I've seen an uptick in Firefly posting across social platforms -- I get it, I loved the show, too -- but realizing it's effectively "what if The South were the good guys?" absolutely ended that for me. I can't make excuses for that kind of thing.

I posted this to Instagram, but I might as well post here too. My Toronto books are (always) open!! I think sometimes folks think I'm super busy or all booked up, and that's rarely the case! I'm always down to take booking forms, and always posting new flash designs 🥰 Reposts appreciated!

At OMSI tonight for PROMSI! I'm getting a kick out of the pretty clothes folks are wearing. Even the guy in the tuxedo t-shirt is kind of charming. Oh! And there's definitely high-school-dance music playing.

My Greek penmanship is improving, but I'm still not quite pleased with it yet. I've *mostly* broken myself of a lot of my habits when writing in English. Mostly.

Pre-show commissions for Emerald City Comic Con 2025 are now open! $275 for full color and $200 for two color. I'm not taking many commissions at the show this year, so this is the best way to get a custom piece from me!
