That wonderful feeling when you send in a piece of monster art for a project, and the reaction is "Shit, he's hot".

Hey friends, I need your help. If just 30 of my 3000+ followers picked up a $1 monthly Ko-fi membership, I could cover two of my #epilepsy medications each month.
You could be one of those 30 cool kids that help give me some peace of mind. #mutualaid

So glad that some of the amazing folks I followed/was followed by have found me, but I miss the 2000 others. I loved seeing their art, their games, the weird movies (@diamandahagan.bsky.social, @phelous.bsky.social , @allisonpregler.bsky.social , @filmbrainbmb.bsky.social ), and Tam, weird child.🫢

So, once the Codex of Celestials is out for 5e, I'll be focusing on my comic BUT I have a cosmic horror pantheon in development for #Daggerheart #TTRPG.
Got over enthused and accidentally made 52 monsters, including the genuinely joyful Mr. Jenkins.

Finished the writing for the 4 issues of The LADDER - got some #art done too! If you love surreal #horror #comics that don't hold your hand, follow me. I'll be dropping images and info in the run-up to the Kickstarter.

Good things for today: now 3 of the cats play fetch with pompoms; the roof has finally been fixed (it's so much warmer without the gaping hole); I've spent some time helping a taekwondo club and community centre apply for grants; drank so much tea.
Bad things: 5 hour meeting about High Streets.

Anyhoo, as much as having to faff about sorting a new Bsky account can be, it DOES give me an excellent opportunity to request loads more people to tell me the #ttrpg and #comicbooks they love!
