Note 1

This is the second comic of The Talking CHARACTERS. It was very easy to make and I hope nobody copies me…yet.

So this is what I did: First off, I put this app on my computer that is called typewriter. It makes typewriter sounds when you write on a keyboard. So that gets me really in the mood. Then I just write. It doesn’t take much, and this was written straight through, no editing. Well, maybe some editing – a tiny bit – when I started production: that is, making the actual comic. Here is what I wrote, raw:

Happy New Year! . Yeah. So what? ! Hey, listen! If I have to all the time use exclamation points…you should be using way more periods, my man! . Bend the rules a little. It’s the 1st of January. ! S0.?! . So… New Year’s resolutions don’t officially begin until… ? When? . Until I say. ! And when is that?! . I don’t know yet. ! Then I’m going to use way more different types of expressions than just exclamation point. . Go to it. I guess… … Ok. Everybody is using my ellipses. I’m not going to allow that. I’m very special. ! . ? We know! ? Or do we?

The production of this material did not take a whole long time, either. I am not going to describe how I went about producing the copy into a comic, but I think you would agree by today’s standards, it was very low end on the tech scale. Yet, as you may also surmise, tech was involved.

Why this note? Because this blog is all about the creative process! It is also about letting you see the originality of my work, especially the inception of an idea.
