19 – Motivation Reinforced
So that wraps up my first short storyline. Sure it may have lasted for weeks, but when you put it all together it takes just a couple of minutes to read. If you want to read it from the beginning, it starts here. I tried my best to get each strip to work on its own without needing the whole story, and I think I succeeded in every one except for this one. Well, it may work on its own, but it’s funnier if you’ve read the one before at least, I think…
Anywho, I’m shleepy. And my back hurts. Massage anyone? Please?!
I laughed so hard I spit a moist bit of a wheat thin at my monitor.
Love the evil laugh from the chihuahua!
and his wagging tail!! Good job, neighbor!! 😉
Very nice coloring. You’re right about this last one maybe not standing on it’s own. I totally forgot about the chihuahua reference in the previous strip and didn’t really understand the ending here.
Is part of your cartooning or writing style to use so little punctuation? Seems Imy can never put a period on her sentences, or is that part of her personality, to never fully finish a thought?
Leslie: Good! That’s the kind of laugh I like to get 😀
Neighbor: Thanks! Yes he’s very happy he gets to be evil.
me!: Thanks! Yeah I figured it wasn’t going to be a stand alone one. But if that really mattered I would have tried to figure out a way to make it be on it’s own. But I didn’t really think it was that critical.
As for the punctuation, I’m not quite sure what you mean, unless it’s just the periods at the end of the thought bubbles (since that’s the only missing punctuation I could find). And that is only a technical thing. I end up editing what they say so often that those last periods sometimes disappear without me paying attention! I fixed the only one that was missing in this comic. I know there are in other past ones, I’ll get to that eventually.
That must be it. I see this one is fixed. It just seems like it has happened frequently enough that I thought maybe that’s oomething you were going for. Now I feel like a schmuck for insinuating your comic’s messed up all the time! It’s not! Really! I’ll probably look back now and realized it only happened twice. Just ignore me, everything’s fine.
Haha! No worries. I am the WORST proof-reader. I have always been. In school and everything. It’s like something in my head that doesn’t allow me to do it. Every time I try I can’t get myself to focus on it. But I will definitely try harder to see that from now on. And it probably happened more than just twice. I will go back and fix them by the weekend.
