Anonymous asked: Just curious, I know Don lives of his parents, can you as the author make a living of your comics?

Ha! I wish. I don’t make that much off of my comics. I get a small cut when people order my books off Amazon.com, and I earn a bit more from selling books at conventions. It still isn’t much when you consider the cost of tabling at something like APE (Alternative Press Expo), which is the only convention I’ve tabled at so far (FYI, I’ll be tabling from August 10-11 for the Stumptown Zine Symposium in Portland, OR).

I mostly earn money by doing freelance writing gigs about the Linux operating system.

Anonymous asked: Do you think you got anything out of rehab?

Don says: “Well, I’m still stuck in here, so we’ll see what happens over the next several posts. So far, their total abstinence policies are really bugging me. I came in for alcohol and pills, so why did they confiscate my weed? It’s not fair! And they’ll only give me 5mg of Ambien before bed, so I can’t trip out on it—major bummer.

Still, I have to admit that even though being here is cramping my lifestyle, my body and brain seem to be doing much better after a few days of sobriety. If this continues, I might just try to stay sober after I get out. Don’t expect me to become a 12-stepper, though!”

Dear Fans

Dear fans,

Once again, the time has come for Don Depresso to take a quick hiatus from life. He will be back soon, so don’t disappear on me!

Love,

Ruji C.
