Welcome Patience & Sarah
What’s Happening is pleased to bring you Eugene's own and beloved Pa
tience & Sarah by Jan Eliot. A true native of Eugene. Patience & Sarah was
first published about 4 years ago in the Willamette Valley Observer. Since then it
has gained a large following of fans, both in Eugene and around the country. It
currently appears in the Portland Family Calendar, Parents Press in Oakland
(both monthly papers), and The Single Parent (the journal of the national
organization. Parents Without Partners).
Recently it has captured some important national attention. In November, the
National Cartoonists Guild will hold its 16th Annual Meeting in New York—a
gathering of some of the best cartoons and cartoonists in the country. Patience
& Sarah will be part of a panel discussion and slide show on women and car
tooning and will be in the company of some of the nation s finest cartoons by and
about women. Panelists will include Nicole Hollander, known for her character
Sylvia, a regular Ms Magazine cartoon.
Jan would love to attend this conference, but at this point does not have the
necessary funds to do so. However, she has come up with a plan that can’t lose!
She is selling her original Patience & Sarah strips—all of them, from the very
beginning. These originals are approximately 3 times as large as they appear in
print, about 20 x 6 inches. So if you’ve got a favorite you’d like to own, call
What’s Happening at 484-0519 right away. Jan is eager to sell, and the strips
are both affordable and priceless. They'd make terrific gifts, too.
Two other reasons for Jan to get to New York have to do with the possibility of
syndication. King Features, the nation's largest cartoon syndicator (Blondie^ Rex
Morgan. etc.) has expressed interest in purchasing Patience & Sarah for syndi
cation. Ms Magazine has also expressed interest. Patience & Sarah has already
appeared in Ms several months ago, and will appear again in the January or
February issue. Jan would like to see it become a regular feature.
Meanwhile, Patience & Sarah will be a regular feature of What’s Happen
ing. Thanks, Jan. And good luck!
Patience & Sarah
