#233 Frequently Asked Question
My wife told me about some neighbor on her street growing up who would always walk around with a cat on his shoulder. She and her friends called him “Catmandoo”. That’s me. I completely blame my friend from high school for my love of all things kitty. When we were roommates, she lured in the cutest little guy and adopted him. But eventually she had to move out and I was stuck with him, so I became his cat dad. I miss that little doodle. Now, I’ve got a white prince and a little fatty. Check out my Instagram feed and you’ll see them. One of my dreams is to retire and run a cat sanctuary…a cat farm.Bonus hilarity:
About MY ADVENTURES IN COMICS
Since I had no confidence in my drawing skills, I figured I’d take a bunch of photos and organize them into a comic strip. Everything about the comic was inspired by real life. However, it started to get difficult telling a story or writing a joke around photos and it felt like I was doing everything backwards.
So, at the end of 2014, I thought I’d try my hand at writing a joke first, then drawing. Thus, the comic was reborn. Though it seemed simple enough, I wondered if I could keep it up regularly. And now, here we are.
My Adventures in Comics is A COMPLETELY FICTIONAL strip inspired by life, love, family, work, cats & dogs, and music.
Tools: pencil, pens, paper, and Comic Life program.
