Rejection landed. Sting lasted about a day.
Then something unexpected happened that’s changed the whole direction of eejits.

…and the awesome Duck & Frog by @samshawdraws.bsky.social
Yup….. 😢
Together they're a disaster, as they stumble from one catastrophe to the next but somehow that's where they both belong.
At the heart of it all are two wee pals from different Clans. FOOG, a shy wee eejit, worries about everything and BOWG, the rambunctious rascal, who fears nothing (mainly because he never thinks that far ahead).
eejits is a Scottish comedy series for 6 to 12 year olds, set in The Glen — a hidden world o’ curious clans and creatures, where common sense never caught on and nonsense reigns supreme.
I’m trying to redefine my eejits brand o’ curious cartoon creatures and have been noodling an elevator pitch.
I’ve moved the focus away from an ensemble cast of clans & chieftains (they’re still there though). Now it focuses on two wee eejits, two pals from different clans.
How does this read?
Do ye desire a delicious new eejits CoMiC?!? Then you’re in luck. Feast yer eyes on this fine serving o’ the HAiVERiNGS, served fresh today!

Why are the young chiels using ‘spenny’ to mean expensive?!? Bloody nonsense. 🙄😂
Thanks Jen. I’ll have a gander.
Never seen the Detectorists. I must admit I know nothing about Small Prophets (only having seen the trailer).
Is it from a continued book series? Excuse my ignorance…
Oh - is Small Prophets worth watching? It has piqued my interest.
Meet FOOG & BOWG - two wee pals from different Clans. #eejits
Animation done by GatumS from a single pic I sent him.
Thanks Brad.
Oooh yeah. Loved the Madballs as a kid. Can’t wait to see more.
Thus is brilliant. WHY isn’t there a World of Warcraft animated movie?!?
I’ll have a coffee (black) and croissant (blueberry) please. Only if it’s not too much trouble. 👍🏻
I need to build up my BlueSky audience and step away from the cesspit o’ news that’s in Threads.
It’s luvverly here. 😁
Thanks Jen. He’s recovering well. Already tried to bolt out the back door when I was leaving the house. 🙄😆
Yeah it’s amazing to think the pattern is on his skin too.
Poor wee Randall broke his leg the other weekend and unfortunately it couldn’t be saved. 😢
As traumatic as it was for everyone, amputation was the best solution.
He’s now a week in being a tripod cat and coping really well. (Better than his owner 😭)
He’ll be back to being an utter frig soon.
…and there’s no words to describe this idiot.
Don’t be fooled. This cat is a frig.
I was thinking about The Glen, the world the #eejits live in and the other creatures that inhabit the place. We already have Wild Bagpipes and The NOO, so what other weirdly Scottish critters could be running, or in this case flying, about.
Sporrans, of course!! Here’s my interpretation…
My latest newsletter is out - news about my continuing efforts to get eejits developed into an animation plus you can hear me speak some Scots wurdies for ye!
