I published 2 speculative poems in 2025!

If you're nominating for the Hugos, I'd love it if you checked out "Beyond the Standard Model," a theoretical physics poem that was in Analog last January:

I don't do these a lot so jump in, I guess it doesn't have to all be about Aquaman but that is the focus after all?

"Oh, you're a comic book artist? Do you draw by hand or do you use a computer?"

Madam, I always draw "by hand" but sometimes I do that on a computer instead of paper.😮‍💨
The number of folks who think drawing digitally means the computer just does it all for you is staggering.
What’s the worst question someone can ask after you tell them your profession? For linguists, it’s definitely “how many languages do you speak?”, but I’m curious what else is happening to the rest of y’all out there?!

You just died.

The 6th picture in your gallery is what killed you.

The run this was taken during very nearly did do me in!

Thinking of fond Helioscope days gone by, and that one time when my old Greyhound, Sally, let @dylanmeconis.bsky.social 's old dog Teddy get this close to her.
To be fair, she *was* stealing his bed, but who's keeping track really?😆

I was supposed to be a veterinarian, but my high school art teacher said it would be a waste of my talent and convinced me to go to art school. I went for 2D animation, but couldn't get any work so @jeffparker.bsky.social said I should do comics. So I did and now look at me, lol!
What’s the lore behind choosing your career path ?

I almost never do plein air painting, but when I do, I make sure it's only on vacation apparently. Here are the two I got around to this year: Eagle Beach in Alaska, and a hotel in Kauai, HI.

If you like a meaningful deep dive, Mike's got you!
Here's an essay years in the making:

In 2019 I decided to run the Dipsea Race because of a movie I saw in 1986. The race got pandemic-delayed. So I started interviewing the people who made the movie — Bruce Dern, Pam Grier, and many others.

The result:
