LIVESTREAM [OFF]

Phew! I didn't realize how exhausting that would be!Here's the current status of the upcoming wallpaper, following the end of the stream. Unfortunately, my computer is so old that it was struggling to keep up with the demands of both running Photoshop and the stream service, so I had to call it quits as the lag was making any forward progress impossible.However, I'll keep working away at this and have it available as both a wallpaper and a print by the end of the week! It'll look so spiffy. I'm excited to polish it up and co...

STREAMING ON TUESDAY, MAY 8 2018

As y'all know, yesterday was the last day on my crazy job that was sucking all my time and energy away from everything except the barest essentials of my comic work. It was funny - I handed in my Employee Badge and headed down the hall to the elevators, and immediately felt my body begin to wilt. I came home and slept for maybe... 10 hours? I think?Anyway, I want to celebrate the beginnings of this month-ish long break before the start of my next gig, and thank you all so much for your patience both during this hiatus on the website, and th...

i missed posting comic previews!

I was so tired and burned out today that I brought a blanket with me to work to wrap myself in, and it has to be one of the smartest things I've ever done!A lot of stuff in the Epilogue was directly inspired buy some of the more unsavory "helpful critiques" I've received online, which I think just goes to show that no experience is wasted, and you can turn anything into a positive.

STATUS UPDATE

I am very very very very very tired and frustrated, so I'm gonna cheer myself up by telling you about THE SECRET THING I'VE BEEN WORKIN ON:In a shocking twist: BOOK ONE ISN'T ACTUALLY OVER. Yeah, you thought I wasn't makin' comics? There is a 13 page Epilogue I've been working on since the conclusion of Chapter 7, which will start being published at the start of next week!! I've been looking forward to surprising everyone!THIS PAST WEEK:Working on the Epilogue has been made extraordinarily difficult because of the de...

E.ii [DISCARDED DRAFT]

I mentioned that I had started writing/illustrating instructions and recipe lists for some really ridiculous drinks that seemed in character for Lyra to enjoy, but wow, they contained so much alcohol. I didn't feel comfortable with the feeling that I was endorsing that heavy level of drinking, so the answer was changed to something that promoted responsibility and structure to that kind of recreation.Pictured here are an Irish Trash Can (the Red Bull illustration would have been animated with a camera shake to it, to drive home that atmosph...

These last two pages are supposed to act as reminders for all the questions not yet answered, and be a little bit of a preview of what the next part of the story will be about.As per the announcement yesterday, today's page is running a little late, and the main site will be updated when it's done. Until then I've uploaded the Flats for y'all here to tide you over.(The bunny slippers were added by Amy, the flatter, for kicks and giggles. They won't be in the final version of the page.)EDI...
