He/him. A place for sequential art and illustrations that I admire. Also cats and things of interest. I don't use A.I. for my art or writing and I avoid it as much as possible.

If you have a story you want to tell, tell it the best way you know how. I'm find the comic / graphic novel format interesting but you don't have to box yourself in.
If thou, to be so seen, beβst loath,
By sun or moon, thou darkβnest both,
And if myself have leave to see,
I need not their light, having thee.

When the daylight grows pleasant⪭
In our own cosy cot, I am waiting
For the slam of the little front gate.
The birds at the doorway are singing,
The roses their beauty debate;
But I sit here alone, and I listen
For the slam of the little front gate.

An awkwardly angled shot of a table of 18 people of all ages and myself talking at Eggville, a breakfast restaurant. We didnβt really have room to both get a good angle and while also respecting peopleβs privacy :)
An older gentleman in a Kat campaign shirt and I pose for a selfie at the same restaurant. Iβm holding the phone and heβs a sweetie pie.
Had so many people show up to our office hours in Cary this morning that we had to bring over an extra table!
If you couldnβt make it, weβll also be posted up at Al Mawa in Morton Grove at 2 PM today!
