Chapter:

This short revisits the eccentric upscale shoe store C’Est La Feet. Panel 1 gives me nightmares you guys, not even gonna lie. Don’t forget this week hosts a Sketch Day Saturday, so pop in on Saturday for a bonus sketch.[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…

I almost made Annabeth's dialogue in the last panel the chorus to "All About the Benjamins".

Here is the first of the Reader Requested Short week. This is a request asking how some of the background kids that were adopted are doing. I thought right away of Mark and Martina, but while looking through the archives[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…

At some point years in the past, I conceived of a comic strip idea featuring college-attending housemates. I never got it off the ground but the characters still pop in my head from time to time. I decided to use them for the polygamous quintet. Their names are Tarah (holding the pizzas), Sammy (Doing tai chi in the corner), and Corwynn and Brad have Maven on their laps.

I planted a lot of little clues to this over the strip’s run so far. Some of it may be overly-subtle, some of it seemed so blatant at the time that I thought I had tipped my hand too early.[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…

My original plan was to refrain from identifying the child until much MUCH later. After thinking about it more than I care to admit, I decided the information felt appropriate right here.

Chapter:

The Costume Design Contest was a smash! There were 10 great entries to choose from, but in the end I could only pick one winner. The winning design was sent by Somogyi. Congrats! I’ll be using your outfit on Selkie[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…

The idea for the graphic speech bubbles came to me after a very weird dream.

Chapter:

It’s probably clear by implication, but if you don’t recognize the guy with the floppy blue mohawk, this old strip may help you. I am accepting submissions for the Costume Design contest until April 1st! If you have not yet[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…

Remember when I said I was both excited and apprehensive about this epilogue... yeeeaaaahhh...

Chapter:

A brief epilogue to the previous events. Also quite possibly the sparsest dialogue I have yet written. XD – – – – – For those that missed it on Thursday, I am currently holding a Costume Design contest. The idea[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…

This epilogue takes place shortly after Andi left Todd's apartment. Should provide some answers to those wondering what is up with Andi. For those that despise her... sorry. :D

Got a lot to talk about today. I’d like to first open up with a new piece of Fan Art I received yesterday, courtesy of Fantastibad’s Craig Olsen: Thanks, Craig! And now, on to a few topics I wish to[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…

Decided to switch to a smaller font to avoid crowded speech bubbles that make Selkie appear to be growing a tail. ;P Hopefully it isn't too small.

Chapter:

Eight year olds and awkward questions are kind of like peanut butter and jelly: fun yet sticky. …I dunno what that’s supposed to mean. XD

Thought I'd try the old flat/vector background style again. Looks kind of awkward after all the drawn stuff in the last few pages. honestly. Also, I just realized I only drew one sheet of paper for three assessments... doh.

Chapter:

I feel like the assessment exams are like something from Ender’s Game: a test you aren’t expected to pass.

Mina's dialogue in the last four panels was originally a lot more verbose, but I had to cram it in legibly. XD

Chapter:

I got a couple things to mention today. The first is Comic Mix March Madness. I stumbled on this from some of the other webcomics I read, and I noticed a couple people in the comments section volunteered Selkie for[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…

I may re-draw Barbara's pose in the second-to-last panel later. Really unhappy with it.
