April (which starts off with an April Fools guest strip from Charles Brubaker of Tex and Jenny) was in color before I switched hosts – and now it’s in color again. And now so is last April!

In other news, more V3 (and Z7) strips have been transcribed for Oh No Robot – thanks to Tankred, Kittenelite, and The Anonymous Benefactor.

Today’s bonuses: a sketch of a rumormonger writing his novel (and probably doing better with it than I am!), and a bad translation of today’s strip. (If you missed yesterday’s, it’s here.) Thanks for voting!

And also thanks to anyone who’s been putting in transcriptions for Oh No Robot – especially Tankred, who put in a bunch both for Station V3 and Z7!

I’ve signed Station V3 (and Z7) up for Oh No Robot, a search engine where you can search through transcripts of strips from various webcomics. So far about a month and a half of Station V3 strips (some from the beginning, some recent) have been transcribed. So that’s what the “transcribe this comic” buttons on most of the strips in the archive are for.

Today’s bonus is a very bad translation (which needs no transcription) of today’s strip.

Some good TV-related news: Two of my favorite Dr. Who stories, “The Claws of Axos” and “City of Death,” come out on DVD today. Also, The Office (US) is getting a full second season.

There’s been a lot of talk online about NaNoWriMo lately – which is to be expected, since November is the Mo in which you’re supposed to Wri your No… Basically, the idea is to write a 50,000 word novel this month. Not necessarily a good one – just to get 50,000 words down on paper (or the screen, stone tablet, whatever). So I might give this a shot – specifically, I’m going to try to write a Station V3 novel this month. I already know the characters, so that’s a start! If I come up with anything readable, I’ll let you know.

In today’s new voting bonuses (here, here, and here), we see Floyd, Morty, and one of the pirates (not necessarily in that order) also making their attempts at writing a novel!
