FLUKE ART SALE!

Hey artists and people who like buying art and people who like to support FLUKE!

The FLUKE art sale - benefitting the FLUKE expo, of course - will take place 11 am- 7 pm on Dec. 11 at Bizarro Wuxtry, 197 E. Clayton Street, Athens, Ga, 30601.

Would you like to send art for the sale? You can drop off your work at Bizarro Wuxtry between noon and 6 pm from Nov. 27-Dec. 10. Or, you can ship it to Bizarro Wuxtry, 197 E. Clayton Street, Athens, Ga, 30601, attn: FLUKE. No work will be accepted after Dec. 10.

If you are shipping your work, you must e-mail FlukeArtSale@gmail.com for a simple agreement that you will need to print, sign and send in with the work. This way, you'll have proof that you've submitted work, and we'll have a record of it too. We'll e-mail you a receipt once we get your art.

Folks dropping off work in person, we'll have an agreement for you to sign. See above for the reason.

And, guess what? Artists donating work will get 50% of the sale from their piece - all the while supporting comics, zines and independent publishing. Hooray! All sales transactions will be processed and profits sent to the artists by Dec. 20.

Happy Halloween! MJ

submission update

Hi dudes! This is Mary Jessica. I'll be doing the PR for FLUKE this year. You also will see me performing trapeze during FLUKE's show at night, if you stick around long enough.

Anyway, a brief l'il update on submissions:
If you want to send submissions electronically, please make sure that those jpegs and tiffs are at least 350 dpi, and, as Patrick mentioned previously, 5.5 (width) by 8.5 (vertical) inches (digest size). We prefer tiffs, though. We also enjoy snail-mailing (does anyone still say that?) CDs of images over e-mailing.

And if you want to just draw something on a piece of paper and send it in the mail, that's A-OK too.

Something important to note: If you don't want us to use any of your work in publicity materials, please let us know. We'd like to be able to give newspapers and magazines images to be printed with any potential articles. This isn't the same thing as you being hired to do illustration work for the newspaper or magazine, so you wouldn't be paid. These images would just be considered to be part of the press materials we'd send out in publicity. If that isn't appealing to you, just let us know that your submission is only for the anthology and no publicity, 'kay?

You can always e-mail us with any questions at flukesubmissions(at)gmail(dot)com.
Thanks dudes, and I'm excited to see everyone at FLUKE! MJ
