Happy New Year from the Work in Comics project! It’s week 7 and, as of this writing, we have 429 completed responses. That’s pretty good, but I think we can do better! Please consider taking a moment right now and letting your friends and colleagues in comics know about the survey.

Here at the University of Calgary, people are starting to come back from the holiday break, and the class I’m teaching starts up on Thursday. This term, I have to watch how I budget my time between this research project and teaching, and so I thought I’d take a look at how cartoonists derive their living from different work sources that compete for their time.
