Hey everyone following me, thanks for being here. I still don't know what here is. But I want to share some exciting news.
I just received the final edits for my Aztec fantasy graphic novel Polloman which I've been working on for 6 years with Harper Alley.
Next month, production begins!

An ironic metaphor in that AI is designed to be nothing BUT a hall of mirrors, endlessly reflecting and regurgitating back on itself, warping reality. Just yourself in a bubble endlessly laughing at your own reflection, all humanity and companionship an illusion.
