So often, as was the case with my comic, I had notebooks full or partial ideas. Lead-ins lacking an ending, or punchlines in need of a delivery… all I could do was collect them as they hit me. Eventually I’d have a complete idea. This worked for comics, art projects, and even some writing I’ve done over the years.
My comic stripping days are behind me (4 years in college, one brief stint a year or so after, and another six month run a decade hence. Yet, I find my creative idea gathering still works much the same way. Notebooks, scraps of paper, etc…
Now after a couple months of letting ideas percolate on the back burner, I think I’ve got three or four good complete ideas, so I’ll be debuting these one a month all summer at my Cafepress store!
Stay tuned for some cool summer duds!
