After a year I tried returning to Facebook. They won’t let me because apparently I am “…closely linked with a network of accounts or other entities that violate or evade our policies.” Really?

Maybe part of rebranding myself in comics could come from using a pseudonym. Ai could make me a young vibrant Italian girl out of college.

Currently cooking meatloaf… and I have no idea what I am making, hahaha!

Sorry Bluesk, I didn’t give you my full attention. In fact, I haven’t hit the promotion grind hard enough on any platform. So, since I’m starting again from bottom, I’m gonna add Meta back and try to rebrand myself.

It has been a year without Meta products and I admit it hurts my promotion. I also admit I didn’t give BlueSky a full chance - as it has not grown enough. My career in comics is stalled, so I’m gonna include Meta and other platforms, again.

What comic era are we in now? We’ve had Golden Age, Silver Age, Bronze Age, Modern Age, etc…

So hard to find artists for comics nowadays. So many do characters, but they can’t do backgrounds. So many do superheroes only, or it’s too cartoony, or only spot illustration - not sequential, especially for a series of 4 to 5 issues.

I’m an old dog that might need a new trick. I dunno. But I feel more like a spectator in the stands more than a player on the field. #artist #comics #creator

Took me a while, but I have come to realize that I am an Artist Living In Epilogue.

November 21st. 2012. Comic book wives have a special place in heaven. #wedding #anniversary #comics

After 30 years as a published comic professional I’m still trying to break into the comic industry, lol.

Just drove back to California from War-torn Oregon. I couldn’t believe the sheer destruction [/sarcasm]

Jesse Welles concert last night. #jessewelles #music #live #concert #filmoresf

Gonna see a concert tonight, but my introvert side would also be just fine staying home. #comics #writing

I’ve been on Bluesky since February - when I left all Meta stuff behind. I still don’t feel at home here, nor any social media platform. I’m basically social media homeless. #media #socials #bluesky

One again, picking up the script I started almost a year ago. UNLOVED. The story of a demon searching for true love. #comics #art #demon #romance

After outlining 3 issues and a ton of research… I’m gonna stop writing the script for this new series because I don’t want draw all the detailed city scenes, lol.

Currently writing a comic script that has no ending. All my career I’ve written stories with a beginning/middle/end. This is my first attempt of an *intentional* on-going series. #writer #comics #script

Is there a 3D art reference app like HANDY… but for animals, cats? Not Ai, but *posable art reference* for animals. #art #arttools #artapps #artreference #cats

I have an idea for a comic series, but I already have other books I gotta finish. The curse of being a writer/artist is the strong desire to do it all yourself.

Basically, I feel I have to break into comics all over again. #comics #creator

FOC 10/27! @jimmierobinson.bsky.social 's "ARTillery" and "Do Not Disturb" Our latest Invasions! Don't miss your chance to grab a copy. Tell your local comic shop to order TODAY!

No, we cannot let Dolly Parton die, not now. Give her all the support she needs. If Nobel peace prizes are being handed out she needs to be on that list now, not later.

I hate waking up wondering why I’m even still alive. It’s like… why do I exist?

Once again, how can I draw better, make better comics, make something unique… it haunts me.

The price I pay on my old desktop to keep running photoshop CS6.

WHOOPS! Issue #1, page 7 Cuban mother with interpreter. Issue #3 page 12, Cuban mother speaking English. #comic #comicart #writing

I’m revisiting an old script I had put on hold — and immediately found huge plot holes all over it. WHAT THE HELL WAS I THINKING?

ARTillery is fighting for YOUR ART!

Sneak peek of new ARTillery cover art. Want to see it finished in full color? Order yours from Lunar distribution from Invader Comics #art #comics #comicnews @invadercomics.bsky.social

I’m still using Photoshop CS6 (2012) on my desktop. The last physical media you can own of PS. I just used it to make a cover for my comic ARTillery, to be published by invader comics @invadercomics.bsky.social. #comics #art #photoshop

ARTillery #1 exclusive preview. All human art and creativity comes from an ancient power source, amplified by magical gateways all over the world, but now a sentient AI is closing the gateways in order to control all of the world’s creative arts. #comics #graphicnovel @invadercomics.bsky.social

Comic creators: what is your definition of success? People *want* to break into comics all the time, but what do you *want* to get out of it? #comics #comicbooks #comiccreators #comicnews

ARTillery. Ai stole your art, in this comic we’re gonna steal it BACK! Find out how from @invadercomics.bsky.social in lunar distribution soon. It’s been a while since I had a new book.

I’ve made comics for 30 years. Seeing the circle go around with new talent is heartwarming. All the cries of “comics are dead” falls at the feet of creativity. #comics #creators #graphicnovels #comicnews #comicbooks

Which *Comic Feed* do you use on Bluesky? I’m looking and I don’t see much out there. Am I looking in the wrong place? I mostly see individual users, but not much about the industry as a whole.

Are romance comics dead? #comics

What is motivating you to create comics and to be part of the industry? What drives you?

Clothes washing machine is broken, AGAIN. I’ve fixed it 3 times, we’ve replaced these twice with used machines. Trying to do the right thing by repairing instead of adding to the landfill, but every 6 months is pretty lame. #handyman #washmachine #repair

@jonbeanhastings.bsky.social @itineterry.bsky.social finally finished the HOOTERS dark rum. Momma didn’t raise no quitter. #rum #hooters

FUNEMPLOYED is basically the definition of making comics. lol.

I wanted to copy my bluesky user handle for a text message (as I can do on other platforms) but it doesn’t seem possible. Am I missing something?

What’s up?

Diabetic neuropathy is eating my foot away. I can’t wait to get my peg leg. Perfect excuse for “Gee, wish I could help (fill-in-the-blank) but only got one leg to stand on.”

Ai art for this, really?

YALL UP? We got an official time!! youtu.be/oMke8X0f7RM?...

At the grocery store… so tempted…

At the grocery store and see this. Didn’t this mofo kill like billions of people when he destroyed that planet? He’s worst than Hitler and he’s pushing Wheat Thins? C’mon.
