He has this whole list of questions that you have to ask art students.
I think there's this quote, there's this thing called Questions to a Young Art Student by David Smith. Eventually, my doctor’s like, "You have repetitive stress injury." I try to make drawing comics every day important, which is why I have a sling on my arm now because I draw all the time. If it's something that you want to do, you make time for it and you spend the time that you have really wisely. I don't sleep a lot during those times, but it's what I want to do. I work in five before I go to work, I go home and teach, I'll work at lunch, I'll come home, I'll hang out with my family for a couple of hours and then I'll work again. People call me the king of time management because I'm up at five sometimes and I'm working on stuff when I have deadlines. Some of the things that I do is I binge watch stuff in between projects. Once you decide you're going to do this, you have to make time for it and it has to be an important part of what you do. Joel: Well, when you decide that you're going to do something like this, whether it's draw comics, write stories, play hockey, that's the thing that you. Practical question, how do you do all this and get your writing down? I'm glad to be here.ĭanielle: You are an illustrator, you are a writer of award-winning graphic novels and comics, you are the chair of comic arts at the New Hampshire Institute of Arts and you are the CEO, chairman, regional manager, black correspondent, and janitor, as you say, of Strange Fruit Comics.
