The Daily Doodles

Hello everyone!

First off, business time:  Recommend Me for the Secret Comics Directory!  I wasn’t listed in it for the entirety of last week and it was the worst week in my life.  My parents died, my siblings got eated by a buffalo, and I stubbed my toe and my toe is ouchie.  THE ONLY THING THAT CAN MAKE MY TOE FEEL BETTER IS IF YOU RECOMMEND ME.

It is also honourable in my culture to Like Me on Facebook.  It brings deep shame to me and my ancestors if you do not!! 

I’ve been making a concerted effort to follow different writing blogs here on Tumblr, so that I can get to know the community better.  There’s a lot of great stuff out there, and I’ve been having a good time reading it all.

It’s caused a slight bump in my readers, which brings the standard curiosity and questions about The Daily Doodles! 

If you really wanna know more and just ain’t making polite small talk, I would READ HERE.  It’s about me, why I started the Daily Doodles, and even has a picture of me being stunningly handsome.

Feel free to write in and ask anything your heart and soul desires, or even if ya just wanna say “heylo”.  I am a very pleasant boy.

My love for everyone who reads and writes in can’t be expressed adequately in words.  All of you should travel to Los Angeles, sleep on my bed (I’ll take the couch during your stay), and I’ll make you a nice dinner and give you a backrub.

Coming up: a Classique Doodle just for fun, and then a new one a lil’ later on!

Thank you for everything!  Especially… you.

mabelma asked: Tag, you're it!

Here are the rules:

Each tagged person must post ten things about themselves. You have to choose and tag ten people. Go to their blogs and tell them you tagged them. No tagbacks!

I ain’t gonna tag anyone else, but I will play and post 10 things about myself!

10. Did you know you can recommend me here?—

http://www.tumblr.com/directory/recommend/comics/thedailydoodles

(and thank you to everyone who already did it without me even asking!  That really means a lot, and I wish Tumblr let you see who all did that so I can make sure everyone gets an equal-but-different kiss on the nose)

9. FUN FACT!  You can also LIKE ME on FACEBOOK!  And then you get to hope I use it beyond obvious ego wankery.

8. Ok, a real fact: I have 1 older brother, and two younger sisters.  My brother is a much better artist than I but he’s a nerd and doesn’t post any comics despite me telling him to do so.  The older of the younger sisters is a lawyer and the youngest is an architect and new mommy!

7. My sisters have Tumblrs, and here they is: workdateknit.tumblr.com, and YAYnosleep.tumblr.com.  They are both funny and silly gooses.  “Workdateknit” is about my sister’s attempts to find a good job, knitting, and a boytoy to make babies with.  “YAYnosleep” is about being a new mommy and various adventures, and the site is supposed to have a nice drawing by me of my sister holding a baby, blueprints, and a laptop BUT GUESS WHAT I HAVEN’T DONE IT YET EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!

6. You can read about me here, and see a pic and even me dancing a jig.  If you don’t feel like clicking the link, here’s a summary: I am boring.

5. I self deprecate to get compliments, and I’m so ugly seeeeee:

4. Almost none of the love/relationship related Doodles are about me personally, BUT every single Robot and Ghost one are actually directly taken from my real life.

3. My friends I’ve made via Tumblr have quickly grown into some of my bestest friends.  But I didn’t even have friends till late in college, so that isn’t that much of an achievement.

2.  I get nice messages all the time, and here’re my 3 most asked questions:
What is my name?  David Michael Chandler (DMC)
What do you do/where do you live?  I am a broke writer (give me money plz) and live in Los Angeles, California. 
How old are you?  I’m just a boy, but in a year’s time I’ll be a man.

1. 99% of my readers are currently in the Philippines.  MABUHAY!

AND A BONUS TRIVIA FACT:  I love you.

Write me anytime, I’ll answer anything… me no care.

New Doodle coming in a bit!

Hey Everyone!

As has become semi-traditional (aka when I feel like it/remember to do it), the passing of another week means my shameless reminders… PLUS some special THANK YOUS to awesome readers!

First off, if you’d like to see The Daily Doodles listed in the Comics Directory (making all your dreams come true, bring past loves ones back to life, yada yada etc etc) then all ya gotta ding dong do is CLICK HERE:

http://www.tumblr.com/directory/recommend/comics/thedailydoodles

It’s just that easy!

Since that is so easy, I feel I have to give you another tedious task to roll your eyes at… LIKE THE DAILY DOODLES (and therefore me, David Michael Chandler) ON FACEBOOK.

NOW… the BEST THING TO COME FROM DOING THE DOODLES, EVERRRRRR.

The lovely and talented Erillebe from the aptly named erillebe.tumblr.com baked me the most scrumptious, delicious, softest oatmeal raisin cookies a boy could ever wish for.  I’m not just being nice, they are seriously the best cookies in the world.  She even sells them for awesome prices on her Etsy, so head on over there and buy everything she’s ever made in the history of the galaxy.

http://www.etsy.com/shop/Erillebe

Why did she make me these amazing cookies?  All because she asked me to draw a lion so I made this cute Doodle for her.  I definitely won this exchange!

SO, the standard has now been established… if you want me to put something specific in a Doodle or create a story around something, you must give me things I want for free.  HUZZAH!

Love you all, way more than is appropriate,

THERE.

I gave YOU a compliment, now you should give ME one.  In the form of a recommendation to the super secret COMICS DIRECTORY.  Click here—

And we’ll be even!

What’s that?  You still think you owe me more?  Look, I don’t mind, I think we’re good… honestly.  Hmm?  You still feel awful about it and wish there was a way to show me how much you love and respect me as a man and father figure?  Well… okay.  Just go here—

http://www.facebook.com/TheDailyDoodles

And become a fan of THE DAILY DOODLES!  I’ll be posting exclusive content that you won’t be able to see ANYWHERE ELSE IN THE WORLD, such as nip slip pics of myself and me saying it’s hot outside.  DO YOU DARE TO MISS A MOMENT?

Here’s a quick example— MY INSPIRATION

Does it get any better?  You’ll want something horrible to happen to you and your family just so you’re not TOO happy all the time!

New Doodle coming up in an hour :-) smiley face
