New Looking forward in a similar way.
It might not surprise you to learn that there is a webcomic of only middling graphic quality, but the artist is now managing to live off it after only four years. She even documents [link|http://devilspanties.keenspot.com/FAQ.html|just how she did it] (scroll down about a third of the way).

Now I realize that your cartooning is in a wholly different league in both style and content to [link|http://devilspanties.keenspot.com/|The Devil's Panties], but perhaps you could find Jennie's journey encouraging, nonetheless.

Is it enough to breathe
Somebody rip my heart out
And leave me here to bleed
 
Is it enough to die
Somebody save my life
I'd rather be Anything but Ordinary
Please

New And that is holding you back, why? :-)
I had an interesting encouragement last night.

About 2 weeks ago, my niece wanted me to do some drawing with her. This caught me quite by surprise because she'd *never* seen me draw, but I did anyway. She drew a line down the middle of a page in her sketch book and we drew independantly on each half of the page. I got inspired by what I drew and a few days later bought some coloured pencils and a small sketch book of my own. I draw on the train.

So, last night, I was sketching (or trying to) and found I had an audience of 4 or 5 11-yro boys in awe at my relatively poor artistry. :-)

You're better at it than you think.

Wade.
