Well, welcome to my comic. I guess I need to give you guys a little information about myself. My name is Skippy, and yes this comic is about me...sort of. Back in the summer of 2001 I was surfing around the internet and I came upon Real life, a webcomic by Greg Dean. After reading through the entire archives, I thought to myself "Hey, I can do this, and it looks like fun." So I sat down and came up with Drawing A Blank. I maintainted a pretty good update schedual with that comic, keeping it up and running for over two years. But once I got into my senior year of high school I just kind of stopped caring about it. I only had a fan-base of around 30 people, and most of those people I knew personally, so I figured nobody would miss it.

After about six months of not touching the comic, my webhosting (Keenspace) decided to purge my data from the web. Also around this time, I had a head failure on my Hard Drive, which deleted all of the back-up data for my comic. Long story short, Drawing a Blank is gone, forever. Which is sort of a bummer because I spent quite some time working on that strip. Oh well, moving on to bigger and better things: No | Dice.

So, what'sthis whole strip about? Really....whatever I can come up with. If it's funny, I'm gonna draw a comic about it. Chances are that there will be a pretty regular cast of characters, but that doesn't mean that I dont have room for other one-shot characters for one-shot comics. Again, if it's funny....I'm making a comic about it.

The secondary reason for this website's existance is to host my digital protfolio. I'm currently an AVT (Art and Visual Technology) Major at George Mason University. And seeing as how I'm a year and a half from graduation, I figured it'd be nice to have a place on the web where I can dump my work.

Anyways, if you're reading this, then concider yourself special because you are one of the first people whom I hope to call "fans" later. If you have any questions, comments, or suggestions, please send them on over.
