I think fast, and I talk even faster. I worry a lot, but I dream a lot more. I am constantly writing down words, songs and poems that I like in my journal, which I keep for my drawing class. I don't smile very often, so when I do, it's usually genuine. I have a hard time getting motivated, so when I do, it's usually for something about which I care very much.

"I celebrate myself, and sing myself,

And what I assume you shall assume,

For every atom belonging to me as good belongs to you."

--from "Song of Myself" by Walt Whitman

"Sometimes my life is white, like a child's note without words, but I don't care,

Because you always start with white, and then go on from there."

--from "My Mother's Ponytail" by Taylor Mali

"He says keep changing,

you just get more like who you really are.

He says get stuck, accept it, repeat yourself,

as long as it's interesting."

--from "Hokusai Says" by Robert Keyes

A word about my comics: I got the inspiration and the format from A Softer World, a wonderful online comic you can read for free at www.asofterworld.com. I make my comics with my own images and my own words, but the format and the idea still belongs to the people at A Softer World.

Enjoy, and I hope to see you around Flickr!
