Well this is it, here she begins. Both the strip, her characters, the name, the site, EVERYTHING came out of no-where. I was amazed and shocked, but definitely excited. I had my fear, of course, that it wouldn’t last. I do have a tendency to start something nifty and never finish it. But this really picked up, everyone loved it, so I kept going on it. Definitely something I enjoy doing as much as I do hearing people laugh about it to this day!
As for “where did she begin?”, well of that I am not completely sure. I do know it’s seed was planted on my Spring Break of 2002. I was with my boyfriend (now ex boyfriend) in California. There were a number of events on that trip that could have inspired such a spontaneous creation. Shall I list some? Sure, why not. Perhaps it was because we were on the biggest plane ever, and it nearly fell into “the bay”. Perhaps it was my ER visit from hell (6 hours, all because I had strep). Perhaps it was one of the most beautiful city parks ever, complete with authentic Japanese Tea Garden. Perhaps it was the scariest new-age broads, at the dumpiest hole in the wall chinese restaurant, talking about “vibrating at the level of Christ”. Perhaps it was all of those, perhaps none. I like to believe, that like primal chaotic soup, they all played a role in her generation. Not by perhaps creating the strip directly, but by summoning the Muse that sat on my head until the strip was designed and birthed by being posted to the net on March 7th, 2002. Yet, regardless of how it came about during that Spring Break, Oh My Gods! was indeed born. A frantic outcry against all that was simple, beautiful, and sane. Or something like that.

Deepest apologies for the vacation
Welcome back everyone! I see many faces I remember and tons more new to me! Welcome back veterans and glad to have you newbies!
My deepest apologies for the strip’s long vacation. To not get into much detail, thankfully my feet are back underneath me again and I’m hopefully in a place where I can create the strip on a regular basis again. Currently there is a (huge) void in the strip (from August 4th to November 3rd) – I will try to refill this with content, but I do not want to promise what I am unsure I can deliver. If I do, you’ll be the first to know!

Birth of a Legendary Comic
You'd think it would be aniclimatic a beginning for a fantastic, world-wide acclaimed comic strip...yet it just seems so right.
Blessed Be...to all.

So this is what happens when demented people play with powerful toys.
Agreed
No other beginning would work so well... It's the birth of Oh My Gods, after all!
Yea

Man...
...I've read through the first couple years of this beastie so many times, not quite getting through, having to do something else, not being able to stand jumping in in the middle, and starting over.
Groovy comic, though, Shivian. Mega groovy.
Yerf, and all that good rot. XD
