Heads up, GoComics fans! Molebashed creator Wes Molebash has an exciting speaking event coming up on February 2! Read on to hear from Wes himself:

Hey, everybody! I'm Wes Molebash, creator of the family comic strip Molebashed, which you can read right here on GoComics!

Like a lot of cartoonists, I fell in love with comics and cartoons at a very early age. I read every Calvin and Hobbes collection, I studied the art of film animation and I learned everything I could about Walt Disney. When I was in fourth grade, I learned how to draw my own comic strips, a craft that I've been striving to perfect over the past 26 years. While the art of drawing comics has been fun and challenging, I've found that the business of comics is a much more difficult beast to tame. I'm constantly trying to figure out the best way to distribute and monetize my comic feature in a world where newspapers are becoming less relevant and the Internet is continuously being clogged with junk. I don't have it all figured out, but I do have some strong opinions.

On Tuesday, Feb. 2, I'll be speaking to the Chillicothe Art League at The Pump House Art Gallery in Chillicothe, Ohio. The evening begins at 7 p.m. and should conclude around 8:30. I'll be speaking about how I got my start in comics as well as a few of the "strong opinions" I've formed over the past 10 years of being a published cartoonist. There will also be time for a little Q&A. This event is absolutely free and open to the public. If you're in the area, I'd love to see you there!
