The Secret Heart (also known as My Story and Story-A-Week) was a short-lived comic strip distributed by the Chicago Tribune /N.Y. News Syndicate. The writer was Jim Lawrence, who worked on three better known comic strips; James Bond, Buck Rogers and Friday Foster. The artist was “Jorge Franch”, who seems to be the noted Spanish comics artist Jordi Franch Cubells.

The Secret Heart stories revolved around a different romantic couple each week . The strip ran week-long “continuities” which ran in black and white on weekdays and concluded in the Sunday colour strip. I think these were the reasons why it didn’t take off – there were no regular characters the readers could follow (unlike, say, The Heart of Juliet Jones), and newspapers tended to prefer comic strips with separate plots for the daily and Sunday strips.
