So, I was reading the paper this morning. And one item, in particular, stood out. End of the road for ‘Cul de Sac’.
To quote the article:
After Sunday, Richard Thompson’s acclaimed Universal Uclick comic strip, born in 2004 in the pages of The Washington Post, will be no more. Thompson, 54, is unable to continue the strip because of his Parkinson’s disease, diagnosed four years ago.
“I’ve gotten too unreliable to produce a daily strip,” Thompson said. “I’m thankful for all the newspapers who took a chance on ‘Cul De Sac.’ ”
This is why I can’t stop. This is why I have to go to Bouchercon and the Austin Film Festival. It’s why I’m trying so ridiculously hard.
It’s why I’m blogging when I should be reading that book I need to review.
Here’s the kicker. I remember this post like it was yesterday.
Now, I’m really testing the boundaries of my domain and then some.
And just so you know, this project has contributions!
Thank you! Let’s keep the ball rolling.
Let’s celebrate the contributions with a round of cheerleading courtesy of Nik Nak’s Old Peculiar!
Can you feel the momentum? Ha ha ha …
UPDATE: This is the first time I’ve seen an indie author make this statement. Thank you, C.D. Reimer!
I’m doing my Indiegogo project in order to bypass all the middlemen, including Amazon. Hurray for the Internet!
