i, the concise daily newspaper published alongside The Independent, has been running a competition to find a new regular cartoonist (or multiple cartoonists?) for its pages.
There are three categories potentially up for grabs: pocket cartoon, cartoon strip, and editorial cartoon. I submitted entries for pocket and strip, and I'm really excited to say that I've been shortlisted for both categories.
Today's copy of
i features a sample from my proposed strip, 'Head On', as well as one of the pocket cartoons I submitted:
The paper also showcases
submissions from the other finalists in both categories (editorial cartoons are going to appear tomorrow). The editors are now looking for feedback on the finalists before making their decision on who should win and have a regular slot in the paper.
If you like the examples above and would like to contribute some feedback, it would be greatly appreciated - the email address is
i@independent.co.uk. I'll have my fingers crossed for this one - they're planning to make their minds up by the end of the week...
