Well, ActionToonTV is MIA....

Not going into details, maybe some day...

Before I started self-publishing...

You know, I never would have predicted I'd have books and comics published and available on Amazon by the age of 30. But here I am.

And though they are not perfect books by any means, that opportunity does not happen to every cartoonist online.

So it's not all bad.

Boring Life

Ever since I stopped attending art school and community college. Ever since I became famous, I feel like my life has been stuck in some kind of weird emotional and spiritual Purgatory for the last 12 years, stuck at a computer desk or two.

IT SUCKS. The entire world has passed me by.

"STOP THAT WRITER!!! NOW!!!!""

Some people try to "Talk me out of writing this much". Yeah, right. They're all envious, obviously. Like that'd ever happen! Ha ha! The habit is too hard wired into my mind now. It's automatic. My words in my word processor are like bullets in a machine gun, ready to mow pretty much anyone down as circumstances warrant. I'm very at home here. I'm comfortable here. On a word processor. Any word processor, really. In a perfect world, my artist's psyche wouldn't be blocked, and would be just as bulletproof as my journal sessions, but by now it's obvious to me bulletproof art work schedules and bulletproof writing schedules are entirely different things.
