Obviously the great thing about this job is the complete freedom of the schedule. So long as I meet the deadline, they don't care when I work or how I work.

Form follows function, as the architects say. With words and pictures, you can do just about anything.

I enjoy the drawing more than the writing, so I try to think of ideas that will allow me to develop the visual side of the strip as fully as possible.

Letting your mind play is the best way to solve problems.

Well, remember what you said, because in a day or two, I'll have a witty and blistering retort! You'll be devastated THEN

I don't enjoy lettering very much, but that's the way I write and that belongs in the strip because the strip is a reflection of me.

If you do the job badly enough, sometimes you don't get asked to do it again.
