I just came from a sales presentation where I was told I had to present at the last minute. So I was “using the force” in a big way; and it paid off. Years of talking about what I do and the rest of it has given me the ability to do it at the drop of a hat no matter who is watching.

And I imagine your friend is the same. If he writes new stuff, which comics dont seem to do a lot I have found, then you can bet the first few times out of the stall it will be sharp, practiced, rehearsed and so on.

Then after that he will start to have fun with it…

I do agree that hard work is needed to stay on top of the game, but I also believe that you need to have fun with life. (As much as possible in fact)

I think you are being a bit harsh there my friend.
