There’s just so many of them going around for October! How the heck am I supposed to pick just one? Better question: will I actually manage to finish it this year, or cop out halfway through like last year? Granted, I decided to turn one prompt into three comics, then proceeded to get a full-time… Continue reading Which Challenge?
Conversations with Younger Selves – Willa
CONTEXT: Willa does really care about her family, and I feel like there is some residual guilt from how she treated them as a teenager. Kind of lashing out at her mother deserting the family and her dad/multitude of siblings (remember, she’s number 3 of 6) were caught in the crossfire, especially her sister, Emily,… Continue reading Conversations with Younger Selves – Willa
Good Mood
It might only be strange because I’ve been in such a weird headspace for the past couple of weeks. Work has been extra stressful, my anxiety’s been zooming all over the place, I haven’t been taking care of myself – so to suddenly be in this relatively good mood is very odd. Or it could… Continue reading Good Mood
The First Sign of Autumn
He’s got a point, though. Halloween stuff is already up. The Pumpkin Spice is out in full force. People want Autumn and they want it NOW.
It’s the Humidity

Land of the Lost Technology

I just like having something that does one thing and one thing only, and that’s playing music. My… Continue reading Land of the Lost Technology
A Friend of My Mom’s
My mom has a wide social circle, clearly.
That Autumnal Feeling
I’ve been getting so many Autumnal/Halloween drawings recommended to me on Instagram. And not like from last Autumn – from people who are ready for Autumn NOW. Now, I am all for welcoming Autumn in with open arms. But it’s really hard to get into the vibe when I walk out the door and it’s… Continue reading That Autumnal Feeling
Sweat and Stuffed Animals
I swear I do change my sheets. Seriously, I do. But I’m very much a sleep sweater. And it just so happens that during Summer, things get real sweaty real quick. My stuffed animals will be staging a riot at some point.
Conversations with Younger Selves – Oona
Context: Oona is completely blind in her left eye, leaving it looking completely clouded. Used to wear an eyepatch when she was younger out of self-consciousness, but as you can see, she ditched it later. Also, unless you are a mushroom, Oona ain’t interested. At all. I have such a soft spot for Oona. I… Continue reading Conversations with Younger Selves – Oona
