I really don't understand why he is SO STUCK on the one comic instead of branching out -- have a few different ideas to send to publishers, and keep producing Peter & Company online to show that yes, he can do a strip on a regular basis. I believe that's what DC Simpson did, and now she's actually being published by a syndicate (after years and years of trying, and I think just online, but I don't read physical newspapers anymore...she also has a well developed online fandom of her own, because of those years of online publishing).
Of course, I have the exact opposite problem: I have dozens of story ideas but can't keep myself rolling on just one, and though I'm proud of them, if anyone said "Change this and we'll publish you and give you lots of money" I probably would, whereas this guy won't allow any critique at all apparently. I'm comfortable being a sellout if it comes to it!
