10K is a Contract

Okay, so we made the 10k readers for Twitter that I begged for (in so unseemly a fashion), which obligates me to take a day to do sketches for charity. Not wanting this obligation to hang over my head for too long, I’ve chosen this Saturday, the 29th of September as the day.

My planned schedule for the day will be this:

Get up as early as I can.
Begin sketching immediately.
Draw entirely what I feel like drawing, at any given moment.
Finish as many sketches as possible before bedtime.
Go to bed.

Since my pal Brad Thomte is staying with me for a bit, and since he has skills with computers and scanners and such that I do not, I may dragoon him into service on Saturday, scanning the sketches as they are completed, and posting them here, in a running tally of the day’s work.

And then, one at a time, I will (meaning Brad will) post said sketches up for auction (most likely on eBay), and keep doing so until the supply runs out. I won’t put them all up at once, since that seems likely to undervalue the individual pieces. Depending on how many pieces I can complete in one day, the auctioning phase of this stunt seems likely to go on for a few weeks.

And when all is done, and all the money collected, we’ll shoot that cash forthwith to the fine fellows at Hero Initiative.

Sound like a plan?
