The past week has been insane in ways I’d rather not detail, and I just couldn’t get a regular strip out for today. I normally try to announce ahead of time if I need to skip an update or post[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
I saw Despicable Me 2 yesterday and Pacific Rim last week. Pacific Rim was freaking amazing and I highly recommend it. Despicable Me 2 was okay, but I liked the first one better. Oh, and comic.
Todd didn't just say "I'll call Lillian" because his parents haven't ever met the orphanage staff.
The yard sale went great, and my friends are well on their way to seeing their dreams come true. The outpouring of help and aid from their community was astounding. They’ve got a great home to start a family in.[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Very very VERY early in the comic's formation, I had a story arc idea where Selkie stays over at her grandparents, but nobody knew yet about her being carnivorous so they gently coerced her into eating vegetables, she got sick and they all felt very very bad. I pretty much killed the "grandparents don't know she's carnivorous" idea when I realized there was no good reason for that information not to be shared with them, but the base components of that arc became this bit. And as a reader points out in the comments, I actually DID do this bit earlier with the grapes, it just wasn't a "sleepover". So... WOOPS. I slipped up and forgot. XD
Just a reminder, Selkie’s bile is purple. Another reminder, I will be in Quincy Illinois this evening to support my friends. If you can make it out, feel free to say hi! I posted a picture of myself on Monday,[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Grandpa Theo used quite a bit of hair gel to turn his forehead tuft into a mighty horn.
Comic is up! Thanks for your understanding, early risers.
My original intent was to have each individual cell be a different background color, but I didn't think it worked well. Wild background color shifts tend to be more of a memory/dreamscape/emotional reaction thing in Selkie strips, and non of this is imagined.
The last appearance of Giselle, Michael, and Robert. – – – – – Just want to mention this again, but some close friends of mine are running a fundraiser yard sale to raise money for in-vitro fertilization treatments this weekend.[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Sometimes the surprise is jalapenos. Sometimes it's bell peppers, summer squash, or in one horrific incident bubblegum.
“Testicles” is a funnier word than “nuts”, I think. – – – – – So, do I have any readers in or near the area of Quincy, Illinois? Because if so, I’d like to bring an event to your attention.[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
One of these days I need to make a nice big template for that "rabbit-ears" photograph instead of copy-pasting the original one from back in strip 148.
Don’t feel great, tried to get some extra sleep, kept being woken up. Finish the comic later. I love my pets but they need to learn when to stop barking at every stupid squirrel they see out the window. >_<[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Arc OVER! Finally… But the story picks up from here next week, so… not really over! Is anything ever really over, anyway? – – – – – Fan art update! Got two pieces yesterday. First one is from Yorkiejokiegg: And[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Mrs. Trunchbull is named after a literary character who hates lies.
