Scott Meyer (author)
Scott Meyer is an American author, comedian, and artist, known for his webcomic ''Basic Instructions'' and his comic fantasy series ''Magic 2.0''.
==Basic Instructions==
Meyer initially began posting ''Basic Instructions'' on his LiveJournal account in 2003 and in 2006, began posting the strips on its own website, basicinstructions.net. Strips are posted three times a week, Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, and each comic contains four panels in a grid, and each panel typically contains instructions as well as the standard comic drawings. The instructions are based on a "how to" topic seemingly taken from everyday life, such as "How to Lie for Recreational Purposes" or "How to Win at Monopoly Without Losing a Friend", and then deals with the subject in a frequently perverse or unexpected manner. The characters in the comic are Scott Meyer himself and representations of the people he interacts with on a daily basis, such as his wife, his boss, and his best friend. The author has stated in interviews that many of the characters are based on real people. The comic has been available on LiveJournal since 2003 and on the author's Web site since 2006.
Four books have been published, the first two by Dark Horse Comics, all containing compilations of strips with some new content, forewords written by the characters and commentary on the comics themselves. A page-a-day calendar featuring strips from the comic were printed from 2011 to 2014.
In August 2008 ''Dilbert'' creator Scott Adams covered ''Basic Instructions'' on his blog, where he discussed his interactions with Meyer and advice he had given him on possible syndication.
