We've been playing an occasional group sketch game called "
Art By Committee," where I share an an actual excerpt taken out of context from a science fiction manuscript and we see how a few of us mad illustrators put a picture to it. Below is another example taken from the original sketchbook.

What follows are the zany, witty, and wonderful sketches that you all came up with for the line: "I never understood why you were with him in the first place," followed by the one that originally appeared in my book. Thanks again for contributing. Let's take a break for a week because I'm on the road, but I'll toss out another line in the future.

Oh, wonderful, wonderful!!
I particularly love that fridge, and the Minnie/Daisy and Alien sketches. Thanks for sharing, everyone!
These are great!! The last one is perfect, down to the 80's hair and earrings!
I have to admit I'm a fan of the puffer-fish head! But I loved all of them. This is a lot of fun.
I drew something but forgot to send it in because I'm trying to study for a midterm. Shoot!
These were awesome! =)
Fun stuff! I wish I'd had a chance to participate this time.
