Would you break down your typical work week for us? Rough percentages would be cool.
4th panel and your watch-me-draw videos makes it look like you spend about 2~3 hours on a comic:
- 30 min working on the script with Jerry
- 30 min researching characters you plan to parody
- 2 hours drawing
So that's about 9 hours out of 40 -> about 22% of your time.
How do you allocate the other 78%?
I know you do bonus comics and stuff for games. You prepare for PAX and whatnot.... but that hardly seems part of a "typical" week for you.
When nothing unusual happens, how do you spend your work days?

As far as I can tell, Robert is the third pillar that made Penny Arcade possible. You and Jerry have great talent in presenting comics, and posts people want to read, and Robert makes it possible for you to focus on those things.
If you and Jerry were starting over again (young, single, unknown) how would you find a "Robert"?
(I know he originally found you, asking because I know there are lots of creative types out there who desperately need someone like him to cross over from "barely getting by" to "viable business")
