Every time I go to our local library they have a new free thing for people and it’s the best. I love libraries so much and people that don’t love them are my enemies.

Hey all, I am currently looking for some more avenues to gain some coverage on my latest anthology! If you have any directions to suggest or a podcast that needs a guest to talk about cool comic art stuff, let me know!

This is a cool thing that happened. If we make $45 more in the next hour we keep pace for $100 a day bringing us over the finish line! #supportindiearts #indiecomics #indiepublishing #artsky #comicsky

✨📢📢✨ Did you hear? @kickstarter.com named “Mother!” one of the projects they love!!! We are so excited to be noticed! Make sure you check out our project and see what the fuss is about! www.kickstarter.com/projects/pri... #projectwelove #kickstarter #graphicnovel #indiearts #momswhodraw #comicsky

“Mother!” Will be LIVE for funding -this- Wednesday! This anthology celebrates mothers in creative spaces with stories from 5 creators exploring their experience with motherhood in a variety of genres! I am super proud of this work and hope you call can jump into to support us weirdos making stuff!

If you worked for 40 hours a week at $20 an hour but never had to spend any of that money, and it just got put in the bank, it would take you 24,039 years to become a billionaire

At one time I knew 900 film majors and I am so sad everyone grew up to be normal people because I need someone to help me make commercials and I call and they are like “I am an ultrasound tech now”

I don’t understand how everything has gotten so complicated to do. The last time I printed comics it’s was so straight forward. I didn’t even have to talk to a person and now everything is so convoluted I feel insane.

The best (lamest) part of being a comic artist is working for months on something and you can’t post anything about it so it looks like you’re just sitting around

Every job board I have been a part of for the last 10 years now requires you to pay a monthly subscription fee in order for it to actually do you any good and I don’t know why I should work on a dystopian comic when we have dystopia at home.

Today’s the day! I will be hanging out with the Longbox Punk live at 1pm MST/3pm EST to talk about the new anthology “Mother!”

I dont want to be so sad about this. But they made me feel so small and like -I’m the idiot- even though i have been doing this since 2009 and have production art experience. Their lack of basic quality control and “drag and drop and forget about it” approach is the problem.

I truly truly truly cannot dissuade the comics community enough to never use Kablam printing again. They used to be the place to go for indie creators but now they cannot hide how much they don’t give a fuck about anything besides their bottom line.
