Nothing wrong with being nuts. It keeps one from growing old and stodgy. Besides, too many people mistake being "highly imaginative" for being "out of his/her mind", anyway. Overall, I'd much rather be a little "crazy" and happy, than "normal" and chronically bored/boring. :D
Cute strip, incidentally. Mary looks taller(?), somehow. Did you enact that "time skip" you were considering, or something?
@Tenacious-K: We're all weird. My weird just stands out more. :P
@Dan: Most definitely! As for taller, she is going through a growth spurt. But mostly the effect is from the costume. Or maybe I inadvertently added a little too much height.
But, anyway, no time skip. I'll let you all know if I do that.
Don't really know how much height is TOO much. Both of my brothers went from standing at rather "average" (one of them a rather stockily built average) heights to beanpole-like six-plus footers, both of them in only a year or so.
I'm Brigid, not my birth-name, but the one I chose for Confirmation. It's a Catholic thing. Want to learn more about how I grew up? Check out my semi-autobiographical webcomic, Mary Quite Contrary.
The closest I've come to earning a living as a writer is one summer I worked as a feature columnist for a small-town newspaper. I've been telling and writing stories my whole life, though, and, hey, it's something I enjoy. Whether I manage to make a buck at it isn't that important to me.

I don't see a problem here.
Her sisters are weird.

As your father, I've sometimes wondered just what I have unleashed upon an unsuspecting world.
Of course, the same could be said of me.
It's good to see MQC in production again.
As I get older, I've learned to appreciate "normal" and "boring" as limited, valuable resources. :)
peace,

@Dan: Quite true. Adolescence is a time of unrivaled awkwardness.
@Dad: Hehehehehe.
@Zach: There seems to be a distinct shortage around here. :P
Awesome costume that she's wearing. I must get the name of your tailor :p
@Journo: Ah, if only I could make the costumes I imagine. I'd have a full wardrobe of clothing my sisters would never let me wear in public. XP
You and me both! ;p
