the artist, a writer by trade, depicts himself hard at work in his creative space. We see tinges of the common stereotypes of devoted authors and a really nice drawing of the cat, Opie.

This drawing was created soon after Oppegaard sealed his first publishing deal. His first novel, The Suicide Collectors, will be released by St. Martin's Press (this is the same publisher as Puzzle Master Will Shortz! Holy Moly!).

I have another of my drawings ready for tomorrow..that is if you still come back after I have shilled for my friend. I am really excited for him! Woot!
