Results from second day of the fund drive
Another big thanks to everyone that donated yesterday. Typically each ensuing day of the drive the donations drop, but yesterday the drop wasn’t as big as I expected. I’ve also updated the “check” to reflect yesterday’s giving. The equivalent compensation is now $2.45/hr (I over-reported yesterday’s as $1.45 but it should have been $1.33). Here [...]

First day fund drive results
Yesterday I kicked off the annual donation drive with the goal to raising the equivalent of a minimum wage compensation ($7.25/hr). At the end of the yesterday I tallied it up, divided by the estimated number of hours per year and came up with $1.45/hour. Which isn’t bad as that is approximately 20% of the [...]

About the 2011 Donation Drive
I skipped the donation drive last year. I spent quite a lot of time reflecting if the blog was the best use of my time. Quite honestly for several weeks I considered walking away – even going as far as researching how to sell the blog and writing a draft announcing that it was going [...]

The Future of The Daily Cartoonist
I’ve dropped hints here and there that major changes were afoot here at The Daily Cartoonist. I want to take this opportunity to communicate what changes are coming and why. I created the blog five years ago as a means of better understanding where comics were heading – more specifically syndicated comic strips and editorial [...]

Back in the day, Phil Donahue was the king of day-time talk shows. If I remember right his show, and competing shows, were topical and dealt with mostly social issues. I’m not sure which show first decided to introduce or change their format to “freak,” but for several years day-time talk shows all raced to [...]

The return of the Cartoonist’s Cartoonists
Back in the late 2007, I began a feature called, “The Cartoonist’s Cartoonists” – a tribute feature where a notable cartoonist is invited to share with The Daily Cartoonist readers the cartoonists (or artists) that they feel have had an impact on their work or whose work they admire. Think of it as a celebrity [...]
