As of me writing this the results aren't online, but evidently QC won "Outstanding Slice-of-Life Comic," "Outstanding Character Writing," "Outstanding Dramatic Comic," and "Outstanding Romantic Comic." I don't put much stock in "awards" as a rule, but it's certainly nice to have people say such nice things about my comic. Thanks to everyone who voted for me, and congratulations to all the other winners and nominees. <b><font color=DarkSalmon >INC</font>: </b> dramatic <b><font color=DarkSalmon >INC</font>: </b> <b><font color=DarkSalmon > [quote] INC</font>: </b> I really like this week's strip! <b><font color=pink>QCmerch</font>: </b>: thanks!
