Tags: Learned, Read, SayingBrits have a better sense of humor in most ways. It's darker, more cutting.
Tags: Humor, Sense, WaysI don't like drawing characters facing right. If I tried to do that at a book signing, I'd have to pencil it first.
Tags: Book, Characters, TriedI want a career writing these novels that I can be proud of. And then I want one as a screenwriter.
Tags: Career, Proud, WritingIf somebody is not on the same page with me humor wise, I can't give them that.
Tags: Give, Humor, WiseSticking to my schedule, I've gotten over seven months ahead, which allowed me to write a 'Pearls Before Swine' movie script for the big screen.
Tags: Big, Movie, WriteWe need more cartoonists to truly retire when they retire, and not run repeats.
Tags: Retire, Run, TrulyYou can write a little and can draw a little, but there's necessarily a limitation on both in a comic strip, since it appears in such a tiny space.
Tags: Both, Since, WriteI like characters like Ignatius Reilly in 'A Confederacy of Dunces' and Ricky Gervais's character in 'The Office.' They think one thing about themselves, but the truth is as far from that as it can be. So I began to think about how to put that kind of character in a book for kids.
Tags: Book, Character, TruthI write for three or four hours and then hopefully I'll have something. Then I draw for the rest of the afternoon... I literally block out Wednesday-Thursday-Friday - I more or less disappear.
Tags: Less, Three, WriteIf you're from a certain generation, you basically learn to read with 'Peanuts.' It's sort of the template for the modern strip. Its influence ceased to be noticed because it's in everything.
Tags: Influence, Learn, ReadMaybe the bar is low, but most of the strips that are 50, 60, 70 years old that are on their second or third generation of artists, the humor is pretty bland. There are others by people that were raised on 'Family Guy' or 'South Park' that are edgier. Mine's not as edgy as those, but it's edgier than 'Beetle Bailey.'
