Have a Think. — The Nib
“Longstreet Farm” gets a shout-out at The Nib newsletter as one of six comics published in 2015 worth a second look.
I drew a bunch of comics for The Nib when they were a going concern. It was such a great outlet for me, I really miss it. I am pretty sure if they hadn’t had to downsize, I would have at this point in time written and drawn at least three or four more original strips than I have at the current moment. I tell myself, it makes sense that I haven’t completed a new comic for a little while, I had to run the Kickstarter, and since then I’ve had to put the new book together, but boy, having the Nib around really was a kick in the pants to get something made. There were a lot of people reading my work, they paid me a little money, they helped me work out what ideas were viable. It was really great, but always felt a little too good to be true. I hope Matt and the other great editors I worked with there do figure out a way to bring a version of The Nib back to life. I’m perilously close to finishing up work on my book, and I imagine will be expecting to start drawing proper comics again soon.
