| "If you want to be a cartoonist, you have to do the work; |
|
 | I'm not sure what I want to be exactly but I want to do just what I'm doing here with you. | |
|
| And what is it exactly you are doing here with me? | |
|
|
|
|
|
| you can't just talk about your characters and plot, and research endlessly. |
|
| Trying out different brands of fun. I don't like work that is too much like work. Is that so terrible to admit? | |
|
| And you do have the tendency with big projects to over-research... | |
|
|
|
|
|
| You actually have to make finished pages and finish your work." ~James Sturm (in Nycgraphicnovelists.com) |
|
| I mean, what Sturm says totally makes sense but what people like me need is a way of working that is not like working, but more like, "Yes!" | |
|
| Sturm's advice is better for potential fame; your way is better for Yesness and Joyness and Woo-hoo-ness! | |
