    6. Has there been anything about this story as you have been developing it that has surprised you, a part of the story that developed in a way you didn’t expect?
    7. You transitioned over from the Discover side and that has given you the chance to re-release the episodes for a whole new audience are there any aspects or parts of the strips you have taken the chance to change? Maybe something you realized would work better in a different way?
    8. Let’s talk about pacing, do you find that to be a challenge?
    9. I found the strip to be extremely readable and the characters very compelling. Is that something you consciously worked on or do you feel it is just a by product of the world and narrative you’ve created?
