1. A sparrow with attitude – I love him!

   BTW Jessica, I laughed out loud at the ‘making a snowman’ cartoon strip on your website. 🙂

   1. Are you referring to my one page comic ‘Everything I learned about haiku I learned from a snowman?’ It was a fun experiment in a minimalist style. I’d love to do more of those in the future. So many comic ideas. So little time!

2. Jessica, does the little bird have a name?

   1. I just call him “Sparrow”. Do you have a suggestion? How do you says Sparrow in Japanese? I should look it up.

      In my comic series, this little fellow is the sparrow from Issa’s poem:
      “Come play with me, little sparrow, I too am an orphan.” (Kobayashi Issa)

      The Sparrow plays tough, but he just wants to be loved.

      Here’s a link to more sparrow adventures:
