Who are Hope & Harry?

Home-hopenharry

Hope and Harry is a semi-autobiographical comic about my family. Hope is a lot like me, except probably better, kinder, and more patient. Harry is a lot like my husband, except not quite as funny or good looking. Hope and Harry have two daughters and a cat just like my husband and I do, and many of the things that happen to them are based loosely on things that actually happen to our kids, their friends, our family friends or more often than I would like to admit, just made up by our family over dinner.

Hope and Harry is a comic that really celebrates the lives of families and the funny and strange things that happen to them. It’s all about busy schedules, unpredictable pets, unexpected catastrophes and the world of children’s imagination. I hope you will stop by for a coffee and a cookie and be ready to listen to Claire and Piper tell you all about their latest adventure.

Its So Meta

I told this idea for this comic to my Piper and she actually laughed out loud.  I'm pretty certain that means she thought it was funny not stupid.  Although there have been instances where my attempts at humour are both.

... and yes I am teaching a Making Comics class in the fall at the University of Calgary Continuing Education, if I can get four more students to sign up that is,...  so why not tell your friends?  The link is here: http://conted.ucalgary.ca/search/publicCourseSearchDetails.do?method=load&courseId=28435344

This was a fun comic to draw, and that's what I'm in it for.  I'm not making money off this comic through ads or anything like that.  the only money I get is from my Patreon page, where my supporters help me buy the essential items I need to continue being creative. So if it's not fun I'm not getting much else out of it to be honest - certainly not fame and glory.  My tens of readers are awesome (if a little quiet) and I appreciate every one of you (even the quiet ones).
