“Life In Bits”: My 35 Minimalistic Comics About The Everyday Life That Surrounds Us
Comics as a medium to express thoughts have always fascinated me. They are comparable to poetry in my mind. Comic strips convey something in a limited amount of space.
These funny comics called "Life in Bits" do not deal with a specific theme like office or home. It is about life around you, casual. The things we say, the way we adapt to new technologies, conventions. If you compare it to a different time, geography, species then it tickles your brain and brings a different perspective to light.
That is the goal of life in bits.

I started drawing webcomics called "Life in Bits" to express the world I observe in a constrained way. Depicting ironies in everyday life via open-ended conversations is what I am going for. The minimalistic cartoon drawings help to focus on the crux of the relatable comics.
Drawing comics is my hobby. As an introvert, I am an inherent observer of the world and its situations.
I like to write and I love to doodle. After reading the book "Making comics", I always wanted to use the medium to express myself. I love observing everyday life and seeing the sometimes absurd, sometimes funny situations humans get into. "Life in bits" was born out of those observations.
Our mouths have grown lazier over the years, natural selection is coming for us.
I have dabbled in more doodling. We had a sketch and coffee club at work where we met and drew and colored every week. It was a low-stakes, no-pressure club, which helped foster creativity.
People do seem to enjoy my comics and I see them mostly reacting via emojis. Although some of the illustrations do get a lot of comments.
there's a difference between rudely interrupting someone and expressing your opinion...
'Fake it 'till you make it' is the motto in my (professional) choir.
Comics help me communicate a different perspective on a given situation. I would love for people to have a good laugh or ponder on how a particular situation looks to an observer who has no stake in the conversation.

Writer: let me reuse the same script about college love and bad guys from 1991.
Exactly. People only show you what they want you to see! Don't compare your unedited life footage with someone else's highlight reel!!
Social media can be useful too, you know. I follow my gym on Instagram so that I can see the schedule and which classes are going on and everything.
The sight of the spoils before the victory spoils the precocious winner.
The misfits are a patchwork minority, not a group of people you try to fit in with, but the group who accepts everyone!
Don't you dare actually call me on my phone if it's not an emergency.
Bedtime is for regretting this one dumb thing you said 20 years ago to people you don't even talk to anymore
Kind of off topic, but this reminded me of one of my high school teachers who shared a story about a group of teenagers who made a website warning everyone about dihydrogen monoxide as a joke, and because no one in the city councel knew that dihydrogen monoxide was actually water, they banned it. Not for long though. Here is the website if you wanted to check it out. http://www.dhmo.org/facts.html

Pursue things you want to do. Isn't that called being a stalker?

Love those! Serious life messages through humour, the best way to tell them.
Hey! My name is Madeleine, and I need some help. I'm wondering if any of my fellow pandas have some spare wooden stakes, or a lake I could use to see if these time traveling witches float. Because SOMEBODY HERE is a witch! And I need to burn them all. If you would like to partake in the witch burning, feel free to visit me at Salem, MA on May 13, 2022. For those of you wondering, it's a Friday. That's all, and witches, please recognize that we are coming. And you will be burned.
That escalated fast. Also, do you weigh the same as a duck?
