First, a little reminder — if you enjoy reading this blog, please help! No, I’m not asking for money — just two painless seconds of your time to vote for this site, http://www.sirinthada.com over at http://shortyawards.com/special_awards/microblog! This site is a labor of love, and, well, a little love back will help it continue to grow! Oh, AND, there’s still time left to enter my latest giveaway — I’m extending the deadline to Thursday. A HUGE thank you to those who have been kind enough to vote already — you rock!
Now on to the fun stuff! I am SO EXCITED to launch a new Sunday series, the survival of which depends entirely upon YOU. That is to say, if you like it, I’ll keep doing it, and if not, then I won’t.
I’ve always a been a huge fan of the New Yorker Cartoon Caption Contest; so I’ve decided to do my very own version, right here! Anyone can participate, and here’s how it’ll work. Every Sunday, I will do a small drawing and post it here. You will have until Friday, 11:59 pm EST to email me your caption. The text can be anything — clever, funny, serious, witty, mysterious, heartfelt… The only real requirement is that it should interplay with the drawing somehow. I’ll read through them all, and pick the one that I like best. Then I’ll post the chosen caption as well as a new doodle the following Sunday. Lather, rinse, repeat.
And what happens if you’re the lucky winner? You’ll get mad props of course… AND I will mail you the original drawing, with your text added in — it will be a free souvenir for you to keep!
So, to recap: email me your brilliant words at sirin@sirinthada.com, with the subject line “CAPTION” by Friday, 11:59 pm EST. Feel free to include 2-3 sentences about yourself, any links to your own site, etc. which I will be happy to post if you are the winner!
Can’t wait to see what y’all come up with, here’s the very first drawing for you to brainstorm — let the games begin! -

While I liked the concept of this drawing, I have to admit I’ve been dying to redo the artwork for some time now. Much happier with this version!

(On a side note, many thanks to iamthecrime for helping me find cool new tunes… Without good music in the background keeping me happy and energized, tonight’s drawing and many others would not have been possible!)

HAPPY NEW YEAR TO YOU ALL! Going to get all teary-eyed and sentimental now. This has been one incredible year, and I am so happy to have made so many new friends here. Grateful for so many things. To all of you, here’s to the amazing times to come. Lots of love and laughter, forever looking and listening, and always always always learning…
