Competition!!
I had heard over the years that Margaret Atwood was a closet cartoonist, but it is only recently that I finally got the chance to see samples of her work. Check out this great site , which is about all things Atwood, including samples of her comic strips.
And if you wanna see the gal in cartoon action, then you might enjoy this old CBC clip – Peter Gzowski interviews Ms. Atwood in 1978, when she was contributing cartoons for the then relatively new This Magazine.
Peggy's pretty darn good, dammit!
Thank you for these links! The radio clip of Margaret drawing her cartoons is hysterical! What a dry wit she is. I am definitely a fan!

So I'm not the only closet cartoonist who is also a novelist...? Great company to be in!!!
