This is a little place for me to talk about whatever I feel like! Maybe explaining bits of my process, maybe rambling about my favorite things. Something like a newsletter or a blog, but a little more Free.

Please Be My Star is out in the world now! Yay! It’s so funny, I’ve been making comics for over 10 years, but this is my “debut” in fiction. In a lot of ways, though, I appreciate it taking this long. I feel a lot more confident in the kinds of stories I want to tell and how I want to tell them. It feels satisfying to have it all crystallized in Please Be My Star.
The biggest adjustment after writing a long-form webcomic for years and then non-fiction comics after that was how to tell a story in roughly 200 pages. It doesn’t help that a lot of my inspirations are from episodic storytelling like webtoons, monthly manga, and dramas. I was kinda like “what the hell?! how do I do this???”

I’ve been back at the drawing table! Lately, I’ve been working on a new project, and though I’ve been working at an exhausting pace (. . .or maybe doing too much in April. . .), I am loving it so, so much.
For some reason, I got it in my head to compare art from this new project with some art from 10 years ago.

Hi! Welcome to my first freetalk!
Honestly, thank you for wandering over to this part of the site to read my ramblings. As I was building this site, I kept thinking “I want a blog…but like…not a blog…” HAHA. I don’t really feel comfortable teaching or writing tutorials! And I hate rigid structures or scheduling to these kinds of these things!! I’m busy making my comics!!! It takes all my time!!
But god. I LOVE rambling.
