How One Cartoonist's Mind Works by T. McCracken   Buzz Word #4, Significant other Ah, a term I understand . . . not that I have a significant other. In Waldport, Oregon a single woman over forty has a better chance of being abducted by space aliens than of finding a compatible man. Oh well. What was that bit of graffiti I saw in college? "A woman without a man is like a fish without a bicycle." That must be a cliché by now. But what about a man without his bike? I switched the surf board to a computer and sold it to a tech magazine. Ironically, the tech magazine couldn't handle multi-colors, so I also came up with a black and white template. Since many of my clients are trade journals, I often do dozens of variations of the same idea, tweaking it just a bit, and essentially reselling the same cartoon over and over. I never sell the same idea to competing magazines, though! That is a cartooning no no. 1 / 2 / 3 / 4 / 5 / 6 / 7 / 8 / 9 / 10 / 11 / 12 / 13 / 14 / 15 / 16 / 17 / 18 / 19 / 20 / 21 / 22 <<<Back . . . . .
