Hey, no probs! It’s really a great interview. Watterson’s mom sounds like a really nice lady.

Cool as this is, it’s sort of sucks to see people trying to track down Watterson after he’s taken such care to keep his privacy intact. I’ve lived in Chagrin Falls for ten years and I still have no idea where he lives (and there was a big hullabaloo over him signing books for our local store that made him stop.)

Well, to be clear, I didn’t go expressly to hunt him down. I happened to be in Chagrin for a client meeting and brought my digital recorder along. It was only supposed to be a short segment for our show, and I only thought I would get locals talking about him and saying they don’t know much about him. I took a chance and walked to the town hall. It was the woman who worked at the front desk who called her on the phone.

When I talked to his mother, I made it clear to her I didn’t want her to do anything she felt uncomfortable with. I didn’t want to pressure her to do an interview. She told me that I was the only one who had actually asked to talk to her. I guess most people just show up at the front door unannounced, so I think she appreciated that.

But she agreed to talk to me and invited me into her home (I even offered to do the interview from the front yard and not enter her house). She was extremely accomodating and I feel incredibly honored to be given the opportunity, as both a fan and an illustrator.

Thanks again for linking me up, Patricia. If you get a chance, check out my monster art at my blog. :)

It’s fascinating that some of the most brilliant minds are so introverted and socially defective.

Why not give in and give a couple interviews, and get it out of the way – satiate the public’s voracious appetite – and then disappear.

Wasn’t Gary Larson missing for a while too?

Len, I don’t see any problem with what you did and I’m sorry if it sounded like I did. :)
It’s more of a blanket statement to people who come around looking for him every once in a while. On the other hand, if you managed to navigate the warzone that is downtown Chagrin Falls right now, I congratulate you.

Thanks. None taken. :) I just wanted to make sure that people didn’t think I did anything untoward Bill Watterson or his family. I have a great deal of respect for him and I wanted to respect his wishes while doing a tribute to him.

This was not unlike listening to compressed-audio diarrhea. Next you should interview Gary Larson’s grandma… or berkeley breathed’s aunt… I am embarassed that I listened to as much of your interview as I did. You stole 10 seconds of my life I will never get back. ever.

so what’s up with this mr. waterson..i’ve known his comics for some time now but this is the first time i hear about him being so shy/antisocial or not wanting to be bothered..

i guess it’s just one of those prices we have to pay for the wonders in illustration and comics..

any heads up maybe..?

:)

I was led to this site when I googled “how to contact Bill Watterson.” I enjoyed the interview with his mom. Thanks for posting this! In his Tenth Anniversary Edition, Bill Watterson said that it would be great if a female wrote a comic strip with Susie Derkins as the protagonist. I’ve mulled over this idea for a few years, and last winter I played around with it in writing. I do not draw comic strips, but I am a writer. I know that I cannot contact Bill Watterson directly, but I wonder- was Bill Watterson serious when he commented that he wanted someone to write a strip about Susie? If so, would he want to read the potential strip? If anyone can give me any insight into these questions, please let me know.

I am not sure, if anybody would get this message.. but I was wanting to have some contact address of Bill Watterson, to send something I wrote about his famous creations. I understand and appreciate his privacy ..so if this comment gets to the right person would be really thankful. thanks

VCRs Used as Hidden Digital Video Recorders…

With all of the new fangled gadgets on the market, we can get so caught up in trying to figure them out that it is enough to make a person throw up their hands in total, abject frustration. Regardless if the gadget really is hard to figure out or not, …

I’m another avid Calvin and Hobbes fan along with, it seems, half the world, all of whom are trying to contact him for some personal reason or another. I introduced my girlfriend who has depersonalisation to Calvin and Hobbes, and anyone who has any knowledge of DP will understand that it’s not a nice place to be. I can’t begin to explain how positive Calvin and Hobbes has been for her. It doesn’t seem right that I can’t contact him via letter or email to explain what his cartoons have done. It’s a real shame…

hey, yeah… i'm kind of let down, i wanted to ask him if he wanted to make a movie… like about calvin growing up, and finding hobbes in his house and then his imagination reviving… but i don't think it's happening…

Was Watterson depressed?His comics have said some things that have made me feel it for him.Wish I could talk to him.
