I started this comic as a challenge to myself to create something new when the rest of my life seemed to be stuck. I try to create things that I enjoy, which means lots of books, cats, spiders, and general coziness. I've been grateful to have a little corner of the internet to put spiders in tea cups and write ghostly proposals.

I love riding my bike in the rain! Everytime I go through a puddle I get to hear the satisfying splash and it's very nice.

I started the comic when I was struggling with depression and a couple other things in my life. I hadn't drawn in a long time and I wanted to get back into it, so I thought a comic would be a way to encourage myself.

    I spend about two to three hours a week brainstorming. Oftentimes after I brainstorm I'll send my ideas to a friend to see if it's actually funny. Then finishing the drawing is another 1-2 hours.

    The best part of drawing comics is having a little space to try out jokes and make something. I'm glad that other people enjoy them, too.

    One of my cats favorite toys is... A broken hair tie. I tie the ends into knots so the fabric covering doesn't come apart. Then i throw the broken hair tie. He runs after it, grabs it in his mouth, and brings it back. He loves to play fetch. (Please note, if you give your cat a broken hair tie, make sure that you're watching them and don't let them run off with it. Hair ties can be ingested and cause intestinal blockages. My cat does not eat them and he only shows interest when he's in the mood for fetch and we collect the toy when he's bored...)

    Oh god, this is how we got almost all of our pets. Parrotlet? She bit like crazy and no one wanted her. Rat? "Allergies" - it was actually the rat that had that red mucous sneezing thing, not the person that owned him. Hedgehog? Twisty leg, because the pet shop owner kept the poor dude in a wire cage! Dogs? Countless - blind in one eye, emotionally messed up, & breeder mamas that were super old and needed love before they passed. I feel this comic in my soul because I'd still do it in a heartbeat!

    When I was getting ready for Bouche, I went to Chewy and looked at all the cat stuff. I got her a variety pack of toys, a wand, a tunnel, mice, balls, springs, the whole works. I wanted to spend around $15 for that. I looked at packages between $10 and $20. Most of the ones with both a wand and a tunnel had this ugly rubber fish. So I bought the one in my price range that had a wand, a tunnel, and no fish. All the toys were in pretty rainbow colors, although color didn't really matter. The toys came the same day Bouche did. I pulled this kitten - sized teddy bear out of the bag for her to snuggle with. It had on a gay pride t-shirt. It was only then that I realized I'd bought the gay pride pack of toys. It had honestly not occurred to me why they were all rainbow colors. It's ok, though. Bouche is an equal-opportunity pouncer.

    Shucks. I think I need a chaotically autonomous creature in my life right now. All I have is a myopic void-gazing beagle blep whose first obsession is food, next is thorough massage, then the evacuation of bowels and bladder, then sometimes he'll be all like... 'You seem down. You okaysies?' and snuggle. I need a li'l panther who doesn't give a dang and has sparks of intelligence in his eyes...and will find his own stuff to do.

    Try *carefully* the large band-aids. The actual nip should be covered with the *non* sticky part.... It might not be right for you. When it is time to remove, use vaseline or cooking oil to loosen the edges of the sticky part.

    Add "infinite list of school assignments you need to make up." I'm sick now and I'm scared of going back to school after missing a week. I think I'm failing 4 classes now

    Personally I love my birthday, but only because I'm still young enough that people get me cool stuff that I actually like. Shoutout to my big bro for getting me whatever I ask for, plus other stuff I never knew I needed!

    I tried this, all that happened was that I woke up sick, without the ability to breathe out of my nose

    Two great queer fantasy recommendations: So This is Ever After, and Girls of Paper and Fire. I loved both these books, but check the trigger warnings for Girls of Paper and Fire before you read it.

    I'm not homophbic, but adding gay characters just for the sake of them being gay doesn't make a movie any better

    I want to deny this, but I can't. It's true.
