Did a couple of pet portraits for a pal today. Kato, his big smiley guy, was a pleasure to know for all of his 14yrs. We don’t deserve dogs, but you would never know it from all the love they give us 🖤

It’s not often that I carve out time for personal projects but this little zine has been stuck in my brain for months and months and needs to come out.

A very happy WET SCREAMS book launch at Hopeless Romantic Bookstore in Totonto! We had costumes, merch, authors signing books, a little dancing, and a lot of giggling. Thanks so much to everyone who came out! If only we could have teleported in @garbagesauce.bsky.social WET SCREAMS is out Nov. 1!

Having a big juicy launch party for WET SCREAMS at Hopeless Romantic Books on Queen West in Toronto. That’s right!

Paintover

In other sticker news, Biblically Accurate Pigeon.

Saw Superman. Had to make some stickers about it. 💙

Every now and then I see pictures after an event and think. I wish I could send this to past Chris. Then he would know that, even though so much of the ride is painful, there would be moments like this to make it less heavy. Bi-weekly life drawing is cool. 💜

This month we had low turnout, which was uniquely helpful- authors who came were all working on novels so had more time to share bigger pieces. @jkrawczyk.bsky.social gave some great insight into what it was like to have diff editors, and we had good convo re. submissions! I love facilitating this 🖤

What if @chrisshapedghost.bsky.social and I made a comic book together. What if that happened

Let's be clear: you knowingly work with a transphobic piece of shit, you are a transphobic piece of shit. With the wealth of information available, there is absolutely no room for any of these actors to feign ignorance and we should not let any of them forget their cupidity for as long as they live.
