Where's The Fucking Money, Lebowski?

Over at Pushing Rope last Spring(?), some of us were being recruited to do some work for Creative Loafing. The deal fell apart when they realized we weren't going to work for free.Hahaha, Crazy Writers want to get paid!

I can't remember exactly when it was, but not too long ago somebody ( I think it was Driftglass) posted this video.



While a comic strip may contain considerably fewer words than a typical Op-Ed column, the job of writing a comic strip isn't made easier by the lower word count, so pay the writers.

  1. I guess our Creative Loafing dead deal is officially public. There goes my Loafie.

  2. Of course CL didn't want to pay us, they filed for bankruptcy. Having good writers that people like to read never pays any bills. Nope.

    I like dealing with media entities that are bankrupt, because then you realize why they are.
