On part 2 of this week's episode, we interview cartoonist Sara Lautman. We ask Sara about the path she took to being a cartoonist, her early submissions to the New Yorker and her ability to come up with really great cartoons with long captions. She turns the tables on us and asks about how we got into submitting to the caption contests (Paul, Vin and Nicole Chrolavicius. Beth was unable to do the interview portion of the podcast).
Sara also talks about her current project, A graphic novel titled "Jason". She is currently publishing chapters of it at:
