My Brain #1: I’ve been falling behind with comics lately, but I can get ahead on this one by doing a real simple bonus panel with 2 piles of dust and “Wash your dust.”
My Brain #2: Oh! Oh! I’ve got another idea!
Brain #1: Is it as easy as 2 piles of dust…?
Brain #2: Suuuuure! It’ll be...

Taking your 1st kid home from the hospital is weird. We've always joked that the bar should be higher than just needing a car-seat.
I usually don't know what animal "extras" are going to be when I first sketch them out, so they start out as blank "people" shapes. For this, I realized I could get a gag in abo...

I'm very good at this game!
BONUS Panel:
For those unfamiliar with World of Warcraft terminology, it translates as:
Thanks for handling the kids for us tonight! We already put the baby to bed, but you'll need to entertain the older one for a bit. He learned some new tricks recently, so watch out he doesn't wear you down or get mad. &nbs...

I discovered today that I share my birthday with Legend of Zelda! I'm 6 years older, so I was inspired to draw 6 year old Fran fangirling out.
This is the first time I've drawn her as a kid and I'm pretty smitten! Tempted to do some comic strips from her youth, what do you think?
Happy 35th Birthday Li...

Rolling backouts have ceased, so I can get back on my computer to post this!
My friend posts photos of the clever food arrangements she makes her kid and I'm always impressed how great they look and that he actually eats them. I've seen it! It happens!

Last year was the first time we had to sit down and write Valentines to the class. He complained a lot and it was pretty dreadful, but I got a bunch of comic ideas for THIS year! 😅
Sadly there is no Hermione and Kylo in his class, but when I was looking at the names list, I thought how cool it would be if there...

These "relatable" ones are always a roll of the dice. Either people will have the same experience and find it funny, OR they'll have no idea what you're on about and it will bomb. Luckily for me, it seems to have landed and people aren't thinking I'm some sort of baby-hating-monster! 😅
The 1st draft was l...

2021-01-25 18:36:51 +0000 UTC View PostSo last week had the additional wrinkle of 6yos teacher testing positive. We got him tested and he's thankfully fine, but the kids both had to stay home to be extra sure. This meant us all living on top of each other in an Air BnB while our house was torn apart to remove the mold. Then back to our house with...
2021-01-25 18:32:59 +0000 UTC View PostOur house is getting torn up next week (thanks mold!) so I'm busy moving stuff around in preparation. I'm hoping I can get back to drawing next week, but I might hold off from posting publicly so I can build up a bit of a buffer again. I will be posting here for the $5+ tiers though. We'll see how it goes, j...

I have developed quite a good "nag filter" which, among other things, is useful for catching nags that might backfire. The 1st panel actually happed, but then the rest played out internally in my head. I turned to J afterwards and laughed about how I'd almost scolded him for eating the Froot Loops I'd just had, to...

I have this problem quite frequently, where I try to stay off my phone, but then something happens that I HAVE to post about. If I can't figure out a good way to phrase a post, I write it down in a Google Doc to use for a comic or photo quote later. I rooted through my photo quotes file and found these gems! ...

Taking process videos has proved difficult because comics usually take at least 4hrs (usually a lot more!) and aren't done all in one sitting. This results in me having a bunch of clips I have to stuck together to make a VAST video I then need to compress, which I've had a really hard time doing.
I realized early ...
