Hello, Yebobpa. I remember seeing your first post yesterday. I didn’t leave a comment, because I was not in a very good place at all yesterday (today too, but in a different way) and I didn’t want to give you a story of despair without a story of hope. Thought that wouldn’t be fair. Anyway, welcome to the forum.
Thank you. I’m really glad that that comes across.
The two main inspirations that I had for this method of writing a comic are two other webcomics (er, one webcomic and one blog): A webcomic called “A Moment of Peace” and a blog called “Hyperbole and a Half.”
Both of these works are great (or at least, that’s how I remember them); I recommend them highly. Both of them haven’t updated in ages, but what is there is worth reading. In the former, I noticed that the storytelling was good enough that I honestly didn’t care about the quality of the art. And Hyperbole and a Half did the same, and inspired the style a bit, although I know it may not look like it. Allie Brosh’s later illustrations in the blog were actually beautiful. They showed an underlying understanding of art. She really was a great artist, and she drew crudely on purpose. I loved that.
I really REALLY think your quite very good (sorry for my horrendus grammar) at what you do! The color is good but the overall meaning is great. This is the first of your pages that I have seen so I will have to go back and check your other ones out, keep up the amazing work 🙂
Haha, no worries. I do that all the time. My autocorrect is also really inexplicably stupid. It’ll change correctly spelled words into other words that don’t match in the least.

Thank you girly!
Awesome work… Your hard work certainly pays off.
Thanks. It is a much harder project then I thought it would be. Although it’s still fundamentally designed to allow me to be lazy.
It definitely doesn’t look like you were lazy… Not at all.

Thanks, newdanny. I’m really glad that you enjoy it. And don’t worry about your grammar.
This is really good. It makes me think of my maternal grandmother l, who was a wonderful person.
Another error? Wow, I just can’t type today.

Well, I’m glad that I could bring that memory to the surface. I like making people feel things.
