This is my second attempt at a comic -first attempt here. I wasn’t sure how it’d turn out, but I’m fond of my alien investors, Cedric and Anna. They were christened immediately by my daughter. I wasn’t given a choice...
So as far as motivation:
I woke up Thursday morning and discovered I was announced as a judge for @corpsvalues ’s cartoon-off contest. I figured I’d best do a comic to support the contest in spirit. For anyone reading this who might be interested but hesitant, this contest is newbie-friendly. As someone who has never considered doing comics and was 110% focused on writing, I have so much fun doing these projects. As silly as they are, they’re emotionally rewarding after a long difficult week at work. I highly recommend people to give it a go. You’ll be able to tell yourself: “I tried something new, thanks Steemit! I hope I trend with this comical masterpiece!!”
Which brings me to the inspiration source.
I woke up this morning and tried again to leave a comment on @nonameslefttouse ‘s post — I’ve tried 3 times this week, but was overwhelmed as always by the content, and scared off by a slaughtered demonic pig. Why can’t the man draw flowers, trees, the birds and the bees?! I joke, go check him out if you're interested in the weird and wonderful.
Anyway, today I read his post: How to Qualify for the Shit Post of the Day Award.
After reading it, this comic came to mind and demanded creation, so I'm dedicating this comic to him. I’m sorry, even in my comic, he didn’t make the front trending page. But I hope I do!!
Prays to Steemit Gods of Trending
Not going to happen? Oh heck, I hope I qualify for the Shit Post of the Day Award at least!
And since this is supposed to be funny for funny’s sake, take this submission too, @comedyopenmic.
My nominees are the motivational @corpsvalues and the inspirational @nonameslefttouse.
Thanks for your patience for getting this far on a rather silly post. Have a beautiful day, and don’t forget to use your witness votes.
Not sure who to vote?
Below are the good-spirited witnesses I value. They have made a difference on my Steemit journey, and that of many others.
