His & Hers Debuts August 6, 2007

After pursuing newspaper syndication for my comic strip, His & Hers, and coming up empty, I accepted an offer from UClick – Universal Press Syndicate’s Internet arm – to syndicate the strip through GoComics.

His & Hers starts Monday August 6, and will run each Monday, Wednesday and Friday. I’m pleased that H&H has found a home at GoComics. Uclick seems to be aggressively developing new content, and the people I’ve worked with have been wonderful. I’ll post the URL when the strip launches. I hope you'll check it out!

I wish H&H had been picked up for print, but newspaper syndication is such a tough market right now. It’s incredibly hard to get a comic strip in the papers and even harder to keep it there.

We’ll see how it goes. At the very least, this should be an interesting ride.

Thanks for the encouraging words, Rog! I just checked out your blog. I love it! I may have to stop by periodically to borrow a cup of mulch.

Scott, congratulations! I found out about your breakthrough on MySpace just before it was announced on this blog. That's really fantastic; I'm looking forward to this strip very much.
