What a month it was! Laura and I both set personal bests for words written and words written in a single day. Our region had a banner year for winners, and a grand time at all the events put on by our awesome team. And we’re FULL of ideas for the new year! Thanks to those of you who sent us good wishes, and congrats to all the winners among you! And if you have no idea what I’m talking about, nanowrimo.org is the place to start. 😉

Hollywood tends to skip this detail, but there’s no usable DNA in a strand of hair; what’s needed is in the waxy wad of skin at the base of the hair that comes out IF you pluck it cleanly. If the hair breaks mid-strand though, that’s fairly useless to forensics, except to tell you that you’re looking for someone with (at least some) long blonde hair, which Val doesn’t exactly need a crime-lab full of scientists to figure out.
You know what might have been cool, since you’re obviously okay with including cameos of other webcomic artists (or their fictional creations)?
Have this scene take place in Coffee of Doom, from Questionable Content.
