Diary comics thread for hourly comics day ✏️ intro/9am
#hourlycomicday #MEcfs #ChronicIllness
graphic reads ‘hourly comics day disability diaries’ with a drawing of me (white nonbinary guy w black facial scruff & short green hair) lying in bed looking shattered. Lower text reads ‘hello. I make comics, and—‘ “This year’s my 10 year anniversary of chronic illness (ME/CFS)” - a small cartoon of me with a balloon going ‘wow!!’ then ‘…wait.’ In an inset past year’s comic, I’m going ‘hopefully later I’ll be well enough to draw a little!’ but end up lying still in bed all day - ‘alas’. “*8 years of my illness being “moderate to severe” = mostly bedbound, unable to walk down the street or prepare a meal without collapsing.” “I’ve been making a day of hourly comics every February since I first got ill” (some pics of many years worth of hourlies,w ith me waking up feeling exhausted, too ill to sit up) “It can be hard, but it means a lot to share the reality of my daily life honestly and to hear from others in the same boat. So here’s Hourly comics day 2026” - a small baloon now reads ‘still here!’ next to the same drawing as the first, me now waking up. 9am - “good morning my body feels like it’s been run over by a train’

Someone asked me about processing rejection in traditonal publishing and I wrote too much. So, why not, you folks get to see it as well.
"Ahhh, I've been trying to answer this for a couple days because it is a sore subject for me, especially after talking to my agent about why my second pitch not getting picked up. I'm going to make some edits and resubmit, but it does hurt. Even this next pitch I'm working on, I'm working with the assumption I'm probably going to have to self publish it. I do wish I can give you a success story to aim towards! Publishing is a long game. You have to wiling to put your heart into something, see it fail, and then try again. My mom is also an author. She has published around 11 books now but it took her three manuscripts attempts before her debut. It's a hard industry we've found ourselves in, anon, one made tougher by the current state of things. My agent says that not a lot of things are being picked right now. It's easy to look at friends and peers getting book deals or awards and fool ourselves that it's easy for everyone else, but you don't see the failures and hard work that got them to where they are now. I haven't even talked about my attempts to get Twigs published! Or applying to awards and grants and never getting a single win. It's a hard and unfair industry." "Good Home was a passion project that, in hindsight, wasn't a good fit for a graphic novel. It was trying fit a series of ideas into a novel. Too many storylines, too many characters, not enough structure or attention to pacing. I got a lot of good feedback, editors interested but unable/unwilling to pick it up. Ultimately, it didn't go anywhere. And it was devastating! But there was so much love made into it. Motley, the second project, was worse feedback wise. It was genuinely all "we want something younger/older". People loved the art and story but completely unwilling to take a change on it. ALSO DEVASTATING. Though I am planning on doing a big edit on Motley later this year, I have a good idea of the direction for it. And I still completely believe in that story." I'm trying to get to the place where I can just divorce my feelings from the publishing process, where I can be completely professional about the whole affair. I haven't been entirely successful haha. But I did make a decision during Motley's submission process that I was going to post my work more and look into self-publishing. Because I do want my work to get out there! I don't want arbitrary standards completely define my creativity. That's why I started posting the Good Home Pilot. I wanted people to see the thing I was proud and liked enough to try and get published. It's been really nice seeing people like and react to it. Publishing is just one avenue to getting your work out there and seen. I hope your book gets published, anon. I hope you get a lot of good feedback, catch the attention of editors, and are able make those steps forward. But, as someone currently reckoning with my second failure of a project, it's okay if it doesn't Maybe it's not the right time or place for your story, maybe it needs a new perspective or round of edits, maybe it's in the wrong format. Rejection is not the end. My best advice is to try start a new project. I tend to start new graphic novel projects. Something new and shiny and exciting to devote all of that anxious brain energy to. There is nothing you can do while the book is being pitched. Do not let that stop you from being creative. Just keep moving forward. Nothing is wasted. Every project, every drawing, every word, you're learning and growing. Sometimes it's just not the right time. This ended up being long, sorry about that! It's been something, clearly, that's been on my mind. Hoped it helped in anyway. And, of course, good luck!

I bought a physical sketchbook for the first time this decade and I have some feelings about it
#HourlyComicDay #HCD #Hourlies
A two panel comic. In the first panel, Bex is holding up a sketchbook. She says, "I bought a physical sketchbook even though I hate drawing traditionally." The second panel is a close-up of Bex's grumpy face. She says, "Like, REALLY hate it." A continuation from the previous comic. A tiny Bex is stood on a giant Sketchbook with a giant iPad behind her. she says, "I fucking hate that gen AI makes me doubt the value of my digital work now. Seriously, who gives a shit?" A continuation from the previous page. A hand double taps a surface with two fingers, this is how you undo a line in Procreate. The text reads: My digital art is clean to a fault, something I've spent the last few years trying to unlearn. Is a wobbly line more authentic than a smooth line? Can you feel the artist through the tremors of their work? A continuation from the previous page. A large panel that's mostly black, with some semi abstract white forms scattered about. They look like leaves or flowers, but it's not specific. The text reads: But it takes a lot of effort and study to daw a smooth line, even if it's digital. Is that effort not also authentic?

I made a video to promote my automated thought balloons and people are asking about the 'thoughts' I wrote into the text blocks.

Gee whiz guys, I needed text so gosh I just put whatever carefree thought's been rattling around in my head for, oh I dunno, the last decade or so

There's a strange satisfaction in revising a book I lettered for the first time almost four years ago. So many chances to make things better, but also lots of "way to go 4-years-younger me!" :) #DeathDropDragAssassin

BALLAD FOR BLACK CASSANDRA was a new type of personal project for me that I'm still very fond of. You can read it for free in this thread:
bsky.app/profile/oliv...

or pick up the PDF here:
oliveoilcorp.itch.io/ballad-for-b...
Page 1 of the comic poem BALLAD FOR BLACK CASSANDRA. A Black woman stands in the middle of towering trees with large holes in their trunks. She wears a sheer slip dress and looks up at the orange sky. Caption: THE SKY HAS A CRACK IN IT. Page 2 of the comic poem BALLAD FOR BLACK CASSANDRA. Following the woman's line of sight, we're looking up at an angry-looking sky that almost looks split down the middle. The shot is framed by a pair of damaged trees. CAPTION: "A big gaping wound right there, in the middle." In the next panel, thick droplets of moisture run down a harsh cloudy-looking texture. CAPTION: "It leaks." Page 5 of the comic poem BALLAD FOR BLACK CASSANDRA. Panel 1: Sweat drips down the woman's face as she exerts herself. Panel 2: The woman is small against the backdrop of the fracturing sky as she climbs the steep cliffside. Panel 3: The woman has climbed to the top. She holds on for dear life at the edge of the cliff, trying to address a person standing there in front of her. The person shares the same exact shape as the woman, but their features are obscured by the same swampy textures that can be seen inside the crack of the sky. They are You. Caption: "I came to tell You about the crack." Panel 4: You turns their head up to gaze at the cracked sky. Page 5 of the comic poem BALLAD FOR BLACK CASSANDRA. Panel 1: Sweat drips down the woman's face as she exerts herself. Panel 2: The woman is small against the backdrop of the fracturing sky as she climbs the steep cliffside.

Me and Mine carry damaged tree trunks on scarred shoulders with scarred hands and scarred bodies. "Me and Mine built a roof" Me holds a mallet and looks on as Mine and Our neighbors work to build a shelter from the timber. "to shelter from the Water."
