Quote Of The Week
"Just because my deadline isn't through a big syndicate that's paying, it doesn't mean that there's not the exact same amount of pressure. Because in essence, I have, oh gosh, I don't know, 30 to 60,000 different 'syndicates' every day who are waiting for me to put up my work. And if I don't put it up, they're less inclined to support it. So I have to deliver no matter what." -- Chris Onstad
