I've put my BigCartel store back into sleep mode for a bit! My Hivemill still has some copies of Wychwood left, so if you're looking for books, that's the spot for the time being: hivemill.com/collections/...

Abel’s arc reads like a B-plot in a Disney movie.
“Congrats you’ve inherited a traumatized, shitty dog. She hates everyone except for your deadbeat (now just dead) dad and casually kills all the fauna she finds.”
Now he has to grow a spine and actually train her.

Also I'm caught up on commissions (got 2 more to post but they haven't been picked up yet so I'm holding off), so I'm drawing Thancred for myself.

I will be thinking about this on my deathbed

Pilot is one of my go-to pen brands, specifically because their uni-ball vision line (yes, the regular old office supply pen) is waterproof and markerproof and makes a nice satisfying line even on textured paper.
Pilot had a massive ad spread in a jp newspaper with "make AI jealous" and "write what AI can't touch" written on it
Anyway I think everyone should own a Pilot kakuno pen

Shipping to the US is still in an Unfortunate state right now, so some notes:
▪️ Stickers and zines are unaffected, as they ship via letter mail. (Downside is no tracking, alas)
▪️ The graphic novels are pretty pricy to send to the US right now, despite all my efforts to find a better rate.

Got to watch Del Toro's Frankenstein last night and I loved it, I've never seen an adaptation that stayed so true to the book's events and made its themes felt so effectively! Great characterization and imagery.
