When team "And More..." has a Sidewise Award, various awards, and nominations among them, it's going to be a good anthology.

Last one I'm going to honcho for awhile once it gets published. After being the editor for 10 in the last 6 years, it's time to take a break.

So my old school district gave me the Distinguished Alumni Award. Can't make graduation due to conflicts, but had a good time doing my video message for the Class of 2025.

Side note, write out your talking points beforehand. I should have known better, but I tried to wing it at first.

It's my birthday today! Big ol' 35. If you've got a second I'd love if you could share this post of some of my artwork!

Ending Bark March with another super hero pup. This one is flying. I’ll be posting unclaimed paintings tomorrow. Come back in June for #motleycrewjune where I paint any pet that’s not a dog or cat! Bring me your fish, your horses, and everything in between! #barkmarch

I really need to check my Bluesky more often. Too many times just coming in, seeing a whole bunch of y'all in the Following" section, and being like, "Oh crap, I should see what else they've been up to."

No point in getting art commissioned for cons if you're not going to order prints to actually sell. :)

Welp, booked the hotel for the Huntsville Comic Expo in April. Let's get it on!

I'm just thinking that maybe the Jets should, I don't know, consider how they _develop_ QBs given that Sam Darnold AND Geno Smith have beaten them this year.

I mean, if folks go on to powerful second acts...

Well, given all the shenanigans unfolding over on X, I guess I should actually start double posting here!
