Sometimes when I can’t think of an idea or I feel uninspired I go to a small website called QuotesOnComics.com by Paulo Patrício. Inspired by the site QuotesOnDesign.com (which is also good), it’s a great source for ideas and concepts shared by a collection of comic artists and writers, as well as anyone who’s mentioned the influence of comics in their lives.

My particular favourite quotation comes from Drawn & Quarterly’s own Seth, whom is referenced to have said the following:

“A cartoonist has a very isolated job. You sit in a room with yourself everyday, all day. You have to come to some sort of truce with yourself. It is difficult to do, and easy to become depressed or melancholic.”
