Pretty clear, if occasionally redundant. It would probably be best to note which interviews precisely the quotations were coming from, though -- otherwise it reads sort of weirdly.

Also, hello!

Although his production has understandably slowed somewhat in recent weeks because of the birth of his first child, Onstad still produces an amazing output of Achewood-related material. In addition to writing a new strip every weekday,

I stopped there as it was too fanciful a tale to be told.

I thought it was good. Hell of a lot better than the Brown article, that's for sure. But then I again I am friends with the author and also I was quoted in it. So I'm 10 kinds of biased here. But I would not allow myself to be quoted in a low quality article, no sir.

You're welcome. Really though, not sure how I could have slipped one in there.

I'm confused, I'm pretty sure a couple of the Onstad quotes were from other interviews so was he actually interviewed for this article or not?

No, they just wrote a story about Achewood and then lifted Onstad quotes from other interviews (probably without permission from the publications, although who knows).

They claim Onstad provided the images, but again, it's hard to say.  Is this linked from Achewood.com?

I talked to the author. He emailed Onstad several questions. For some of those questions, Onstad just told him to quote other interviews because that's what he would have said anyways. The author also got permission for the images. Onstad said he would link it, which I imagine will occur tomorrow.

And now you know...the rest of the story.

Hmm... What does this mean?  Does it mean that your purpose is to provide pleasure?  Or does it mean that you are to be pleased?  Please clarify.

I was telling my friend about Achewood, and he said that he seemed to remember reading it in the Stranger, a Seattle alternative weekly.  I thought that he was mistaken.

But maybe not.  Am I the only one that didn't know it is actually syndicated?  Anybody know what papers it is in?

Actually, it means that I can't type worth a shit. But I would argue that the two meanings above are not necessarily mutually exclusive.
