New Product Sneaky Peek!

Sneaky peek at the labels for a new product that should be hitting my shop soon! ☕

COMIC: Feelin' Festive

I'm not sure when to post this one. I personally don't allow Christmas decorations until after Thanksgiving, but would this be funnier if posted before?BONUS Panel:

Chesca Hause post Making of "Miracle" from patreon

I needed to poo the other day and got the idea for this comic! 😆During the main event there's contractions too, which are their very own level of hell, but that "needing to push" thing you hear about is 100% the same as "I gotta poop". I wasn't warned about this and I reme...

COMIC: Baby Spoon

Based on a true story.BONUS Panel:

Making of "Very Creative"

My 7yo can be difficult, so I like to keep the lines of communication open with his teachers. I'd been getting a lot of not so good reports home, so I was overjoyed when this one arrived!Brimming with pride I immediately wrote back to say how wonderful that was to hear. When he got home, I told ...

Making of "Candy For Lunch"

I get very anxious about Halloween candy. On one hand I feel the parental responsibility to limit it, but at the same time, maybe it's a good thing for them to experience a self inflicted tummy ache? Then they start feeding it to me and all bets are off. Last year I realized them bribing me to k...

COMIC: Miracle

One for the moms! ❤️BONUS Panel:

COMIC: Possessed

Collab with the fantastic Doodle Demon for Comictober Day 28: Possessed!If you don't follow him already, you should! :) https://direct.me/thedoodledemon

Sneak Peek at Tomorrows Comic!

Tomorrows comic is a collab with another artist! Who can name him? 😃

Making of "Goldilocks"

All the comictober members get to suggest words and one of mine was "fairy tale". I knew it had potential, but when crunch time came I was drawing a blank. So I did what I always do: LISTS! After brainstorming on the various fairy tales, The Three Bears was the obvious winner. The thought of...

COMIC: Very Creative

My kid is VERY creative....BONUS Panel:

Making of "Recursive"

I had a lot of fun making the zombie comic last year, so I thought I'd try a robot version. For these kinds of comics, I make a list of all the typical family things (bedtime, mealtimes, getting kids ready etc) and imagine how things might go down in a zombie/robot/whatever world.I LOVE Futurama...

Four Horsemen

I started doing this one for Comictober Day 23: Apocalypse. It's supposed to be the 4 Horsemen of the Kidpocalypse. J came up with the 4 names (a play on War, Pestilence, Famine and Death) and I drew it. The problem is I interpreted Deaf as being a dad who is oblivious to the chaos around him, c...

Making of "Candy Stash"

I have a notorious sweet tooth. I don't hide my candy in the toilet, but I do squirrel it away on the higher shelves in the larder. I'll probably have to get sneakier as my kids get older, but I have read about some funny hiding places online. That gave me the inspiration for this comic.I or...

COMIC: Candy for Lunch

This one will be going out Nov 1st. I thought of it last year after Halloween, but by then the timing was off, so I had to sit on it until now.Edit: Literally just finished this bonus panel which I forgot I had to do!

Making of "Boggart"

I never read any Harry Potter until this year. J's a huge fan of the movies, so I've seen them all, but evidently I space out when a CGI creature isn't on the screen, because I can't remember much of what happens. We're on the 4th book now and it's been an absolute joy readin...

COMIC: Goldilocks

Comictober Day 26: Fairy Tale

COMIC: Recursive

Comictober Day 22: Artificial IntelligenceI had too much fun with this one! BONUS panel is incoming, but I couldn't wait to show you guys what I had so far! :)EDIT: Showed this comic to 7yo and explained about scientific names. 7yo "What's the scientific name for butt?"Me "Gluteu...

Perler Bead Crafts

Comictober Day 11: CraftsThought I'd try something different today! I designed my own perler bead Litterbox crafts you can make at home!Assembly instructions: https://www.litterboxcomics.com/perler-bead-crafts/

Making of "Urban Legend"

Comictober has been useful because it's forcing me to create content on demand, rather than waiting for the kids to do something funny. I've always said the characters are based on us, rather than us. To me, they are their own "people" with their own stories to tell and I'm relie...

AI Sneak Peek

I'm channeling Futurama for Comictober Day 22: Artificial Intelligence. I'm still playing with the colors, but wanted to give you guys a sneak peek! 😁

COMIC: Candy Stash

Comictober Day 17: Candy

Making of "Boogeyman"

I brainstormed on the Comictober word "Boogeyman", trying to think of some twist on the classic monster under the bed trope. I kept working through ideas until arrived at this one. I had some fun with the monster! I knew the punchline would land better if he was genuinely horrifying. I looke...

COMIC: Boggart

Been looking for an excuse to do a Harry Potter one since I started reading the books with 7yo. It's my first time reading them and we're really enjoying it! :)(Update!) BONUS Panel:

Making of "Three Wishes"

Every time I get into one of these infuriating back & forths with my oldest, I think to myself what a brilliant evil genie he'd make. He delights in turning my requests around and complying -but not. It makes everything take forever and drives me nuts. Often I just end up losing my cool, but som...

Making of "Shadow"

One bedtime 7yo interrupted me reading with "Did you know that M&Ms are all different species?" It was so random and had absolutely nothing to do with anything -I loved it! 😆I've wanted to do a "woken up by creepy kid" comic for a while, but honestly 7yo has never done it. His...

COMIC: Urban Legend

I may or may not come back and do a bonus panel for this one. It feels like there should be a joke in Vincent telling a story that would scare his parents, but I haven't quite put my finger on it. Honestly I just kind of want an excuse to draw Vincent with the flashlight, because those panels ar...

Making of "Super Important"

This basically happened. I WISH I could find the actual letter, but I've been searching up and down with no luck. I believe it said something along the lines of "To Mommy and Daddy, sorry for writing this." It had us chuckling at the absurd self fulfilling prophecy nature of it, but I wa...
