Some more good news in the friends of litfarm department. Jennica Harper, a poet, instructor at Vancouver Film School and someone I harassed at a house warming party not long ago, was just named a winner in the Comic Creation Nation contest. It’s put on by zeros2heros.com, a social networking site built for writers, artists and fans of comics (and other genre entertainment).

This means that Jennica’s script Abigail’s War is going to get made into a graphic novel, and possibly more. Check out the other winners and the writer’s guidelines. Be warned that if you’re from part of North America that’s not Canada, you probably can’t enter, because they’re partnered with a government sponsored arts organization.

Just one of the ways Canada keeps the rest of North America under its thumb.
