My mom keeps telling me that everything’s going to work out. But here I am, so close to graduating from college and…I have no prospects for the future. If my aunt can’t get me a job at the passport office here, I have no idea what I’ll do. Probably work two to three jobs with little or no benefits that I hate just to make ends meet. Thinking about the possibility of doing that for the rest of my life isn’t all that uplifting. It makes me wonder if I was ever supposed to make it this far.

How I did it: I'd been wanting to start a webcomic for a few years, but the gag-a-day strips didn't quite work out for me. I was finally inspired by an idea for a story that I really felt good about putting in webcomic format. It took me until I'd worked out the plot beginning to end (with a few gaps in the middle to be filled at a later date, I'll admit) before I was actually able to start. Read how I did it…
How I did it: I can't say I was actually trying, to be perfectly honest. I'm extremely anti-social and only really come out of my shell on the internet. One of the members of a webcomic forum I'd been a part of for a while noticed that we lived in the same city. After talking for a few days, he asked me out to lunch and I said yes despite myself.

How I did it: My university offers a lot of great traveling opportunities that are all relatively cheap. It was all a matter of finally picking up one of those fliers and emailing the prof in charge. Read how I did it…
