Happy Thanksgiving!
I’ve done a guest post over at the Dodeline + Design blog. Check it out!
And be sure to visit Dodeline’s Etsy shop. She makes beautiful, graphic cards often with a touch of humor. This is one of my favorites.
Angry Pear will be at Expozine 2011 this year in Montreal. If you’re in the area, be sure to stop by and see Angry Pear and many other small publishers and comic book artists that will be displaying there. I’ll be selling mini-comic books, pear cards, little polymer pears, and pins. You can preview some of them in Angry Pear’s Etsy shop.
EXPOZINE, Saturday, November 26 and Sunday, November 27, 2011, from 12 p.m. to 6 p.m. at 5035 St-Dominique (Église Saint-Enfant Jésus, Laurier Métro). Free admission.
Please note: Angry Pear will only be there on Saturday. Not Sunday.
For more information on the event and to see the other vendors, visit Expozine’s website.

Last week Mature Student Hanging in the There passed The Versatile Blogger Award on to Angry Pear. I’m really honored by this, and I’m happy to pass the award along to 15 other blogs that I enjoy.
But first the Rules of the Award:
Rule 1 – Thank the person who nominated you for the award:
Thank you Jacqueline! Although I only recently started reading Mature Student Hanging in There, I’m hooked. As her blog title suggests, she writes a lot about the challenges and successes of returning to school, but tempers her stories with humor and relatable anecdotes. What I find particularly lovely about her blog is that, while readers may not share her experiences exactly, she manages to captivate her audience and make her tales universal.
Rule 2 – List seven things people may not know about you:
1. Pears are not my favorite fruit to eat.
2. I don’t own a cellular phone.
3. I like Victorian novels—Vanity Fair is one of my favorites.
4. I like to knit and design my own sweaters and dresses.
5. I enjoy the “occasional” cocktail.
6. Like Angry Pear, I am easily peeved.
7. I am a fan of Doctor Who.
Rule 3 – Nominate 15 blogs you think should receive this award:
Here’s a list of the blogs I enjoy. It was hard to limit the list to just 15. They are all over the map in terms of style, topic and execution, but they are all lovely!
In no particular order:
“It’s important to have interesting topics of conversation. That keeps a relationship healthy.”
“Let’s talk about what you’re getting me for my birthday.”
(Read the first “Pear Relationships” here: Pear Relationships)
Sometimes pears wish they had their own private chef.
Yes, I missed both August and September, but Pear of the Month is back for October! Let’s relive what the pears have been up to last month.
Please pearuse the list of candidates below and then place your vote using the poll on the sidebar. Click on the links beneath each image to see the full post. Voting will end in about one week.

“Wrong kind of cup.”

No. Not juiced! (How awful!)
