Depending on how you count it, Scandal Sheet! is a month old either today or Wednesday. The comic has been swimming around in my head for <a href="viewtopic.php?t=39145">so many years</a>, it's been very strange actually having it out on the Web where people can see it.
This past month has been both more and less than I thought it would be. I thought drawing the comic would be slow agony based on the last one I did back in college, but it's been pretty easy - once I got myself to sit down and get started. (A big part of that is being able to do the lettering on the computer, it's true.)
I wasn't expecting to have such completely narcissistic pride of ownership. I am absurdly flattered every time someone tells me they like the comic - and that flattered feeling soars to exponentially loftier heights when someone tells <i>someone else</i> that they like the comic and I happen to hear about it. I find myself clicking over to the comic and just... looking at it... a couple of times a day.
I've also been proud of the slow but steady way people have been joining the Scandal Sheet! LiveJournal Community. It was a particularly special moment for me when people whose names I didn't recognize started signing up.
I just wanted to take a moment to thank all of you who've been supporting Scandal Sheet! and passing the URL on to your friends. It means a lot to me.
