I&#8217;ve been making comics for nearly 20 years, but until now I&#8217;ve never seriously tried to get in the habit of making comics all year &#8217;round.

Unfortunately this time around, I&#8217;ve left the snow hasn&#8217;t stopped falling on Michigapolis all summer and fall. Clearly, I still have some time-management issues to work out. Rest assured, I&#8217;ll be back.
