Vision Quest

Since I’m way more “wayward” than “cartoonist” of late, I decided to take this weekend and attend Intervention, a webcomics / gaming / digital culture convention in it’s 2nd year in Rockville, MD. I’m here supporting a few friends attending as guests &/or vendors, but one of my primary motivators in attending is to seek inspiration from the...

Regarding the end of "Cathy"

I posted this as a reply to one of the dozens of disparaging posts on Facebook (and elsewhere) that I’ve seen reacting to Cathy Guisewite’s retirement of “Cathy” (and presumably, her cartooning career): I’m not understanding all the hate toward a fellow cartoonist. Cathy was certainly not among my favorite comic strips, but I’ve gotta commend any artist who...

Yeesh. I gotta remember to take my meds

I’ve been away from the blog (and from cartooning, mostly) for a week now, and just looking back at my last post, I’ve really gotta lighten things up a bit. I think what has been tripping me up about this whole process is that even though setting the goal of producing a strip isn’t all that difficult a goal, it’s still too big a step for me to be taking right now, given...

The Wayward Cartoonist has thus far been a failure

In September 2008, I decided I wanted to return to cartooning by conceiving and publishing a webcomic. While I have made some negligible progress on that goal over the past 21 months, it hasn’t been nearly what I feel it should have been. Since my current efforts are focused mostly on building my business and organizing a local comic/cartoon creators’ community, I must admit to myself...
