Folks, you know I work closely with Erin Lindsey, but PLEASE direct all Venus Envy stuff to her, not me? I won't pass messages along or give you insights into her personal life.
There are LOTS more people doing this than just you. I get it in IM and EMail quite a bit. I'd been meaning to do this for a while, actually. Your post just reminded me to do it.
And while it was a simple question, you were still asking me wether she'd abandonned VE again. It not my place to ask her that or speak for her.
Come now - a crossover is generally between two strips and two creators/creative teams. There's no guarantee that either party knows what the other's doing (she says having done one or two in the past for paper comics)!
A crossover is when two comics start featuring characters from each others comics. While THIS is a collaborative project, CS and VE are very much non-collaborative. CS is my baby and VE is hers.
My big problem is that people are asking me about Erin's personal life, her opinions, "Why isn't she replying to my EMails" and the like. Its not my place to answer for her, make assumptions of wy she does stuff, and generally ask personal questions about a very private person. I'm a fellow cartoonist, not her PR department.
I sometimes face this same issue, with people expecting me to be the conduit to Robin Wood. Much like Robin, I am sure that Erin is able to speak on her own behalf. :-D
Every time I walk into a Con, I expect to see you for some reason.
