I live on Treaty One Territory.
I post my sketches, and check out other human-made art.

I explicitly request that all my sketches be excluded from any party planning to scrape and/or utilize them for AI training or content generation.

Carrie Fisher was an American actress and writer. She played Princess Leia in the Star Wars films. Her other film credits include Shampoo (1975), The Blues Brothers (1980), Hannah and Her Sisters (1986), The 'Burbs (1989), When Harry Met Sally... (1989), Soapdish (1991), and The Women (2008). Fisher wrote several semi-autobiographical novels, including ‘Postcards from the Edge’ and an autobiographical one-woman play, and its nonfiction book, ‘Wishful Drinking’, based on the play. She wrote the screenplay for the film version of ‘Postcards from the Edge’ which garnered her a nomination for the BAFTA Award for Best Adapted Screenplay, and her one-woman stage show of ‘Wishful Drinking’ received a nomination for the Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Variety, Music or Comedy Special. An Entertainment Weekly article from May 1992 described Fisher as "one of the most sought-after doctors in town."
