THIRTEEN YEARS of daily comics!

Today marks thirteen years of my doing a daily comic strip on the Web -- and almost one, full year since I left my day job to fulfill my lifelong goal of being a full-time professional cartoonist.

I couldn't be more thrilled than I am today. It's been an amazing year.

And I couldn't have done it without you. It may not seem like much, but every time you visit my site, you help contribute to advertising revenue that helps keep my family afloat. I've come to really rely on that advertising revenue over the past year, and I want you to know -- I really appreciate that you come here for a few minutes every day. Your support means the world to me.

So, thank you.

I've got some exciting things planned for this year. Stick around. Thirteen is going to be a very lucky number.

If you're interested, a couple years ago, I wrote a seven-part series about my personal history in webcomics. It starts here.
