Just wanted to clarify, there is no watermark on my finished comic. Even though the example images have the watermark on it, the actual document doesn’t have my name on the centre of every page. That would be way too distracting for the reader.

New neuroscience short story forthcoming in @analogsf.bsky.social! Which also means a story of - ultimately successful - negotiations with their new publisher.
