Introducing Polly Tries, a new comic by Seana and cartoonist Emily Evans. Polly is a 30 something woman who is trying hard to keep it all together. She is intelligent, thoughtful and hard-working, but she struggles to get and stay organized.
We hope you will enjoy getting to know Polly, and maybe identifying with her experiences. Please let us know what you think!
Can you relate to having an inbox like Polly’s?
I love it and will tell you I feel like that every morning when I look at my email inbox!!
Oh thanks, Janine. We are having a fun time putting it together. A lot of Polly is from personal experience:)
Amen to the pile of paper on my desk which I try to keep clear.
I love the idea of a cartoon-Poly”s expression captures the feeling perfectly.
I hear you, Dianne. We’ve all stared at a pile like that, right?
Wonderful! You go girls!!
Why thank you, Dace. We aim to put a smile on every face:)
LOL, that looks my email inbox after a weekend away from it. Cool idea to put it as a cartoon, and I have that same stubborn curl! 🙂
So glad you liked it, Jill. We are having a lot of fun putting it together. There is actually a word for that curl in a cartoon.. but I can’t remember it:)
I love this, and I totally get the sentiment. I am constantly mocked by my inbox, and my workload. I’m hanging this in my office!
I feel this way all the time too, Angela. So glad it could bring a smile to your face today… can’t get rid of the inbox, but at least we can laugh at it. Have a great week!
Love it and this! What a great idea! The best of luck with Polly! 🙂
Thanks so much, Crystal. We hope to bring many smiles in future months! If nothing else, we can enjoy knowing that we are all sharing similar struggles:)
This is great! I hope we’re going to see many more comics from you?
That’s the plan, Tamara. I’m working with Emily to bring a whole series of Polly’s experiences, hopefully to make people smile and realize we are all in the same boat:)
What a cute comic!!!! 🙂
Thanks, Susannah. We hope it will bring smiles all around:)
I love the Polly cartoon!!!! More please xo
Thanks Katherine:) We are working on it!!
Love the cartoon. Can’t wait for more!!!
Thanks Vickie! We can’t wait to bring you more:)
So true so many times in our lives!
We feel the same way, Thea. Seems to be a universal challenge… and that is always good for a smile:)
I love it! I feel like that every day!!
So do we, Michelle! Hopefully we’ll be able to bring lots more “YES!” moments like this in the future:)
How wonderful Seana, look forward to seeing more of these! My email inboxes, overdue workplace training lists, and social media messages make me feel like this!
Glad you liked it, Jessica. We hope to bring more smiles that everyone can relate to:)
So fun – can’t wait to see more!
Love this! I shared this one with my small business clients. Thanks for making this.

Thanks for sharing, Sabrina. I hope to help people see that so many people share the same struggles:)
Even thoug I try to keep mine down, it’s never ending. At least I’ve never been in email jail like one of my husband’s coworkers – so many emails that it stopped receiving any!

I think I live with a couple of people who may be at serious risk of email jail. I can’t stand seeing the number in the red circle!!
My kids are terrible about checking their email. Many of their activities communicate through mail and we have to remind them.
Also do you mind if I share some of your comics on my FB page w a link of course.

I’ve noticed that some activities are shifting to using more texting and FB messaging and less emailing for that very reason! And YES, of course, share away:) Hope your readers enjoy!
Nothing is more powerful than poking fun at ourselves, and creating a “visual” humor is even better! Seeing funny cartoons and captions on my news feed always puts a smile on my face so I can’t wait to see more! Keep ’em coming.
So glad you liked it, Nancy. I feel the same way… love to laugh. Sometimes, it gets me through the day:)
