I'm glad Petey happened, and I'll be looking forward to the next book you do (though I don't think you should count out your Sketches of Fishtown books. Those are pretty brilliant).Christine Larsenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02848258791480277275noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2204981766381503212.post-68262568145123852542011-09-24T11:20:20.010-07:002011-09-24T11:20:20.010-07:00James - that is a very touching and heartwarming s...James - that is a very touching and heartwarming story.

Wasn't drawing for myself much at all. After seeing what you accomplished with Petey, I made up my mind to take comics a little more seriously. It took a couple years and a LOT of rejection letters but I eventually landed a strip (Ellington) with United Media. Still have my copy of Petey, by the way! And I still think it's great!JPDJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16504369148273580222noreply@blogger.com
