From left to right: Master Abe, Doggy Lebowski. Former friends.

Haven't drawn Master Abe in many years. I purposely wrote him into a scene so he could make an early appearance in the series. I have big plans for him.

Decided to redo it anyway. Never liked that one was higher than the other, instead of standing side by side.

Tell me, doesn't it look icon?

This is what they'll use in all the documentaries and essays. Because I wouldn't copyright claim anyone for that.

New version. I lowered Cyan's arm in this one. It always looked like Cyan was offering her sister the blunt.

Found a very old drawing, about ten or fifteen years old, of the original stuff I did for Cyan. I can't use it as is, but I'm going to redo it and keep the image for a chapter header, the first one to be exact, since the story begins essentially this way.

Originally, this was supposed to be on the back cover of issue one, but it didn't exactly fit right. Now, I'm thinking of using it either as a chapter header for the second story or maybe the copyright page at the very end.

I think I can use this cropped image from something else I'm no longer going to use. It's already inked. It looks good. Just ignore the boom mike.

Chapter six header.

Initial sketch and finished pencils.

Now I'm on my way to the second story. Some of it is already done, but not all of it.

Chapter 4 header.

Initial sketch and final pencils.

What's going to happen to these two now? How're they going to get out of it?

You have no idea.

Waste not, want not.

I may have not been able to finish my comic, but I'm going to reuse and repurpose as mush as I can. Case in point: I think this panel will make a fine chapter header. Something exciting this way comes, no?

Finished pencils.

I'm really having fun finally drawing again. I've got some more to go.

Princess Daffodil. For the chapter two header.

Lucky me, all I had to do to reuse this image was just crop it from the original.

It'll be used for chapter six.

I still liked the basic idea of the original cover of Issue one, so I'm going to use it in pieces as chapter headers.
November 28, 2025 at 12:40 PM
I have a plan...
November 27, 2025 at 12:52 AM
New front cover for issue one. Not only did I re-proofread and re-edit, but I also rewrote it a bit. I took two individual stories and combined them into a multi character story, and I added to it, as well.

I think it's an improvement. Plus, I got Claire on the cover. Honestly, I should've put more effort into it the first time around. Also, I have a simple philosophy when it comes to covers: if it has a cute barefoot girl on it, you've got my attention. Hopefully, this time it will attract readers.

How it starts...

From left to right: Doggy & Weaver.

Doggy Lebowski is like Mickey Mouse, if Mickey Mouse was crazy like Walt Disney and hated the whole world.

And Weaver is like a mafia wife who has to deal with her husband's "business," but is also compliset.

A fake ad in my book, which also functions as an origin, of sorts, for a group of characters. Loosely based on a Sea Monkeys ad for authenticity. There's artwork associated with this ad, but that'll come later.

Tell me you wouldn't pay money for this:

An excerpt from "The Misadventures of Claire Taurus." It's a dark romantasy, of sorts.

The whole book is essentially a surreal black comedy, but with elements of scifi and fantasy. And now, romantasy. I'm going to use this word and see if it helps me with sales. I need them.
November 14, 2025 at 12:04 AM
An excerpt from "Bombshells & Boomsticks," the opening short story in the book.

I pride myself in my writing; where I genuinely believe you'll have no idea where it's going, but when you get there it'll all seem inevitable.

The Prolog to Liam & His Shadow Go To Hell. I might work on it some more. I'm in the middle of editing and proofreading.

Tell me, does this invoke your curiosity?
November 12, 2025 at 5:57 AM
Actually...
