I could draw Bloom County with my nose and pay my cleaning lady to write it, and I'd bet I wouldn't lose 10% of my papers over the next twenty years. Such is the nature of comic-strips. Once established, their half-life is usually more than nuclear waste.

- Feel
- |
- Nov 07, 2020

- Mars
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I knew 'Mars Needs Moms! ' would be a movie seconds after the title came to mind. Similarly, I also knew that my daughter would be calling me a dork as a default term of endearment eventually.
- Heart
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I can say that even in the midst of my most cynical comic stripping: Opus shone through with a bit of heart, anchoring the ugly proceedings with a comforting pull of emotion.

And that's why any of my picture books exist: They all seem to be built backwards from a simple, emotionally optimistic story beat.
- Change

My post-child period resulted in one instant change: I write shorter books for kids.
- Price
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I paint digitally now. A pity, in some ways, as the biggest price one pays is that you no longer have a finished piece of physical art to hang on a wall. I miss that terribly.
- Drawing

- Imagination
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I'll confess right here that I secretly wish I'd have drawn a strip about a little boy with a fake tiger, going for adventures throughout the universe in spaceships of his imagination.
- Never
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I drew the last image ever of Opus at midnight while Puccini was playing and I got rather stupid. Thirty years. A bit like saying goodbye to a child - which is ironic because I was never, never sentimental about him as many of his fans were.
