Andertoons Profiled at Business Owners’ Idea Cafe
Business Owner’s Idea Cafe bills itself as “A Fun Approach to Serious Business,” and I’ve often marketed Andertoons as “Taking Funny Seriously,” so I guess it’s only natural that the two sites got together for this profile of Andertoons.
A few tidbits:
Anything you would have done differently?
I probably should’ve quit my day job sooner. I was surprised how much more art I could get done when I was downsized.
What advice do you have for others?
Figure out how to sell yourself online, and fast. Watch for those big trends (I discovered blogs earlier than most) and hit them hard. And get yourself a decent coffee maker. You’re gonna drink a lot of it; get something that makes it taste good.Favorite Food?
Chocolate chip cookies.

The Back of the Napkin – Chapter One Review
OK, I’m not business book kinda guy, but Dan Roam’s book caught my interest in a few different magazines I like. And after kinda poking fun at it (and Dan commenting so nicely despite that) I figured I really gotta give it a fair read.
That being said, I’m a stay-at-home-dad to two kids under five, plus I’m running Andertoons and trying draw funny pictures on a regular basis.
So I’m gonna take Dan’s approach and review his book visually as I go along. Here’s chapter one:

Hellboy 2 Trailer
OK, I’m no follower of the Hellboy comic, and the first movie was disappointing to say the least, but I loved, loved, LOVED Pan’s Labyrinth, so please let Hellboy 2 be good.

Finish Him!
Mike Lynch has a really fun post over at this blog where he discusses a cartoon class he’s teaching and, aw heck, I’ll let him explain it…
As you may or may not know, I teach cartooning. recently, I’ve been teaching some junior high and high school kids in Milton, NH. Last week, the cartoon class was given five comic strips. The first 3 panels are drawn (see below), but the last one needs to be completed.
In addition to his students, Mike also asked anyone who wanted to to send one in.
Here’s the one I picked to finish:
I won’t give mine away, but I hear Mike’s gonna post all the stuff he’s been getting soon.
How much fun is this?!
