@streakofpith.bsky.social - Hannah Berry was not kidding about the 'existential terror'. This is a comic that is going to stay with me for a while. Incredible craft and execution as well, in just a handful of pages. Wow.

Cooking up some vampire-preventative, for the night that's in it.

Saw Ukranian folk band DakhaBrakha at the Sounds from a Safe Harbour festival in Cork. They were experimental, playful, emotional, raucous, and an utterly joyful celebration of the power of music. An amazing gig.

Debuting this evening at 5PM on Cúla4 - Am Abú - my first TV show. I was head writer and this was a blast to make, and I think it's going to be loads of fun to watch.

Going to be posting about this a lot this week, but my FIRST EVER TV SHOW airs this Thursday, 5PM, on Cúla4, the kids version of TG4.
I was head writer, and worked with the most amazing bunch of people to bring this to life. I think it's a lot of fun, and you should check it out.

I'm not a stamp nerd but boy howdy am I a Peanuts nerd - this was waiting when I got home today. Royal Mail anniversary reissue.
Peanuts just brings me so much joy.

NZ had 13 greyhound deaths last year, and the sport is being banned because of it. This year, Ireland had 96 greyhound deaths. And it got 20 million in government funding. Disgusting and appalling.

It's going to take me a long time to get through all the comics I picked up at Thought Bubble, but an early frontrunner is this, from Katie Handley (not on Bluesky, but find her on insta). It's completely absurd, it's political, and it's very cute. It's basically written for me.

This is what everyone's desk looks like when they're writing ... right? We all need to see the last three hand-scribbled drafts and various unsorted sheets of notes?

Since July I've been working on a kids TV show as head writer (with an amazing team of writers) and we are about to go into production. I can't wait to see it take shape and come to life.

Mari really knocked it out of the park on this one.

Shiny comp copies arrived from Iron Circus Comics! Very excited about this one, it's an amazing anthology, and I think one of the best things myself and Mari Rolin have done.
