I heard last night that ‘Slaughterhouse 5′ by the late, great Kurt Vonnegut took 25 years to write. 25 years! It’s not my favorite Vonnegut book but there you have it. Sometimes things take forever to write. Sometimes they take no time at all and they come from almost out of nowhere, like the two cartoons below.
The first one was written in my head from the time it took to settle into a parking space to the time it took to shut off my car. It was like a light switch going off, inspired by a news story on NPR.
It’s not ‘Slaughterhouse 5′ by any means, but it is better than ‘The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo’. OOH BURN!
This other one was inspired by my wife who just started attending cosmetology school.
So there you have it. Two kinda lame comics that took about 7 seconds to write…but do a pretty decent job of capturing the spirit of Uptown Girl.
