Take a look at the comics we've published so far to get an idea of what we're looking for. I'd love to see your work there.

I look forward to the next administration reversing all this ridiculousness. And hopefully wiping out any evidence of this clown's existence.

Still a work in progress though.

The best iced matcha latte of my life was in 2004 in a cafe on the main tourist street in Kyoto. This is the 2nd best so far, found at an ochazuke restaurant in an Aeon Mall in Nagoya.

I spent all day and night fighting demons by making this outfit and working on my embroidery. This is my first attempt at making a top. I started with a Japanese vest pattern but then went a bit rogue…. 😅

I once asked a bookseller at a large indie store how many people would have to buy a book for it to get the attention of the store buyer and cause an additional order and they said: Three.
I see some book piracy discourse, and, to make a positive argument in favor of buying books, your marginal ability to influence what books get published and support the careers of writers you like is massive compared to most other forms of media.

Super funny to read a story about people getting dosed with LSD where it’s immediately clear that the author has never tried LSD 😅
