I'm re-posting this from the official Ugly Hill site:
There exists a text file on my computer that contains every idea I've had for Ugly Hill since it started way back in 2005. Every. Single. Idea. It's pretty darn big. A lot of those ideas get either forgotten or rejected for one reason or another, and since I'm taking next week off, I thought it might be fun to throw a little twist on the boring old "Guest Week" we're probably all so tired of. What follows is a short list of one line ideas for Ugly Hill stories that never got made. For example:
•Hastings commissions Peter to paint a portrait of his mother for her birthday.
The guest artist would then build a single strip around this concept, showing what they think would happen in that situation. If you're an artist and would like to try your hand at this, pick one of the ideas below and email me with it, just so we make sure nothing gets done twice. Here's the rest of the list:
• Eli develops a crush on Peter's underage girlfriend.
• Peter falls in with a gang of militant vegetarians.
• Hastings and Peter are sent on a business trip to China.
• Snug becomes mayor of Ugly Hill through a write-in campaign.
• Hastings' great-great-grandfather is the inventor of scientific racism.
• Hastings and Eli get invited to the wedding of a former classmate.
"Tales from the Ugly Files" starts this Monday, March 31st (short notice, I know!). I know there are some great artists out there among you, so I look forward to seeing how you flesh out these ideas!

Hopped over from the Dumbrella boards. :)
