Selkie is recalling this this conversation. – – – – – I feel like it’s been awhile since I had a Fan Art update, so really glad to see this lovely (and sad) drawing by Jade Griffin in my inbox[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
My original drafts had Selkie give Amanda a dismissive flip of her hand when Amanda told her not to blame her. Excised it for space constraints, so just imagine a dismissive wave of her webs.
On the comic’s anniversary’s I have a tradition of drawing Selkie at the age of the comic as a bonus sketch. A bit belated, but here is Selkie Year 3. 😀
I think that this Saturday will be a bonus Sketch Saturday because I owe myself the traditional anniversary Toddler Selkie sketch that I forgot about last Friday. So, come back Saturday for toddler Selkie. 😀 Also I will say this[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
This was originally going to be a Friday strip for cliffhanger purposes, but holding this strip out for Friday required my Wednesday strip to be full of fluff and non-essentials. It was basically a full page of Mina and the Principal bickering. I think this page offers enough of that to get the point across.
It’s been awhile since we’ve seen these characters. The man is Principal John Ashton, and the woman reading some sort of pirate-themed novel (again) is the secretary, Lisa Miazelli. The Nurse’s Station is attached to their offices, which was also[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
God help you if you interrupt Lisa during the swashbuckling denouement.
Just a heads up, I am switching to overnight shifts at work starting middle of next week. I don’t forsee any alterations to the comic’s schedule, but wanted to say something just in case a transitionary hiccup occurs.
Speaking Selkie's slurred-speech aloud is kind of wrongly fun.
And back to the subject at hand. – – – – – Guys, I like you too much to make up stories. The backgrounds are a bit phoned-in because I’ve made some iffy time-management decisions today. I’m tired and going[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
I can't decide if Todd has racked up enough goodwill at work to just traipse out on a moments notice like that, or if his supervisor Bill is just that much of a laid-back boss.
“That panda looks like an ocelot.” “Oh my bad. It IS an ocelot.” – – – – – While we’re here, I want to talk about Chanelle for a moment. As the snowball fight portion of the arc drew to[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
While out of town last week I carried my nine year old cousin in my arms up three flights of stairs to put her properly to bed. Having carried a kid Selkie's age and build that far in real life, I now find myself wondering if Jessie secretly works out.
Happy Belated Friday! I’ve already got Monday’s comic underway, shouldn’t be a delay. The issue of GPS tags for child safety is something I am going to invoke “character opinions are not necessarily those of the author” for. I feel[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
When I was first drafting Mina, I wanted to make sure I got an authentic name, so I turned to Wikipedia for name ideas. I settled on a combination of real-world writers/human rights advocates Mina Assadi and Mahnaz Afkhami. I turned to the same list today for a name for Mina's daughter (Who I don't THINK I've named yet, but if I have I'm retconning it. XD), and chose to name her after Goli Ameri, President for the Center for Global Engagement.
