Super into the inks on this comic… about 1/3 done. Gonna be out for Thought Bubble!
A close up of a page of comics, inked with clean outlines. It shows a cartoon character having a chaotic morning, waking up late and getting ready for work.
As the saying goes “you can’t make an omelette without really fucking em up good”
That’s my new comic pencilled then! It’s about getting a killer new hobby 👀
A photo of my ipad on my desk. The screen is open on a folder of lots of pencilled comic pages. The title of the folder reads “My New Hobby Craves Violence”

A photo of my stall covered in zines, comics and prints. I’ve collaged in a photo of my kneeling and praying plus lots of pictures of my cat.
Thrift Goblin…. Because I’ll be gobblin up the weirdest second hand treasures at the charity shop.
A colourful busy illustration full of anthropomorphic objects surrounding a little lady holding a painting of a castle. The central text says “THRIFT GOBLIN”. Cartoon objects include a slightly angry teapot, keen jumper guy, content silver spoon, cursed mirror, insanely happy globe, winking seashell chair, sinister occult book and a lamp with boots on.
Sometimes your car gets so sick, only Enya can save you…
(and a good mechanic of course)

From my latest page of diary comics!
Comic-style cartoon illustration, with the title “CAR SICK” in a green bubble at the top. Underneath is the text “This month my car had to go to the garage”, with a drawing of a poorly looking hatchback underneath, and a mechanic next to it saying “I, uh, dunno… something bad is going on in there” Second panel of the car sick comic - a bubble of text reads “I should’ve known something was wrong when a weird drive over the Pennines stressed me out so much I had to put some Enya on”. Plus a drawing of me looking sweaty and anxious as hell in the drivers seat of a car, with the footnote “only Caribbean Blue can save me now”
So nice to see you! Hope you had a good afternoon nap 💤

Zine Me Up is reprinted and back in stock! Featuring the almost impossible Worfseach in Klingon kriski.etsy.com
My hand holding three Star Trek fanzines I made. The cover features a cosmic illustration of The Enterprise-D spaceship, plus illustrations of Worf, Picard, Guinan, Troi, Data and Geordi. The zine title reads “Zine Me Up” An interior page from the zine, featuring a wordsearch in Klingon. It looks impossible because it almost is, but the answers are at the back it’s ok. Worf encouraged you to hunt down the words like a warrior. The page title is WORFSEARCH.
Hot news: I’m entering the washi tape game. Prepare thyself for stationery sensations.
Truly, it’s a thrilling time for office gadgets
Got a label maker, made some labels. My apologies, cat approved labels.
Groan. I wanted dinner party bork fest!
Omg! “People are why executives get ulcers”??!?! WHAT
You play as a dinner party guest, collecting hors d’oeuvres while trying to avoid inflaming your gastric sores and ruining the party (thus losing the game)
It this the most intriguing board game you’ve ever seen?

What is the premise and object of the game? All answers welcome.
A display cabinet full of vintage board games and memorabilia. The main board game is called “ULCERS” - the box is bright pink, with mid-century illustrations of different people in frames on it.
Yeah, I got one every day for a week too. Just sloppy AI compliments and then some scam to join. A new age of spam emails has dawned
Baddies love books 📚 recent illustration work that I’m kinda obsessed with 👀 💕
An illustration of a cool lady standing by a big bookcase. She’s wearing a rad outfit and big boots, reading a book. The bookcase is crammed full of books, zines, comics, scrolls and papers. It’s got an inky, comics aesthetic.
