"The world is full of voices telling adolescents they don’t matter and don’t understand anything, so a good YA book shouldn’t talk down to teens or portray them as helpless."

I wrote about how writing and reading young adult fiction made me a way better adult author: www.latimes.com/entertainmen...

Fans of The Dark Tower series by @stephenking.bsky.social will recognize this imagery right away. I've had this idea for a long time, and finally put it down in ink. Prints are available in my shop, linked in my bio.

A.I. art is bad at everything, but comics are kind of the thing it's WORST at. By its very nature, it can't make, say, a character look consistent in two panels. It can't make creative decisions about pacing or emphasis. Everything unique about comics as a medium are things A.I. is uniquely bad at.

I would like to see more nuanced representations of cancer in popular culture.

The rules of the Gullen Test are:
1. The person with cancer talks about something that is not cancer
2. The person with cancer does not die of cancer

Recently had to wipe and reinstall all my files on my computer, as it had been very slow for some time and as a result I hadn't used it properly for years. I have been confronted by the fact that EVERYTHING I have archived is organised in such a manner that it's now nonsensical to me. Wish me luck!
