== Career == === Early works === Andrew Hussie first began posting webcomics under the alias "S_O" on the website ''Team Special Olympics'', which would go on to run from August 25, 2003, until 2008. The site would host comics, art tutorials, and articles maintained by Hussie.

Hussie began posting ''Jailbreak'' in 2006. This was posted on a discussion forum and took the appearance of a text-based graphical adventure game.

Hussie produced the multimedia webcomic ''Homestuck'', which started in April 2009 and ended in April 2016.<ref name=":1">{{cite magazine |last=Rigney |first=Ryan |date=September 6, 2012 |title=What the Heck Is Homestuck, And How'd It Get $750K on Kickstarter? |url=https://www.wired.com/2012/09/homestuck-kickstarter/ |url-access=subscription |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20250223040715/https://www.wired.com/2012/09/homestuck-kickstarter/ |archive-date=February 23, 2025 |access-date=June 24, 2021 |magazine=Wired |language=en-US |issn=1059-1028}}</ref><ref name="WaPo-Cavna" /> It tells the story of a group of four kids who play a computer game called ''Sburb'' and inadvertently cause the end of the world. ''Homestuck'' included images, text, Flash animations, and interactive elements.<ref name=":1" /><ref name=":2" /> ''Homestuck'', like Hussie's previous works, started with reader-submitted commands for the characters to follow, but Hussie moved away from this style because, he said, the fan input method had grown "too unwieldy and made it difficult... to tell a coherent story." While Hussie now controlled the main plot of the story and the characters' actions, he said that he still "visit[ed] fan blogs and forums" to figure out small things to add into ''Homestuck''.<ref name="Faircloth">{{cite news |last1=Faircloth |first1=Kelly |date=October 3, 2012 |title=Stuck on Homestuck: How Andrew Hussie Turned a Tumblr Craze Into a Teenage Empire |language=en |newspaper=The New York Observer |url=http://betabeat.com/2012/10/tumblr-andrew-hussie-homestuck-kickstarter-game-adventure-text-teens-young-adult/ |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20121005192003/http://betabeat.com/2012/10/tumblr-andrew-hussie-homestuck-kickstarter-game-adventure-text-teens-young-adult |archive-date=October 5, 2012 |series=Betabeat}}</ref><ref>{{cite news |last1=Katz |first1=Mara |date=October 19, 2019 |title=When MS Paint ruled the fandom world: An innovative webcomic, 10 years later |url=https://arstechnica.com/gaming/2019/10/fans-as-co-consiprators-how-community-built-reshaped-a-10-year-old-webcomic/ |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20241214201843/https://arstechnica.com/gaming/2019/10/fans-as-co-consiprators-how-community-built-reshaped-a-10-year-old-webcomic/ |archive-date=December 14, 2024 |access-date=February 18, 2021 |work=Ars Technica |publisher=Condé Nast |language=en-US}}</ref>
Initially, Hussie updated ''Homestuck'' regularly, usually about three times a week. However, there were often long gaps between updates, including a pause of over a year starting in 2013, and another long pause starting in 2015.<ref name=":3" /> At one point, Hussie described working on ''Homestuck'' as less like a full-time job and more like an "all-encompassing lifestyle", saying that the time he spends on the work occupied something just short of all of his waking hours.<ref name=":4">{{cite web |last=Funk |first=John |date=October 15, 2012 |title=Land of memes and trolls: The epic and ridiculous self-aware world of Homestuck |url=https://www.polygon.com/2013/1/24/3780850/land-of-memes-and-trolls-the-epic-and-ridiculous-self-aware-world-of |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20250519110553/https://www.polygon.com/2013/1/24/3780850/land-of-memes-and-trolls-the-epic-and-ridiculous-self-aware-world-of |archive-date=May 19, 2025 |access-date=June 25, 2021 |website=Polygon |language=en-US}}</ref>

Practically everything that happened was a serious point of contention—a reason to argue, discuss, to generate pages and pages of heated dissertation on what everything means, and why certain things are good or bad. All of this was supposed to be part of the experience. It was part of the cat-and-mouse game between the author and reader."<ref name="WaPo-Cavna" />
