Issue 311 will be late. It’s 11pm and I just finished drawing the comic. I need to wake up early for work, so I can’t stay up late tonight.

If you’re wondering, I work full time for a design/ animation studio in Washington D.C.

Working full time and still getting a comic done is tons of work. The comic is worth waiting for, rl is the priority. Us readers appreciate all you guys do, so no rush. :D

Hi.. You can call me Walin.. long time reader, first time poster….

I will say every day there is no new comic a little piece of me dies inside. :(

It’s thanks to Applegeeks, Ananth’s blog, and various other web comic stimuli (as well as the World of Warcraft forums) that I can make it through my night at work.

If it helps, I never hold it against ya.

When I first found Applegeeks I read all of it, up to that time, in one go. Now I never miss an update.

Gratz on everything in your life, and future luck be to you and yours.

I’ve always been impressed with the speed and quality that you can finish these comics with. The fact that you work full time at a design studio and unravels a big part of that mystery.
No worries on the late comic, everyone knows what it’s like when real life gets ahead of your hobby.

SLEEP GOOOOD! Question though, do you still have that old Pismo powerbook that you had shown in the earlier comics?

It makes me happy to know that someone is paying you to make art; it’s worth the money.
