Actually, I don't know if Steve posts here, Steve has written published short stories and comics. That's wish fulfillment.

I wanted to be a comic artist..as a kid
so I drew my own comics on folded paper..

as a Teen I wanted to draw comics or get into design,,
I worked at a graphic design company and drawing houses blew..deadlines are a bitch..I almost had a comic pin up published, but it would have been in issue 3 and the book was cancelled after issue 2..it was independant, but hey I was also only 16...

Now I wanna be a Comic artist or own my own business..just haven't figured out what yet..
All I know is working in social services sucks...as does insurance and so does working for UPS and Pepsi Cola...although Wal Mart and Bartending were cool...
