Bored Panda reached out to Kim to learn more about her and her comics. Kim shared how comics came into her life: “I have always been a fan of comics. When I was a kid, my mom had to take me to work with her. Her boss had Gary Larsen's 'The Far Side' daily calendar on her desk. She noticed I liked them and let me keep the previous day's entry. I started a mini collection and it's grown from there.”

In our interview, Kim shared when she first started her comics and what inspired her to create them.

“I started the comic in 2018 as my New Year's resolution. I dabbled in a lot of things but never stuck to a hobby. I always enjoyed doodling so I decided to make a daily comic and post it on social media to keep myself accountable. I don't give myself any restrictions on what I make. If I think it's funny or I need to draw something out in terms of catharsis, I just go with it. A lot of my comics are based around sex positivity for women and normalizing it,” shared Kim.

It takes time to create comics, therefore, we were curious to know how often Kim would create new comics. She shared: “I've gone from 7 new comics a week (admittedly that was rough) to about 4-5 a week. I also have started animating my comics and sharing those as well.”

In regards to whether her characters are inspired by real life, Kim wrote: “Oh, for sure. Since I have taken some inspiration from real-life situations, I have several friends and family who make cameos. The two biggest would be my main character, Dot, who is definitely an extension of myself, and Hubs, who is based off my husband. I also have Gary. He's a literal version of my inner monologue, being a sentient talking butt plug and all.”

We also asked Kim if the art in her life came through comics or if she had done any other art-related projects before.

“I am definitely inspired by the art I see. I love parody and commenting on classical art by turning it into a comic. I think it's a fun challenge. They don't always work, but when they do, it's a personal 'homerun' kind of feel,” explained Kim.

Kim also added whether she studied to become the artist she is today: “Yes and no. I have my bachelor's in graphic design but the skills I learned through my degree have only really been helpful in terms of using Adobe Illustrator/Photoshop. Before switching to the comic full-time I worked as an office manager for a plumbing company.”

And lastly, Kim added: “A big thing that I love about my comic has been growing such an awesome audience and connecting to people all over the world. I know I am lucky to have this as my literal job.”
