You have often seen her depicted in my comics. She came with me to San Diego in 2010. I hope this video loads. She cracked me up. Remember, she has a PhD in Inter-Religious Studies and heads the Masters Program at St. Mary-of-the-Woods College. Studied at Oxford. She’s also a former nun and currently a Sisters of Providence Associate.
The video starts out as Ginia goes out into the Comic Con lobby dressed in her nightgown & swag-bag accessories . . . Dammit! The video will not load. So for now, this page from You'll Never Know, where she & Mom and I are having a conversation will have to suffice. She's on the upper left corner, her color is green. I'm blue, Mom's orange.
Hi Ms. Tyler, I've recently amassed a almost complete run of Weirdo and loved your stories in them....I bought vols. 1 & 2 of "You'll Never Know"...but today my copy of "Late Bloomer arrived, I had a flick thru' and it looks absolutely wonderful but I was deeply affected by the dedication...I'm not a father (tho' I have been a caregiver at several different points in my life) but really my potential and hope was crushed and destroyed by a 11-year plus drug problem...I always wanted to do something with art/comics, but it's only in the past five years of recovery that I feel that whatever ability and work ethic I had has returned....at 35!!! I seem to be taking producing my comics more seriously every day, even at my worst I always drew but a drug habit is a full-time job! anyway! Thank you for the wonderful dedication and it probably goes without saying: "THANK YOU for the wonderful comics!" I probably have about 20 absolute favourite cartoonists and, yep, you're most certainly one of 'em! So from one late bloomer to the mother of all (cartoonist) late bloomers--cheers (tho' I hear Baudoin was in his mid-late 30's before he started cartooning and one of the old Hearst cartoonists who's name escapes me was a lae bloomer, too....)! Thank you for the gift of hope, Ms. Tyler, I hope life is sweet for you!
