extremely proud of how the reprint came out for A VERY FRAGILE RELEASE. this is exactly how i envisioned these books - bone dry uncoated stock and an invisible spot gloss on Kingdom of Uranus, all printed locally in Glasgow 🥳

many people see the inkjet printer as a temperamental and nefarious entity, but once you learn all the ins and outs it's really just like working with livestock. like a cow you have to milk in reverse

Give yourself something to look forward to next year. Something less substantial than a resolution which can carry regret if you can't stick to it. Think of a book you want to read, a genre of music you'd like to learn more about, a curiosity to chase no matter how trivial. Keep your spark lit.

Keep thinking about this term "pre-digested" that Kojima used to describe art that's instantly gratifying. And how it's better when people grow to love something instead.
I've gravitated, as player and designer, toward the latter, but that term "pre-digested" is new and feels very strong.

The world has been grinding me down into a pulp and I haven't been promoting The Vow as much as I should be. If you liked it, it would mean the world to me if you made your own post about it! Word of mouth is the only way it gets discovered because of its NSFW content and everything helps 💙
Two people, used only as weapons, are forced together by the shackles of duty to fight a divine foe. Mutual loathing and repressed desires collide, hot and bleeding.
The Vow is a 300 page dark fantasy graphic novel, with art by @feralroyal.bsky.social and words by me. 18+ only.
