I had a fantastic time last weekend @smallpressexpo.bsky.social ! Thank you so much to the organizers. SPX puts wind in my sails to keep drawing comics and keep going even when it is hard. Thanks also to my table mates @ghostlysloth.bsky.social, @jadepagecraft.bsky.social and @ruemxu.bsky.social ❤️

Op-comic: A personal case against eliminating the penny President Trump said he would direct the Treasury to stop making pennies. I immediately thought of my late grandmother.

Today, @emenez2.bsky.social and I have a piece in the LA Times Op-Comic section. She wrote it and I made the drawings. I'm really pleased with how it turned out! www.latimes.com/opinion/stor... @latimes.com
