I'd be a Libertarian, if they weren't all a bunch of tax-dodging professional whiners.

I drew the last image ever of Opus at midnight while Puccini was playing and I got rather stupid. Thirty years. A bit like saying goodbye to a child - which is ironic because I was never, never sentimental about him as many of his fans were.

A mind is a terrible thing. All this evolution nonsense is making me feel like a complete APE!

The digital world has allowed me a connection with my reader that I'd never had before. I didn't meet the people who read my material. The fan letters were mostly answered by professional people that'd done them for a living. And I didn't have any daily connection with their response to my work. I didn't have a relationship with my audience. And every artist should have it.

I'd be a Libertarian, if they weren't all a bunch of tax-dodging professional whiners.

If I could have drawn a cat yelling for lasagna every day for 15 years and have them pay me $30 million to do so, I would have.

My kids hear me behind my door, giggling like an idiot, and they roll their eyes at the blatant indignity of it all.
