Toon Thursday, As Promised

So this is a Toon Thursday I came up with several weeks ago but just couldn’t properly bring it to life, so it languished as notes in my sketch book until yesterday, when I finally was able to render it visually. (That, in part, is why the last toon was a pie chart–I can always fall back on the good ol’ pie chart.) Anyway, enjoy.

I suspect the reality for most of us is a combination of several of the above…

About the author

Sarah Jamila Stevenson is a writer, artist, editor, graphic designer, proofreader, and localization QA tester, so she wears a teetering pile of hats. On any given day, she is very tired. She is the author of the middle grade graphic novel Alexis vs. Summer Vacation, and three YA novels, including the award-winning The Latte Rebellion.

  1. Hahahahah! Remember WRITER'S DIGESTS! I bought them a year old and wanted to throw them away – I could have had a room for them – SO DANGED HUGE.

    But, I, like, DO have an MFA in, like, life. Just so you know.

  2. I love the whole toon, especially the expression "post-art."

    I'm a combo of hard knocks and self-taught. A graduate of the school of, "They told me for Pete's sake not to be a writer because it doesn't pay anything, so I studied and found gainful employment in another field, but I couldn't stop writing, so here I am."

  3. I'm so happy you noticed (and laughed at) post-art. 🙂

    Hard knocks kind of did it for me, too. Only it was more of an "I went to art school and realized I didn't want to teach, so then I decided to become a writer." Because THAT logic made sense. 🙂
