Bored Panda reached out to Scott again to learn more about his creative process and himself. When discussing the most rewarding aspects of creating comics, he shared, "Sometimes you have a good idea, but it's hard to get it down just right on paper. It's rewarding when you successfully draw what you've envisioned. Similarly, it's great when your drawing turns out better than you originally envisioned."

Scott told us that, for him, one of the challenges of cartooning is being original. "It's frustrating, but not surprising, with so many cartoonists out there, to find someone else has already drawn 'your' idea."

When asked how he measures the success of his cartoons, Scott explained that a successful cartoon is one that he personally enjoys or one that receives a lot of positive feedback. "It always surprises me when people love cartoons I think won't get much of a reaction or, conversely, are neutral on ones I really enjoy, although this happens a lot."
