Wondering if any cartoonist friends can recommend a freelance editor? I have a very tired brain and maybe I'm just not remembering who exactly I know, but I'd appreciate any recs or reminders!

I finally used my tattoo pass from @sophiemcpike.bsky.social last week and got this gorgeous beauty on my calf and tested some of her glitter/stars as filler on my arm!

Tattoos done by Rob King at Chapterhouse in Baltimore!
A close-up of Kayleigh’s calf shows a fresh tattoo. It is a black ink illustration of a woman hugging her knee while sitting under a crescent moon. There are stars in her hair and on the back of her thigh. A close-up of Kayleigh’s forearm shows glittery stars in blue, purples, and pink filling in the gaps between tattoos. They have a mid-century modern aesthetic.

Catching up on my last book haul. I am so grateful for libraries!!
“Processing: 100 Comics That Got Me Through It” by Tara Booth is being held up in Kayleigh’s dining room. The cover features the inner mappings of the author’s mind as a cross-section of their head, revealing a conveyor belt of various items. “It Lasts Forever and Then It’s Over” by Anne de Marcken features a neon yellow-green cover with the silhouette of a dead bird. “Second Shift” by Kit Anderson features two astronauts in a field on the cover. “Menopause: A Comic Treatment”, edited by MK Czerwiec, has a red cover with nine panels depicting several ailments and worries associated with menopause. The cover illustration is from Teva Harrison, and the book features work from several artists!!

It’s Banned Books Week, and I don’t need you to buy my book as a solve for it (but buy it if you want to! That’s still extremely cool of you)—I need you to show up for your public libraries and your schools!

It’s hard to find elsewhere, so I’m gonna make my own batch again. Last time, I “accidentally” made two gallons of it. 🤌🏻
