None of the cartoons that I ever did are basically, if they're about sex, they're about sex in sort of this, you know, this ironic way, or the way that people actually treat it.

You do have to put in a lot time to get good at anything and than includes cartoons. So I think it's true of art and everything else.

Primitive, naive drawing can also be good drawing but it's hard to pull off. I don't think most submitters realize that.

Cartoons, often, that you do for the New Yorker don't appear for months afterwards, and the record for that is a cartoon that was bought by James Stevenson in 1987 and didn't appear until 2000.

I do find that humor helps in relationships. It certainly helps in my marriage now because I'm a very, very fallible person. And if I wasn't funny I'd be kicked right out the door.

Im pretty adept with computers and Photoshop for my blog, and I found my style with a conversational voice and an image-ready column.

If you have any problems at all, don't hesitate to shut up.
