It's an honor just to be nominated
Hijinx Willow Glen has been nominated for the 2005 Will Eisner Spirit of Retailing award!

it will be a blowout party, as long as it isn't one week after our
anniversary sale and two weeks before Free Comic Book Day like it is this year.
Two of our three participants actually finished their books with time to spare, while one is now regretting his choice to use full sized bristol board instead of something smaller. I'll let you figure out who finished...
