Hi y'all, I'm Bo
Lumpkin and I've been
thinkin'.
I reckon it's time I started
writin down some of what I've been
thinkin'. I get busy and get behind on the
drawin' and
tryin' to keep up with the comics and build up my readership and all that and sometimes I just don't get around to
writin' down what I've been
thinkin'.
That brings me to what I've been
thinkin' about. I started out
makin' humorous videos (at least I thought they was funny) then I started a blog and started
writin' what I was
thinkin' about and then I started
illustratin' some of the funnies and they turned into comics. That ended up with me
startin' the Hank The Handy Man comic series as a part of the
Gatorhead series. I have been
havin' fun through all this and lo and behold someone comes along with the word "monetize".
I start
readin' everyone e
lse's comics and all the talented people who do web-comics are
talkin' about
makin' money from all this stuff. After
havin' the
Gatorhead Research Team do some
lookin' into this I find out that some people are actually
makin' a
livin' at it. (I also found out that the ones
makin' money
advertisin' usually have more than the nine followers that I have... and they can actually draw.) Then I find out that they sell printed material (hey... I worked in a
print shop for 4 years and was good at it) and they sell T-shirts (hey... I have a Heat Transfer Press in my workshop, and I used to Screen Print for a Hobby.) What I've been
thinkin' is that I had better be careful. If I ain't real careful I might just wind up
makin' some money and then I wonder if it would be fun anymore?
I'm Bo
Lumpkin and that's what I've been
thinkin'.
