Watched “Greenland” last night and quite enjoyed it. Ironically, the scene that was a reality stretch for me was near the end. They saw those birds and not a single birder among the survivors excitedly yelled out the species ID! 😂 #birder

Woohoo! So glad it made it to you!
Lump Dog made it in over the border. Beautiful @tjosvold.com . There is so much heart put into this, and world building. I just read a very endearing dog alien human world comic! With more to come, sign up for Greg's next character exploration on Kickstarter. www.kickstarter.com/projects/gre...

Hey awesome comic creators/reviewers,
My book designer left a spot for a pull quote on the inside front cover of my new conspiracy thriller Vxd. Some "social proof" would be really helpful before I crowdfund the book. If you are interested, hit me up, and I'll pass along the link to the PDF via DM.

A lot of people confuse writing with typing.
Writing isn’t typing.
It’s the entire process and yes that includes going for a walk or rearranging things in your office.

Sometimes you sit down to write and instead you think or cut or rewrite or unwrite. That’s okay. That’s a productive day because all of those are part of the process. Keep going.

Writing villains as a comic writer means becoming far too aware of the fragility of modern society. That, and using incognito mode judicially to make sure you don’t accidentally end up on a watch list. 😂
