UPDATE: After several days of consideration, it felt like the icons in my first version (below) were a little confusing. What do you think? Does this read a little more clearly now? Melanie and Thor are grumpy, they see each other, say hello, and in passing their outlooks change.![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj94t8HAMrSPpcMIORioiiy7xoxG1FTN7Agta2R_qloiLdUClwRDWJNxfv5MkrAJzUx8tcGg91v6f9rEiUvLSpuseyOjGDS5qNcqLJMnTf7_U-XDkvW8cn53GO6Om7DhmAY3BjC/s400/HP1c.jpg)
We'll see where this goes, but I'd like to pitch a comic strip to our weekly paper, The Methow Valley News.
Heart's Pass, starring a pair of local wolverines, will be a chance to observe and comment on both the local scene and the world at large. It will also be a deadline driven reason for me to "practice" telling stories in a comic strip format. How in the world do cartoonists keep up with those daily strips. Amazing!
