The economy is getting better, but it’s still tough out there.  Actually, that’s only what I’ve heard–I sit at my desk, pitching cartoons and trying to get illustration jobs. I rarely have to go in person and “perform” for work.  My cartoons do a lot of the performing, and that’s just fine with me.

I have started doing public speaking, however, and that kind of performing I really enjoy. Because I have my cartoons with me, projected behind me as my support system. And it’s absolutely wonderful to hear people laugh. It’s addictive. It’s something you do not hear in the quiet of your studio.

If you would like to see me “perform,”  to the right you can view two videos I did recently. And in fact today, I am shooting a video trailer for my book.  Wish me luck.
