*GREETINGS FROM THE WORLD’S WORST BLOGGER…
Loading...So I’m still trying to find out when my new daily, the Knight Life, will be launching in the Washington Post and the Boston Herald. I’ll post it as soon as I find out.
Meanwhilst, it has started in the Detroit News and will be launching in Albany, New York, where I gave the worst interview of my life. I kept on talking about Detroit, then I realized two-thirds of the way through that I was talking to a reporter from Albany.
Wanna get away?
The posters are slugging it out on the Sacramento Bee’s forum about the strip. If you want to put in a good word, head on over to the site by clicking here.
*I’LL BE IN SANTA ROSA AND SAN FRANCISCO THIS WEEKEND!!
Doing the artist in residence thing at the great Schulz Museum on Sunday May 18th from 1-3pm. I’ll be drawing and signing copies of my new K Chronicles collection, I Left My Arse in San Francisco.
My Arse will be in San Francisco, Tuesday May 20th at Intersection for the Arts. It’ll be a graphic novel panel sponsored by the JCCSF and will feature Miriam Libicki, Ariel Schrag, Jaime Cortez and yours truly. Slideshow and panel starts at 7pm.
Attend both and win a prize!!
*LETTERS/EMAILS OF THE WEEK..
When I flipped to the comic section this morning I
nearly flipped out in surprise. They are test-running
your strip in our paper!
I’ve followed your strip on Salon, bought all the
K-Chronicle books and am gearing up to get the latest
one. I sincerely hope your new strip will catch on
with the readership… tho fearfully I suspect
Sacramentans are “Garfield” people. But I went
straight to the paper’s web forums to post my props,
and saw a whole bunch of others voting “yes” for
Knight Life in 08! Here’s hoping!
Also, congrats on the Solo Show @ Cartoon Art. Totally
swinging down there in June to support your work.

Hi Keef,
I am stoked to open my Sac Bee and see you in the pages. Congratulations! I wore my Keef on the Throne t-shirt today as a sign of support, and I will tell the Bee that this is the most brilliant strip I have ever read and will cancel my subscription if they don’t pick you up for good — even if you left SF for LA.
It’s got to be tough to break into the daily paper. Some of your work that are my favorites deal with some of the less than family friendly topics. But don’t forget the politics. And we love our babies; do you have your own little diaper soiler yet?
Best of luck to you, and hoping to see you every day,
m.
K,
“Once upon a time in the play ground”
You should win a Pulitzer Prize for that one!
I am behind the curve, I should have said these years ago!
Much Love for what you do,
A.
(going waaay back for that one. before the war started.-kk)
Keef,
I’ve been a fan of yours for some time, reading your work on
Salon.com. When I saw “The Knight Life” in the pull-down on
comics.com, I was expecting… well, some sort of midieval
Wizard-of-Id thing. Figured I’d check it out. Didn’t even have to
see the byline to know that I would now be seeing daily goodness from
you.
(Adds to bookmarks)
I must admit, though, that I am DYING to see how far you push the rules of
syndication.
Rock on, man.

(i’m dying to see how far I can push it, too.-kk)
*CHEAP-ASS MOVE OF THE WEEK…
I’m just really starting to get the hang of the multiple bus systems here in La-La land. Back in S.F., you paid the fare, you got a transfer good for 90 minutes to ride any other bus on the system. Not so with L.A.
But I did figure out that if you get on a Culver City bus or Big Blue bus first, and use the LA Metro Bus for the 2nd part of the ride, you save big bucks.
First ride on Metro: 1.25 plus transfer to another bus: .35 = 1.60
Frist ride on Culver City Bus: .75 plus transfer to Metro bus: .25= 1.00!!
It takes a little bit o’ planning, but it can be done. Trust me!!
*IRON MAN=GOOD!!
Great start to the summer comic book season!!
