Need to send a message because someone hurt your feelings, disappointed you or otherwise were just a giant turd? Never fear, Aspa is here. She'll relay that message FOR you, so you don’t have to! She’s just pretty great like that 💅 Read the comic she’s from over at TheGoldenTroupe.com! :)

Yeaaaaah, Aspa’s back story didn’t *quite* work out like this, but it did END UP like this, so…potato potato🥔 If you wanna see the REAL back story behind Aspa’s anger management issues, I do have that on her tier, under a special SLIPSTREAM post. You can Join the Troupe thru the link on my profile!

Rioxia is here to tell you EXACTLY what she thinks of you!!! And yall who know Rox aren’t surprised at all 🥰 I’m cooking up something I’m pretty excited about! If you’re a Troupe Member already, you’re automatically included! Nab your membership thru the link on my profile, if ya wanna 😉

If you want something else other than what's on offer, comment or send an email and we can discuss! Thanks <3

I was working full time at Chewy, making a living off of just my art for the first time in 20 years, but my contract didn't get renewed :( I'm taking commissions, if anyone is interested: charreed.com/pages/pets No takers yet :(

Somehow everyone in the Troupe last month won in a 3 way even split… except Qui. But don’t worry. He’s not a sore loser and takes the loss with all the grace you’d expect from a hound of the royal courts 😅 If you want Qui to win, maybe just this once, then cast your vote by signing up at Troupe HQ!

Anyone else relate out there? Where my “trying their dammdest, but still getting damned” girlies at??? 😅 Follow if this you too lol

Can you believe RIOXIA won last week's Golden Troupianship? AGAIN??? Not surprised, but there was tough competition. Aspa's only a lil bit mad... Want someone else to win? Visit Troupe HQ on my profile and sign up- it really helps get Volume 2 going!

If you’re new here, here’s the guide: Aspa: horse Morgh: eagle Rioxia: cheetah Qui: saluki (dog) If you wanna see which one of these characters is most like you, take the quiz in my profile!

WATCH THIS SPACE! Get caught up with Volume 1: - You can read for free over on IG @TheGoldenTroupe (tho it will become archived) - Pick up the digital version or physical book over on my profile page If you read it for free and can, your support to buy a copy DIRECTLY helps the making of Vol 2! ♥️

This isn’t about you. It’s about me. 8 months condensed into 1 minute. I ask for help plenty. Even when I scream, no one hears. I have to fucking save myself. Always. Maybe we should all start by saving ourselves. Then we might actually have room enough for someone else.

Are you a Qui? Get him and the Troupe as free wallpapers! Just go to my profile and click the link.

Aspa when she heard the results of last week’s bracket. (I’m too scared to tell her that Rox is winning this week too 😅😅😅) Check out more over at Troupe Headquarters, which you can find out about on my profile. Hope you join our tiny but mighty Troupe over there! ♥️

Who snagged the Golden Troupianship this week? RIOXIA!!! Troupe members rally to see who can gain the most new fans. Even switching tiers counts! It's all friendly competition, but the others might need some love too ♥️ Check the HQ link in my bio!

This might look weird, but... VOLUME 2 HAS STARTED! I'm SO EXCITED to share weekly comic pages at Troupe Headquarters again!!! 🤩 Sundays are for sneakie peekies before the comic goes live. I'm building a 4-8 week buffer, so join the Troupe if you can't wait! See you there! <3

Ever felt like life's just been one long, lonely solo mission? Yup. Same. Leaning on community is my new hyperfocus. The Golden Troupe aims to make the WWW fun again. Imagine a game where Troupe members "win" monthly. Who's in? If this seems like something you're interested in, let's f'in go!

Qui... surveyor of worlds. Masterful visionary. But also, tired of everyone's bullsht. If you can relate, you might be a Qui. Check and see which Troupe member you are here:  https://f.mtr.cool/knqawscgck

I had to jump on this trend because it's just... Aspa. Which one is the tiger again?!?? 🦄 Starting something new. If you're constantly battling enemies (time, responsibilities, co-workers...) you might be an Aspa. Check out more at CharReed.com for more!

Been really enjoying the direction Jazza’s been taking with his channel the past year or so and while I appreciated him being more personable and real, so sad to hear about this update 😔 gofund.me/17bf375fd

At 41, I wish my life amounted to anything. I wish I had a loving relationship, a beautiful home, a thriving career... but I don’t have any of those things. I thought I did, but not anymore. I’m real messed up right now over being such a monumental failure despite trying so incredibly hard not to be

I was pretty pleased with my Kickstarter video since at first I was pretty grumpy about having to do it. And I got a "Project We Love" badge so I guess it was worth it!!! The Everyday Witch's Familiars Oracle Coloring Book live at www.kickstarter.com/projects/alb...

I didn’t assume this was going to be easy, but I didn’t expect to break down crying 1 min into packing everything to leave. This space meant so much to me in the very short time I had it. It represented the beginning of my art career- instead of just my art hobby that always just cost me money 😔

I’m back with my babies for this week. It’s breaking my heart to have to leave again so soon 💔

The Everyday Witch's Familiars Oracle Coloring Book is now LIVE on Kickstarter!!!!! www.kickstarter.com/projects/alb... AAHHH!!!!! I would be so grateful for boosts of this post!

God, I wish so many people cared about my life and/or art that my posting about it felt like a chore that I didn’t even want to do 🙃

Next week is going to be so incredibly hard. I know ultimately it will be ok, but goodbyes are the worst. I’m really hoping I can say see you later instead, but I don’t know which it will be. None of us do, not really.

I wish one single thing in my life could go right.
