Long year led to creative burnout. But you got to keep moving even if you are creating for personal satisfaction. Kuretake watercolors. Created at Hugo House for October issue of Dune issue 95. You have 3-4 hours to write/create a comic or illustration and turn it in to be included in the next zine.

Sometimes you don't feel inspired or into drawing that day. Went out to Ballard Sketch Team on Tuesday and made myself commit to some output. This rough and imperfect thing was the result.

Playing D&D with the Wednesday night crew. The battle at the old mill against the Spider Gang. Terrain is @dwarvenforge.bsky.social but customer paints. Nice to have some time to laugh and relax with friends in this world that falling apart. Keeping some community alive.

Grey Cat Lost from Dune 93 created at Hugo House in Aug. Suicide is difficult topic. Society has a tough time talking about it. We barely talk about death. She loved Seattle and seemed fitting to include in Dune. Which is a very Seattle entity. She could be part of this city and its longer memory.

Been down a bit and offline due to death in the family and other calamities. But going through my emails today came across the shout out for supporting on the Insert Name Zine festival on Kickstarter. Made the day a little brighter.

Rewatched Jaws. Younger reviewers: why are these drunk angry white men killing this shark? They overfished its waters and it will go away if people just closed the beaches. the protagonists: scientist from old money, a cop, and toxic drunk. I can see why they say “I was hoping for a happy ending”
