What the critics are saying: “Some of the subject matter covered in Folly and Innovation is so heavy that even I, the strongest man in the world, cannot lift it.” -Benjy “Strongarm” McGee

Hey there friendly person,

I’ve been creating F&I for over two years now and in that time I’ve learned a lot about the art of comic creation and writing. I’ve had a lot of fun making making the comics and running the website. I’ve gotten positive feedback from many people who deeply enjoyed reading along twice a week. It has been a fantastic ride so far.

But, comic creation is a pretty lengthy process that eats up a lot of my time and energy. That’s time and energy that I don’t have for other creative pursuits. I think I’d like to explore some other outlets and methods of creation so I’m going to take a break from making the comic.

I’m not really sure what will come out of this. I might want to draw another strip, I might just start focusing solely on art, I may try and get into podcasting or video creation, I may even write a book…I really don’t know. I’m still trying to figure out what will come next, but I’m excited to find out. And for those of you who have supported my work so far and are interested to see what’s next, you can be sure that I’ll post more info here on the site (you can use the RSS if you’re into that sort of thing) and though twitter and facebook.

This is a decision that’s hard for me to make and I’d like to reiterate how incredibly grateful I feel to have had so much support along the way.

Thank you all,

Tom

    I hope you eventually find the time to continue Folly and Innovation. It’s really good, and on a more personal note it has helped me get through at least a couple of pretty bad periods of depression. For now, thank you for having made the strip in the first place and for leaving up the archives, and good luck in your further endeavors.

    Thanks, JET73L! I’m so glad you enjoyed the comic. I’m especially glad if it brightened up an otherwise dark/depressing time. That’s really the main reason I made the comic, after all, to make people happier.
