DOG COMIC: Catch
BONUS Panel?! (I know these don't usually get them but I couldn't resist!)
Making of "Gaming Marathon"
I came up with this one ages ago after watching the kids bouncing around gaming. I knew it would be challenging visually and I didn't feel I had the chops for it at the time, so I left it on my ideas list. There it sat until last month when our oldest celebrated his 9th birthday. He asked for a ...

Making of "Seasonal Scare"
Our youngest (6) and hubby are all about Halloween, (oldest and I like it too, but we're not AS obsessed!) so they both stalk the shops in August waiting for the Halloween merch to land. Target is the avocado of Halloween shopping (it's not there, it's not there, it's THERE! It's...
COMIC: Seasonal Scare
This was a bit spooky because it happened to J and our 6yo, which gave me the idea for the comic. Then it happened AGAIN with the 9yo in tow and I got to show him the comic and he said the line! Talk about life imitating art! 😂BONUS Panel for subscribers >>> https://www.patreon.com/posts/comic-se...
COMIC: Gaming Marathon (plus BONUS panel!)
BONUS Panel!
Making of "Vaguebooking"
Realized I never did a write up of this one, sorry!This was a very silly idea of mine! Dogs apparently get a whole lot of information out of butt sniffing so I reasoned that if an anthro dog wanted to find something out, they might try sniffing someone's butt! The obvious (well to me!) set up wa...
Making of "Warpath BONUS"
I went though quite a few ideas for this bonus panel! Something about the idea of a mug being the only thing standing in the way of total destruction was funny to me. I had Joel and Vincent discussing it in the foreground with Cooper about to leap on Fran in the background, but I didn't like how...
Making of "Warpath"
I often notice when my hormones are out of whack because my inner monologue gets unnecessarily bitchy, but sometimes J will notice before I do. I'm usually relieved to have it pointed out because it means whatever is troubling me won't seem so bad in a few days. One time recently though I wa...
COMIC: Seasonal Shopping (plus BONUS panel!)
Sorry I've been a bit absent of late. Had a couple of trips away, plus 8yo is now 9yo! Kids went back to school today, so I'll be able to get back at it with comics. Literally just finished this one -based on something that happened to the boys the other day. I'll come back and update th...
COMIC: Warpath
BONUS Panel >>>>>> https://www.patreon.com/posts/comic-on-warpath-86980251(Sorry for the double post! I figure the only way to manage the new subscriber perks is to do a public and subscriber version)
COMIC: On The Warpath (plus BONUS panelS!)
Based on a (reoccurring!) true story! 😅Been away, so I'm running a bit behind, but managed to knock this one out in airports and planes! I love my iPad!Edit: BONUS PanelS!Took ages to think up a bonus panel and then couldn't decide which line I liked better, so you get TWO!
Making of "Chicken Strip"
Good news everybody! I figured out making time-lapse videos in Clip Studio! I'd tried other methods of screen recording before, but they were always a pest because I stop and start comics a lot (#momlife!) and would have to knit the videos together afterwards with low levels of success. The way ...
DOG COMIC: Vaguebooking
July's Dog Comic with guest appearance from Fran!
Tier Confusion
To eliminate confusion with the subscription levels I've unpublished the $2 tier. Those of you enrolled in that tier may stay there for as long as you like and I will continue to publish behind the scenes content for you all; it just prevents new people from pledging at that level.The $5 tier is...

Making of "Puppy Power"
This pup made her debut all the way back in Jun 2018!Turns out babies aren't made how you were told, they come about when a writer needs 2 moms to be at a baby group together to horrify the internet with hyena facts! :)Poor little pup has been in a couple of strips since then, but always as more...
COMIC: Chicken Strip (plus BONUS panel!)
I probably shouldn't have lobbed this grenade in my world building, but it was too funny! 😅BONUS Panel:
Making of "Moral Of The Story"
FYI: it's been brought to my attention that Patreon aren't blurring out locked images very well so I'll be moving the main image down into the body of the post. Not sure how that will affect reading them and I'm sorry if it's negatively. I wrote to Patreon to ask them to up the b...
Making of "Hatchlings (remastered)"
This is a remaster of a comic from 2019. I often worry they're not going to change that much, but then I look at the side by side and can't believe how much difference a bunch of tiny tweaks makes!As well as redrawing all the linework and adding shadows, I reworked the speech bubbles, moving...
COMIC: Hatchlings (remastered)
Last of the webtoon early release ones! They'll all be coming to subscribers first now!BONUS Panel:
COMIC: Moral of the Story
Still have to figure out a bonus panel, but wanted to get this early release comic to you guys! This one actually happened, but replace "brothers" with "siblings" and the show was "Gravity Falls"!For the bonus, I was going to have them both being friends when Fran leaves beca...
COMIC: Fran tries a Grimace Shake
There's a challenge on Twitter to draw your character drinking a Grimace Shake and dying. If I was my character, this is exactly how it would go down. Tried my best to speed draw this as it's a silly throwaway comic. Also of note, I cannot vouch for the shake being "yummy" yet, but F...
Few Changes Around Here
July marks the end of my deal with Webtoon to release comics there before anywhere else. That means $5 and up subscribers will once again enjoy early release comics! Woohoo!I'm going to continue with the monthly Dog Comics because they've been fun! Junes comic is running a bit late, but it i...
Making of "Need to Brush"
Getting my oldest to brush his teeth has always been a challenge. His younger brother will happily comply (and according to his dentist, even do a pretty good job!) -but it's a nightly war of words to convince #1. This comic wasn't actually something he said, but me anticipating his counter ...
COMIC: Need to Brush
We didn't think this one through...
Making of "Let it Out"
Bad news: this one was a nightmare. Good news! it generated a bunch of behind the scenes content!I was approached by Skybound to do a comic to help promote Mr. Lovenstein's new book Kickstarter. I was truly honored to be asked because I always feel a little different from those "cool" we...
COMIC: Let it Out
It was an honor to be asked to do a "Feelings" themed comic for Mr Lovenstein's brand NEW book "Feelings" that just launched on Kickstarter!Go grab a copy, his work is a masterclass in comic creation! https://tinyurl.com/2x4p6725
Making of "Tag Yourself"
I'm not actually sure how this one came to me. Something just clicked while watching the cats being crazy at night after sleeping all day (seriously, these cats are paying for themselves with ideas!)I'd seen a similar comic before by Gemma Correll and worried it might be too close:I asked J ...
