Amazing, isn’t it. It’s been 2 years since the very first Therapy Tales cartoon hit your interwebs.
During that time we’ve seen a lot of changes. Not only has my drawing style improved considerably since then:
compared to now:
… but Therapy Tales has also been published in psychotherapy journals both on and offline, developed a whole community of lovely, intelligent, good-taste-exhibiting humans on Facepage and been thrown hither and thither on the tides of Twitter, even getting retweeted from time to time. And now with Guest bloggers every Wednesday, with Shrinkys and Shakeys lined up into August, it’s a right little community event we have going on here.
But it has to be said that your humble cartoonist just draws random things and puts them on the internet. It is you lovely readers that keep the word spreading, not to mention helping to keep me in ink, Moleskines, books and laptops, and putting up with my erratic publishing schedule. I would have given up a long time ago without your encouragement and kind words.
So, mutual back-patting, kleenex dabbed to a teary eye, and back to the books and ink to come up with more cartoons. Who knows what will happen next. Do stay tuned, it would be lovely to have you with me.

/ September 18, 2012Extremely belated, I know. But you make me giggle like I never remembered I could, after some bad times tried to take over my life and thoughts, and hang on, and on. I come back here to your blog every few months and feel… human, rejuvenated. More connected to my own therapy. Thank you!!
WG
/ September 29, 2012Hi Faith,
This is great to hear! Certainly, the drawing and the blog and the lovely people I’ve met along the way have made the whole TT creating and sharing process like a new kind of “therapy” in itself!
I’m glad you’ve found it fun and helpful!
Hoping to be back to posting again later in the year, once I’ve finished the book.
