Walk
************************ It’s been a little while since I’ve posted a comic, and that’s largely because, well … I’ve been asleep a lot. It’s just my usual Chronic Fatigue Syndrome fatigue (which comes and goes and will continue to come and go) and it’s actually lifted a lot over the last few weeks compared to how […]

Productivity
************************* I have struggled with this a lot since becoming chronically ill, and even more so since the pandemic started. Sometimes I need the reminder. Other safe stuff HERE. If you love my stories and comics, check out my Patreon page. You can support my work and get unique rewards! This comic is available as a print! Along with […]

Purpose
********************************* Okay, so this one isn’t exactly fluff, but ideally it’s not a downer either.

Number 4
I’ve had a fourth miscarriage. I drew journal comics to process the experience. I’ve decided I will post them here. I have written about miscarriage before, (first two here, comics drawn after the third one here and here) and I don’t think I can do it again. Not like that. To do that, you have […]

The second miscarriage wasn’t only a miscarriage, it was the first miscarriage happening again as well as a new miscarriage. And now this miscarriage is the first miscarriage happening again, and the second miscarriage happening again, as well as a new […]

How to Get a Cat: An Illustrated Guide
For the last couple of years, I have sat at home all day alone. Chronic illness can do that to you. It hasn’t been too bad, really. I don’t live alone, so I have company for non-working hours, and some wonderful friends and family members visit and take me out on my good days. A lot of people with my illness have it much worse. But still. Being alone wears you down. (Even a super introvert with social anxiety disorder and occasional agoraphobic leanings, like me.) So, easy solution, I got a cat…

Impromptu, Not-Funny Thoughts About 2016, Life and Depression. Also Cats.
I have seen a lot of jokes and not-so-jokes about 2016 kicking humanity in the tender bits. It’s a bit weird for me because 2016 has been the best year of my life. (So far)…
