My HUMAN artist finished the character art for one of my main characters!
This is Corvin mere seconds before saving the female main character's life.
I call it "The Towel Scene" 🤭

A baby squirrel climbed on my leg this morning. It's mama wasn't coming back, so I got this one and a sibling to the wildlife hospital.
They said little squirrels come to humans when they need help.
Precious little baby.

I think this applies to all media and genres. If you don't absorb plenty of the thing you want to make, you won't know the territory and will end up reinventing the wheel. If you ONLY absorb that thing, you end up regurgitating what's gone before.
Read something other than comics before you try to make comics.

Don’t get me wrong, read a SHITLOAD of comics. But also read prose fiction, non-fiction, biographies, textbooks, encyclopedias, and other kinds of books.

Comics inspired only by other comics are not good comics.
What's your biggest advice for up and coming comic writers

I had one preorder for my upcoming release. I don't push them very hard, so I was quite pleased.

Then I upped all my ebooks from 2.99 to 3.99, including Retribution.

Preorder canceled. 💔

FYI - if you preorder, you should always get it at the lowest price it was offered.

I should have waited. 😭

Who else enjoys tracking what you read every day?

I'll admit - I'm obsessed!

Writing is political.

That's why you'll find diversity and inclusion, LGBTQIA+ rep, neurodiversity, disability rep, and more in my books.
Because I believe we all deserve to be seen and valued.

I also think it's sad that this even need to be announced, but, I wanted it made CLEAR.

In 12 days, I will give my book baby, the last in this series, to my editor.
It launches April 7.
Then I'll have a complete series. 🤯

There is nothing like a random power outage to make my mind switch to dystopian mode. 🤣
Crossing my fingers it comes back since we're looking at negative temperatures.

The diversity and inclusion all over this platform fills my effing soul with hope.

Whatever happens, never forget: READING FOR PLEASURE has the biggest positive impact of any factor on children's life chances. So always make time to share books with kids, and help them find books to love. Make reading central to everything you do. It will change their lives forever!

Bluesky folks, you are amazing! I'm super excited about this platform! I'm hoping the video app they're talking about launches too. It's so nice to have something NOT meta.
