Stephan Pastis Writing Quotations

Sticking to my schedule, Ive gotten over seven months ahead, which allowed me to write a Pearls Before Swine movie script for the big screen.

You can write a little and can draw a little, but there's necessarily a limitation on both in a comic strip, since it appears in such a tiny space.

When you can't draw chameleons and you can't draw blenders, it's a bad idea to write strips where chameleons become blenders.

A stand-up comedian faces the audiences and gets their immediate feedback. I hide behind the comic strip, and unless people write to me, I dont know what they think.

The writing is done on the computer, and the drawing is done by hand. I write, write, write, then I hit the illustration.
