This one needs some explanation but I'll keep it simple. When I was 4 years old I was hit by a car. I still have a large scar and crack in my forehead. The following two panels are from a story I am putting together about just not only the crack in my forehead but my theory on why I continue to hit my head...
If you'd like to follow my cracked head exploits feel free to stop by my "Head Injury" log on facebook. Here's a photo of the scar on my head (please note that the tiny cut pictured was recently acquired when I hit my head on my desk, the scar is below). Don't laugh, it's not funny.
went through your "official head injury" log...
ReplyDeleteyou poor guy... how do you manage?

talking about head injuries... i had an accident once, when the car i was travelling in, rammed a steam roller... i hit my head... and broke a nail(?)... that particular part of my head doesn't have any sensation anymore... that accident was some 6 years ago... :P
Hi Chuck,
ReplyDeleteI just saw the comment that you left on Tao and Then. I'm a little slow sometimes. About 19 days slow. I appreciate your comment about the unlikeliness of getting syndicated. I think at this point I've been rejected about 7 times if I count Uclick, however that one seemed like a premature rejection, so I'll go with 6 rejections thus far.
Thank you for sharing your experience with nearly becoming syndicated - how maddening was that? I too have been rejected by Creators, Features, and King, but at a form letter level. Once I received a very comprehensive review and rejection from Creators, but that as close as I ever got to syndication. I drew for my college paper for a year and several children's education books that were distributed throughout Asia, but that's about it.
I think I need the creative process more than I need the syndication at this point. It'd be nice, but it's not a necessity. I am however finding that I'm selling a fair number of mugs on my site. Didn't really expect that.
Love the bad illustrations you've been posting. Especially the Richard Scary piglet who wants to be a butcher when he grows up. So twisted. I love it.
