First up at 8 a.m., Kelly Brother will speak to us about 901creatives!  I think the group is a great network for members of the Mid-South Cartoonists Association!

Next is Julia Lovel who will speak to us about Chronocomics, a website that will pair comic artists with sponsors!  You can also read more about them in The Commercial Appeal’s Feature Section (click here).

You can also see some images from the Sivads of March and a 1971 live appearance Sivad made at www.muleythemule.com.
