<p style="">Welcome to my Patreon, featuring my weekly cartoon and personal commentary about politics, life, and cartooning. I started a subscription service via Mailchimp several years ago to compensate for the ongoing decline of print newspapers. Since then, I have indeed lost several newspaper clients, but can happily report that subscribers have softened the blow. Slow but steady growth in subscription numbers more or less kept pace with the gradual disappearance of paying publications.  Meanwhile, I hear from more readers than ever how much political comics are appreciated. I’m determined to keep the cartoon going one way or another, but subscriptions will need to play a major role. To that end, I hope you’ll consider joining the club. Subscribers receive the cartoon via email each week along with extended commentary, personal news, classic cartoons, and occasional process sketches. You’ll also stay in the loop about events, interviews, and any side projects. I’ve truly enjoyed engaging with subscribers over the past few years, and am continually amazed by the fascinating people who’ve signed up. Maybe there is hope for the world — or at least political cartooning! <strong>Some background about me:</strong> In 2023, I received the Berryman Award for editorial cartooning from the National Press Foundation. In 2017, I was a Pulitzer Finalist . I’ve also been honored to receive the <a href="http://www.herbblockfoundation.org/herblock-prize-winner/1072" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Herblock Prize</a>, an award endowed by the legendary Washington Post cartoonist Herb Block; a Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Award; a National Cartoonists Society Reuben Award for Editorial Cartoons; an Aronson “Cartooning With a Conscience” Journalism Award from Hunter College in NYC, and an Inkpot Award for career achievement in comic arts from the San Diego Comic-Con International. <img src="https://i2.wp.com/jensorensen.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/11/patriot-nationalist600.png?fit=600%2C609" title=""><img src="https://i2.wp.com/jensorensen.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/gentrification.png?fit=600%2C616" title=""></p>
