Daily Comic Journal: March 14, 2017: “Why Have I Been Gone? — Conclusion”
Well, that’s it. It took me seven parts but I felt I needed them all to explain where I am. When I was laid off in January of 2015 I know I felt horrible at that exact moment, but I had know idea that over two years later I’d still be in this state.
And what I said today is true. My funds are practically all gone. I still can’t get interviews anywhere. Nobody wants to see me, nobody wants to talk to me, nobody wants me period.
I can’t believe that my talents, knowledge, abilities and experience have disappeared just like that. But, I guess every recruiter, ever HR person and every company knows better than me.
Top all of this hopelessness off with a truly repulsive, inconsequential, horrible man as our president and a repulsive Republican congress cow-towing to him, well, I really do see nothing but darkness ahead.
But, since all I know is artwork. All I know about is drawing, designing, creating…. I’ll continue to write and draw these comics, but god knows if anyone actually reads them. I’ll keep doing these until the day they take away my house and leave me homeless. I’ll keep doing them, because they’re me.
So tune into tomorrow, and the next day and the next, and continue to read about my demise.
You keep drawing, I’ll keep reading.
Thanks Brian. I don’t think I could ever give up drawing.
