Out of the mouths of babes!
Posting this live in a couple of hours, but thought you guys would appreciate an early look! Found this in eldest's schoolwork from last year (would have been 8 at the time) and it made us laugh so much that it's been on the fridge ever since! 🤣
Making of "A Woman's Place"
J is the household chef and I am notorious for being a kitchen menace. If I'm not stealing food or tripping him over, I'm staring at my phone in front of the exact drawer he needs! J pitched this comic idea to me and said "I may have written it, but you co-wrote it, by being annoying!...
Making of "Year In Review"
Still playing catch up with these making of's, oh my goodness!The first half of this one has been sitting in my notes forever! I'm pretty sure J said it to our oldest at some point. It wasn't until I paired it with something the oldest said a couple of years later that it finally graduat...

Making of "Birthday Thanks"
Every year around my kid's birthdays I find my mind drifting to "This time X years ago I'd be _____!" -with whatever I was doing pre, post or during their births. Being pregnant and giving birth still seems insane to me and I can't believe I did it (TWICE!) so I enjoy reflecting ...

9yo writing me comics again! (A real conversation)Trying to think of a bonus panel that doesn't involve me drawing the dinosaurs! Stay tuned...!EDIT: BONUS Panel
Designing Fran's Mom
For the recent subscriber exclusive "Mandarins" comic I had to design Fran's Mom. I'd been putting off designing Fran's parents because for the longest time I'd been considering having her adopted by tigers, but I wasn't quite sure about it. In the end I went the same way...
Making of "Mandarins" (Part 2)
My original plan was to have both kids grossed out at the end, but J came up with the idea of Cooper missing the point and eating the pet goldfish instead, which really kicked the whole joke up a notch! :)For the record, my youngest does now eat mandarins again, but I have to remind him every time t...
Making of "Mandarins" (Part 1)
Just like my oldest I was (and still kind of am!) a very fussy eater. When I resisted eating some mandarins at my Granny's house, she enticed me by wiggling them around like a little goldfish. Call it foreshadowing, but I liked imagining I was a cat, so I eagerly gobbled them up! Ever since then...
COMIC: A Woman's Place (Plus BONUS Panel!)
1st comic of the new year! It's been a while since I've had a comic like this where I keep chuckling as I'm drawing it! :DSpent yesterday fleshing out some comic ideas and I'm now really excited about 2024! Got some good ones in the chamber!(Edit) BONUS Panel:
Making of "2 Wolves BONUS"
As much as I wanted people to argue about the wolf number in the comments, I also wanted them know I knew -so this was my answer to the debate! Of course, the only problem with that was it was subscriber exclusive so I had to sit quietly and pretend I hadn't thought of it -most annoying haha! Oh...
Making of "Getting Dark BONUS"
Almost forgot this! I love doing meme recreations and as this is one of my fav memes, it was a joy to do!It took some experimentation to get Fran's expressions as close as possible whilst staying on model.I'm looking forward to next year when this one can go out to the public to edit! :)
Making of "2 Wolves"
I found this idea in my notes and had no recollection of writing it, but it made me laugh! The ending was originally a bit of a downer with Joel exasperatedly saying "Well yes, but I feel you are missing the point!" I wanted Joel to be a bit more playful, so I had him building on Vince's...
Making of "Getting Dark"
When my oldest started playing Minecraft at 5 it was immediately hilarious, so I started tweeting about it. I still think it is one of the funniest things I have ever done, so I go back and read it from time to time. This last go through, a tweet stood out as a potential quick comic -something I was...
EXCLUSIVE COMIC: Christmas Memories
Woohoo!! I did it!! 2 subscriber comics in one month! :DThis is based on a true story. I still can't get my Dad to admit it!

Making of "Twik or Tweet"
My youngest has always been a huge fan of Halloween, even before he really understood the concept. On his first go trick or treating he'd "Twik or Tweet!" just about anything and wait expectantly for candy. It was absolutely adorable and I you can bet I wrote it down! The problem was, wh...
COMIC: Birthday Thoughts (Plus BONUS Panel!)
I can't be the only weirdo that does this? I'll keep checking the clock to remember where I was in the birthing process! Makes whatever the current birthday party is throwing at me seem like easy-mode! :)Wanted to get this one out today, but missed the window! I might actually skip doing a b...
Playing Catch-Up
Sorry for my slow postings of late. My parents came to visit which was great, but did set me back a bit when I was already behind schedule. Playing catch up now as I know I still owe you Novembers exclusive comic and a bunch of "behind the scenes". My plan is to do 2 Christmas ones this mont...

Making of "Second Born Problems BONUS Panel"
I had the idea of Fran slapping a Band-Aid on the problem back when Cooper was going to be beheaded!I had fun drawing more of demonic Cooper and getting a chance to draw his mouth all deep-sea nightmare! I was going to have his head on backwards again, but the tail being erect make things even worse...
Making of "Second Born Problems"
Been falling behind on these "making of" posts, sorry! I've had this idea on my books for a while but I was stuck on the punchline. I wanted the 2nd panel to have Joel, saying "His head's fallen off!" and Fran, unconcerned, replying "He'll grow a new one!" Joel wo...
