I'm excited to announce I'm now represented by the wonderful literary agent @mmmlysaght.bsky.social at ACM 🌈🖤✨

We're pitching a queer deep sea horror graphic novel. Hope an editor bites, I can't wait to draw this!

One of the best things I did for myself this year was switch to listening to a lot more public radio. Don't know what album to put on? KEXP. Get rid of some of the decision paralysis. Put on WFMU

...in which Mystique with the right skin color this time 💙
Risograph print in blue and Fluo pink of the Mystique page. The only reason she didn't get 5/5 score is because, well, she IS kinda mean and evil so we docked her a Charisma point
