When you get the thing going, don't burn yourself out with a breakneck update schedual.

What would it be about (whatever it is, go with your strengths)

A bunch of one-shot gags? It'd better be as good as VG Cats, Garfield, or something you'd see in the newspaper. Even then, they sometimes follow some sort of arc. I don't often see comics like that lasting for a long time. Another thing you can do to make it live is to improve your English and be sure you have good art skills. :P

Seriously, not too bad of a drawing. Hardly a stick figure.

First rule of advice: Don't ever listen to RJ's advice when it comes to comics because she is a big failure at them.  :<
