hello, I'm a bit of a new-ish fan of your work (which may I say is ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS!!!).

I love comic books, and I can sense that your work is in a vintage comic book style, which I find reeeally cool about.

so I just wanna ask... how do you write and create comic strips like the ones you post on tumblr? i know it's vague, but if you can summarise it the best you can, it would be greatly appreciated.

hope I'm finding you well, and here's a cookie for your troubles:

Hello and thank you!(I want that cookie SO BAD.)

So how I do it, is an idea pops in my head, usually just one or two scene, and I’ll sketch it out. As I’m drawing, I let my mind kind of blabber on while I get the lines down and by the time I’m done, I’ll have a very basic story blooming.

And that’s pretty much it! I zone out and let my mind go where it wants to and it usually gives me the ingredients for some GOOD SOUP.

The year is 3027. The world has lost much, but gained more. And some still remember one of the most tragic defeats of the Plague Years…. The fall of the great paradise of Souppe Lantation. It was a place where people came and went like an ever-circling tide. Liminality and community and peaceful, warm solitude.

Travelers, locals, friends, loners, salad-lovers and dessert-lovers, the great enemy nations of Pizza pizza and Pineapple pizza. All found a place to love here. They say there was an entire front hallway of fantastical salad, beautifully badly designed tomato-patterned furniture, a steaming counter made of shiny metal that held pits of soup, a table where focaccia pizza was eaten and replaced in short order by a new plate, like a magic cornucopia of legend… a table of desserts adults told children not to eat too many of, but were happily accessible… an entire mechanical compartment devoted to seasonal “ice creams”…. A large soda fountain, where you could mix and match preferred flavors and refill your cup into eternity, like you were Ponce De Leon glugging the water of a cherry-flavored fountain of youth….. an entire serving table dedicated to baked potatoes, a subject of humorous ritual devotion for many years… and most blessedly, a clean bathroom.

It mattered not from whence you came or where you headed. This place with its electric lights tinted the warmth of a cozy hearth, its plush yet stiff booths, occasionally a patio, food to pillow your stomach beyond hunger & thirst’s wildest dreams and desires… a strange sense of solitude and community. Of artificiality made human-like and tangible by the tradition and community of sharing a table in a place where you were feeling good. Like the fleeting rays of sun as they wash through a window, patterned so that it reflects dough-scented prisms of memory.

A true paradise, a self-contradiction in impermanence and lasting memory, the truly cold inauthenticity of business and the authenticity of the people that try their hardest to make the most of life despite all the bad in the world, with family dinners and a “have an amazing day” and a buzz of chatter and laughter and the clatter of forks. A constructed fakeness of a place and idea and the subsequent real emotion & joy of the people and things that fill it, flesh it out. It feels like stories and laughs at a table. Warm soup that matches warm comforting lighting. Trying not to fall asleep in a booth from the coziness and comfort of the company of family or happy strangers the next table over. Being surrounded by one of the oldest facets of humanity like a warm, snugly-fitting sweater: community and comfort, whether material or immaterial.

Exploring Non-Linear Narratives: Writing Out of Sequence

In the realm of storytelling, the traditional sequence is but one path to follow, a well-trodden road where events unfurl one after another, much like dominos carefully aligned, ready to fall. Yet, in the shadows, there exists another path, a web of narratives intertwined, where each word, each sentence, is a piece of a puzzle not yet complete. This exploration seeks to dissect the notions of…
