It appears that Bankruptcy Bill’s haiku is not the only source of poetry drawing inspiration from the state of the economy.

NPR’s Studio 360 has a story this weekend about Katy Lederer, a poet who spent several years working for a hedge fund and now has a book of poetry titled Heaven-Sent Leaf on the topic of modern money-making.  You can learn more about her by following her blog at http://heavensentleaf.blogspot.com/.

Great work courts success.

Yet one  thing still irks Lynn.  “It’s

Mr. Lopucki.”

We’re a little delayed getting out the next Bankruptcy Bill strip, so I thought this would be a good opportunity to let everyone know about other illustration work by Gideon Kendall, available on Amazon.com.  Promoting Dinopets and The Caveman’s Pregnancy Companion:  A Survival Guide for Expecting Fathers will also hopefully help Gid avoid becoming more intimate with BAPCPA than necessary.

No new cartoon today, so instead we offer a recent New Year’s drawing from Gideon Kendall, illustrator of Bankruptcy Bill.  To see more of his work as well as books he’s illustrated, go to www.gideonkendall.com and/or http://www.gideonkendall.com/books.html.

“From the bloated remains of 2008 unfurls the new year, fragrant with possibilities.”
