*YOU MAY HAVE NOTICED A FEW CHANGES..
..happening to the site. We’re gonna be adding message boards and archives of my various strips. And a bunch of info on many overlooked African-American cartoonists. I’d love to hear feedback and input about these new changes, so email me at keef@kchronicles.com.

*EMAILS OF THE WEEK…

(RE: K Chronicles: Impulse strip)

You wondered in your latest strip about whether the military guys want to curse the President. Well, I can’t speak to that directly, but when I was in the Navy, I was about two feet away from the CNO (Chief of Naval Operations the #1 Admiral in the Navy) and was able to ask a question. Yes, the impulse was DEFINITELY there! ‘Course, we were spending our third month at anchor off of Mogadishu, Somalia, so a court-martial actually seemed like a kinda-sorta good thing, if it would just get me back home…

Naturally, I didn’t act on the impulse, but it was SO there.
Regards,
B.

Keith,

Long time fan of your comic. About 10 years ago I asked my
brother (a psychiatrist) the following question:

“Whenever I’m in a high place I think about jumping, is that normal?”
his reply was
“What else would you think about?”

Best,

Keith;

Caught your latest K Chronicles. The impulse that I’m always surprised
at in myself is whenever I see an empty light socket that I know is
plugged in. I think it’s the idea that you’re _that_close_ to something
that could kill you, guaranteed, and an ounce of effort in the wrong
direction would do it.

Keep up the good work,

Sincerely,
A.

(Re: K Chronicles “One Black Kid” strip)

Keef!

How did you know my life story? Your strip really hit home for me and I’d love to have a print of it to hang in my home. Wish you were digging t-shirts, because I would wear one with that strip on it practically every day. How do I order a print of that strip? Tell me where to send the cash and I’ll get it to you.

Your comics are one of the true joys of the internet. Keep telling and drawing it like it truly is.

From a big Keef fan,

T.

**(You can order a print of the One Black Kid strip or any other K Chronicles or (th)ink strip for $50..email me at keef@kchronicles.com-k.k.)

Peaceful journeys always,
