“Every morning you have two choices: continue to sleep with your dreams or wake up & chase them.”

I need y'all to stop treating independent creators like Amazon. We're trying our best here, but we're just simply not going to have the same level of convenience or webstore capabilities as giant stores. We're doing what we can on our own with the few tools we can afford.

ME: The great thing about writing fantasy is that you can make stuff up! ALSO ME: *spends twenty minutes reading about isopod pseudo-lungs to make sure it’s accurate*

"man, i want to read something perfectly attuned to my tastes, but i wouldn't know where to look for them. i know, i'll write them myself!" my other projects that haven't been touched in weeks: 😭

Something I don't see creatives talk about so much is the crushing letdown and depression that can follow finishing up a huge project that has consumed you. Like you are suddenly cut adrift with no purpose. Got to reach for a lifeboat. That next thing...

You're not going to be able to draw everything perfectly in your comic, ur gonna have weird looking cars or buildings, or hands- And i want you to know that's fine Readers spend seconds per panel- as long as things are clear narratively, keep going! Dont get stuck on making every panel a masterpiece

*whispers into the void* "your art will be declared degenerate, so you might as well lean into it."

Word of the day….

drawing something cute for myself and remembering i can do anything i want and thats what life is all about

MLK quote for today: “The great majority of Americans are suspended between these opposing attitudes. They are uneasy with injustice but unwilling yet to pay a significant price to eradicate it.”

finally! friend. two more to go.

my new year's resolutions: * de-scatter my brain * survive the incoming shit show * 🐇

are my old posts still getting enough traction to negate follower loss from random silence? also, merry christmas. my heart goes out to those who got less presents than me.

lotta inconveniences happening recently. here's our gold medal winner of the week: getting sidetracked on other sketches.

it's a new (-ish) day! have an old painting of mine.

i don't really like being loud about politics but i still support you good people out there.

slowly... but it's just about ready.

where'd my social ambition go? with my mood? bah, it seems to be coming back rn.

it'll get better. and worse. and better. and worse. and better still.

The big disadvantage of having art not solely as a hobby is that you never can stop thinking about work. It's always present in thoughts, subconsciously or not. Such an exhausting way of making a living but also a very privileged one.

Just my 2 cents. But my goal is to ignore the trolls. Give them zero attention. Block them if they annoy me. I think the worst thing we can do on this site is re-create the ad hominem/ personal attacks that occur across comments on Twitter/insta/tiktok/ etc

apparently this social media flow thing isn't consistent with me, oops

doing a group photo for this guy

maybe it's easier to snowball this social media thing. sure!

all of the hope radiating from this platform makes me giddy. gonna do stuff! also yes i've done stuff already but let's do more stuff. it'll be so fun.

Life is short. Write that novel. Paint that painting. Try new recipes. Learn black magic. Go into the forest at night. Summon a demon. Earn that demon's trust. Become best friends with it. Brag to everyone else about your new cool demon best friend. Knit that sweater.

i tend to feel quiet towards the night. i suppose social media is an afternoon thing for me.

I feel like I need to tap the sign cause I keep seeing people trying to "dunk" on hateful peeps on my feed. This ISN'T TWITTER. Please don't make it into it.

BEST thing about this site,, I can hide negative replies and unattach my posts from reposts that are rude,,, I ain’t gonna take no negativity or trolling on my page. You will not build up by tearing others down here.
