I’d love to know what is wrong with my face, my lips keep breaking out in an allergic reaction but idk WHY or WHAT is causing it 😭😭😭 this is the second time in one month

Just finished reading Manacled by SenLinYu for the first time since the official rework publishes next week on my birthday (and I’m a nosy bitch) and I’m just casually ruined now so that’s cool

I broke out in another allergic reaction on my lips and they are so swollen and itchy but this time I have no idea what caused it so I want to scream ♥️

Okay, I met my bat quota for the year, no more please, my nerves can’t take the danger dance with rabies

Happy anniversary there’s a bat in my apartment AGAIN but a year later

I wouldn’t wish allergies on even my worst enemy, being itchy all over outside and inside is a slow death

Happy publication day for The Night Circus by @erinmorgenstern.bsky.social 🖤♥️✨ This book has been inspiring my art and pushing me to improve for over a decade now ♥️🤗 (I can only share four images at a time but trust there’s more)

It’s hard to convince myself to get back into writing when I just started improving on my art in earnest

Me: I made carbonara for the first time Mary: it looks good! Was it too eggy? Me: the council (my stomach) has yet to decide if it was too eggy Mary: 😂😂😂

I drew my beautiful wife ♥️

Me, taking Benadryl because the chapstick I’ve been using for months suddenly gave me an extreme allergic reaction on my lips: who else tryna see hat man, amiright?

Best friend: sometimes I’m like ‘yeah I have autism’ but then I hear you talk and I wonder if I really do. Me: what do you mean?? Best friend: you’re so passionate about the things you like. Me: …thank you? 😂

God why is DayQuil so much worse than NyQuil?? Like why is it like THAT???

Everyone, the love of my life:

New art from the YA contemporary romance I'm revising about a high-strung ace actress and an awkward teen heartthrob falling for each other on set. Art by @gidgetdraws.bsky.social! I wanted these two to be so soft and Gidget understood the assignment. I'm so obsessed with them.

Speed Color because it’s my fav part of the process ♥️

Every new thing I learn about Henry Ford makes me wanna piss on his grave.

My best friend about me: if someone who doesn’t know you super well claims they know someone you’ll get along with, 9 times out of 10 they are wrong, you won’t actually like that person. I hate to admit but she was 100% correct. I did not like the person introduced to me but had to pretend I did.

I remembered to film this one 🫣 #etsyshop #blinddatewithabook #packanorderwithme

Insomnia was hitting pretty hard so I figured I’d doodle to try and make myself sleepy and expel whatever restless energy I had and I ended up becoming possessed and drawing soft core porn??? I—???
