Wednesday, Jan. 9, 2002 Hello, It's nice to 'meet' you. My grandmother has had me reading the cartoons of our local newspaper since I was old enough to sound out words. Even at 34, married with 2, 1 in high school, I still stop to read the funnies. I have book-marked all of my favorites and make it a point to read them everyday. There are 25 of them and as geeky as it seems they are even ranked. Every now and then, I go out looking for new ones to read. I add a couple to my list and give them a couple of weeks to amuse me. Most of them dissappoint. But yours was quick to get into. It is well written, with identifyiable characters. It is witty, relevant and timely without being preachy.  I'm not looking for the meaning of life in my cartoons, I'm just looking to be entertained. And you cleverly provide that day in and day out. It took me a while to realize your main character was gay, but I had my suspicions since she acts like my best friend who is also gay. She's 2000 miles away in Montana and reading your cartoon is like having her here. I told her about your strip, but she doesn't have an internet connection yet. Anyways, you are very talented and have even entered my top 10 which means you get read everyday, no matter how busy I get. In case you care about the company you're in, 10 Jane's World, 9 Dilbert, 8 Dennis the Menace, 7 Blondie, 6 Mutts, 5 Calvin and Hobbs, 4 Zits, 3 Luanne, 2 Peanuts, 1 For Better or For Worse. I know it's not the Nobel Prize, but I write as a hobby and I know what it means to me when someone sincerely enjoys my work. To me, a thoughtful comment about my words is as big as an Oscar. I sincerely enjoy your work, Miss Braddock. One of Your Newest Fans, Joe Tuesday, Jan. 8, 2002 for christmas, i bought your book from plane9. love your work! looking forward to the next one. - foster Monday, Jan. 7, 2002 cool strip. i just read about it in the out 100 issue. i like janes outlook, look forward to seeing more of her and her friends. good luck. Carla Sunday, Jan. 6, 2002 dear paige,i was reading one of my issues of"OUT" magazine(dec.issue)when i came across your little article about you.it read that you put out this comic called"JANE'S WORLD" on comics.com...it was nice to see that someone actually had a comic that deals with the day to day crazy stuff we deal with.so i went to the web sight and looked it up, before long i found myself laughing out loud.something that i almost thought i knew how to do, so i just wanted to say thank you!!!!and that i look forward to reading them...keep up the good work!!!!! - Tina Wednesday, Jan. 2, 2002 Hey, Paige - thanks for using my idea! (the Wanna-Be) I showed the comic to my partner and she was even more excited than I was. Too cool! Have a happy New Year, Kirsten & Mary Monday, Dec. 31, 2001 Just want to say, great cartoon, and also that was an great tribute to Mr. Graue.. He was an icon, i grew up reading his alley oops strips.. one of the reasons i started cartooning.. Again great work and great tribute (which i read from comics.com) keep the grand work.. Chad Saturday, Dec. 29, 2001 Hi! I LOVE your strip. I read it everyday while I should be working. My girlfriend says I only like it 'cause Chelle reminds me of my ex but I have other reasons. Are there books out I might find? I'd love to read the whole thing beginning to present. Is there any chance of getting Jane and Chelles relatioship and break up on the archive page?  Janes Word Rocks, Manda Friday, Dec. 28, 2001 I really love your comic. The Contra Costa Times does not carry it but I will send them an email about you - very funny stuff. Steve Wednesday, Dec. 26, 2001 Dear Ms. Paige, I have 2 words for your art: bril lient! One would not think a comic strip would have a big impact on someone as myself...but I relate to your Jane on the human level, and her situations and can always use the "tear-jerking" laugh! Thanks for providing that!  - Donna Monday, Dec. 24, 2001 Ethan should make Jane that spaghetti that he's been promising her while he is still gainfully unemployed. This recipe is more like Rick's speed. - Liz
