I can’t believe it’s almost FEBRUARY. This month has felt like a lost month to me, though I’m not sure I could pinpoint any one reason why. Some was a lack of serious writing projects moving forward at the rate I would have liked (though there WAS some movement). Some was illness/snow day disruptions/family commitments. Some was just the general dazed horror of the news.
But there have been some fun things, too! Like the Snowman Saga playing out in our backyard, or getting to do another pedal design, or writing a brand new, gory but goofy horror story, which felt absolutely stellar. I’m finding that while jumping between a lot of different projects is really good for keeping my creative energy up (and therefore very necessary), writing is the one creative thing I always come back to, and the one thing that turns me into an absolute beast when I don’t get enough time to do it. That said, one of my happiest achievements this month has been doing a LOT of daily drawing and comic playing, which is also near and dear to my heart.
So leading into February, here are some of my favorites:
Hi Maggie, great to hear from you. Looks like you haven’t done nothing at all these past weeks. Love your comic pages, and the humour. Should be more of it I say!
