So much for that idea. For now.
You know, I have to admit that I’m not a very *good* blogger. I’m inconsistent. I’m required to be consistent as an employee, as a husband, and as a father – that’s about all the consistency I can handle.
Recreational activities (like this blog) don’t get that level of commitment. I guess that’s the difference between me and Will Wheaton. That, and the fact that my part on Star Trek, The Next Generation, was cut during the pilot.
All of which is to say that I don’t think I’m going to do any more cartoons for a while. When I drew the first three, I thought, “Hey, maybe I can draw a lot of these and have a successful web comic and/or submit them for print syndication.” (Eight years ago I did, in fact, submit 6 weeks of a daily comic strip for syndication.)
But doing that really doesn’t gel with my other goals at the moment. Drawing isn’t, actually, all that much fun. It’s the initial creative process, and the positive (usually) feedback from the readers, which make cartooning enjoyable. So, right now, it’s not the thing to do. Oh well. That’s not to say, of course, that I won’t change my mind.
