For me, I feel the little “asides” ARE the main story. It’s about a forest that’s in danger of something (we’ve yet to really find out). But would we really care unless we knew some of the little characters that live in the forest? Charles is on a mission to save them. But if we got to the “end,” and they were saved, wouldn’t we ask “Who cares?” unless we actually got to know those that were saved? I’m excited to have the greatness of the forest kept alive: the little plays, the drama between a drunk bird and his mate, the games at the river, and learning to fly with Jeffery (that little punk!), and so on.
Karl: Keep it up, man. I (among dozens of others) appreciate the woodland creatures. I’m thrilled we’re getting a new scene and new characters, too. All part of the plot. I’m a fan for years to come (decades if it takes that long).

I hope the lonely bunny finds someone. Without too many romantic-comedy hijinks.

Hi Guys.
Thanks for the votes of confidence and support! I’m currently on a train back to Montreal and I’m colouring today’s strip, which will be posted in a few hours. Hopefully sooner.
Anyway, I just wanted to address the issue of plot progression. I appreciate the opinions of those who are anxious for more ’story’, and my response to you is that the surrounding digressions are just as much a part of the story as the quest-based plot. I like to flip-flop between them as the mood strikes me, and having just wrapped up a pretty heavy scene as a conclusion to the Townsen storyline, I felt that I needed a bit of a breather in between chapters.
I know it seems like a long time because of the weekly update schedule, but trust me when I say that if I were to be swayed by your plot cravings, the final story, read through from beginning to end, would feel rushed and awkward.
This comic has always been (and always will be) about the little moments. If you’re here solely to find out what happens at the end, then you’re in for a few years of frustration. ;)

I say put off the main story as long as you need to. A lot of this strip’s charm comes from the other stories told here: the Cedar Forest Players, the little bird with a drinking problem, the psychiatrist insect, the bee that digs interpretive dance, etc. These side stories keep this strip rich for me. Telling him to get on with it is like telling him to stop creating funny witty incredibly well drawn strips, and that seems wrong to me.
