So when I am not drawing comic books for you fine folk, I write articles for the internet. I use a variety of internet services for this, none of them pay particularly well. It’s sort of grueling work, in a weird and lazy way. You can make as much as you want, but you have to put in the time to do it, and it is dang difficult for a person as perpetually distracted as myself to put in more than a few hours a day on anything besides drawing, and I usually have about thirty drawings I’m working on at a time.

“One of the many ways that green homes are going to revolutionize our living experience is that they will remember, respond, and adapt to the people that live there.”

I just wrote that. It was 29 words. I could have said it six words, but I wouldn’t have gotten paid as much.

Now that the internet is literally my job, when I’m not drawing pictures on it I’m writing letters for it, everything is a little different.

I do love working from home, though. My garden is doing great.

Gewel and her grandmother.

Dawn in Hamshire, Texas.

Amelia attempts to eat the tie of her great-grandmother’s pastor. We took Amelia to church for the first time, at a very enthusiastic little place in Hamshire. It was actually mad fun.

Gewel about seven or eight years ago, from a picture her grandma had.

A photograph of a photograph of Gewel’s grandmother in elementary school. It was the 1930s in Dust Bowl Kansas, near a town by the name of Hutchinson.

Florida. Amelia and the ducks regard each other with interest.

Amelia over Sarasota Bay.

Sarasota Bay.

Ca d’Zan, a Venetian palace transported to Sarasota for John Ringling about a hundred years ago.

A weird little statue at the Ringling Museum. Knowing what I know about John Ringling I find this statue very interesting.

Gewel and Amelia at Big E’s. I never got this lady’s name, but she was cool.

Amelia sleeping on the floor in Sarasota.

Amelia and me.

Amelia meets her uncle Charles.

Charles and Gewel and Amelia and I go to visit Gewel’s aunt Tomara and her boyfriend Mike.

Charles and the baby like each other.

Rock star Mom.

Amelia meets her grandma.

A painting I found amusing at the Ringling Museum. I bet if you knew who those two guys on either side of the banner were this would be a very witty commentary.

Fascinating image, all the more so when you know some history of John Ringling. I really like the reflected EXIT sign, the artist should have included that.

One of Mia’s friends (I’m sorry, I forgot your name!) at Ringling. We were trying to do one of those photo trickery things but were undone when we realized wings come out the back, not the front.
