I'm banging away on cartoons to prep for my San Diego trip. Here's the latest. There are a couple others that will go up on my website soon.

I'm feeling down. I just need to focus on work and push through. It does make it easier to write the 'I'm depressed' cartoons. I shouldn't be down. Everything is good except for my relationships and my finances.

On other fronts, the New Yorker seems to be going well. Another professional cartoonist who has submitted 2000 cartoons and hasn't sold a single one. It made me feel better - then I felt crappy for feeling better. He's done some great cartoons too.

It's always cool to get a plug on other comics.

mister_punchy does some great stuff. Check it out.

Mark Russell reducing each book of the bible to 3 paragraphs and I'm doing a cartoon header. I'm also trying to get going on the old Grandpa Won't Wake Up book. This is from the Book of Joel.

Tonight... it's all about the Too Much Coffee Man book collection. I'm going to finish that damn thing... I'll post covers and I have them.

Here are a couple covers under the cut:

The New Yorker just bought another cartoon.

Here is one of the rejects;

New Too Much Coffee Man cartoons up on my website.

Yes. The one woman really was wearing antlers.

Just saw Amanda Palmer at the park. I brought a cd (cds are becoming the new LPs (ie. they're from a bygone era (there's a joke in there somewhere))) for her to sign but she was surrounded by bunches of goth type people. She was reading stories Neil wrote for her. It was sort of cool but it was also a little much for me to deal with.

I just got back from my highschool reunion. About 10 people came up to me with ideas for New Yorker comics. A friend of mine said "there's not enough alcohol here to make these people interesting."
