So happy to have found your podcast. I am having the best midlife crisis ever: a comic creating crisis.

Do you talk to anyone who came to creating comics later in their life. I need some inspiration.

Thanks from a full time Junior High teacher who is working to get his stories out there.

I'm glad you found it too. Welcome!

The midlife-creative-crisis is real. It's want pushed me to start writing novels.

They all began their comic journey as adults.

I have been a Junior High teacher for many years now. I encourage my students to find and follow their passions early given that I was too reluctant and scared to follow mine until late.

I have always kept working in my spare time… but during the school year, spare time as a teacher amounts to nothing. This summer I am a stay at home dad but I am working to ensure that I have focused creative time.

I have a story in me and I need to get it out.

Right on. Plenty of great talks with writers to collect nuggets.
