Minimal Effort Therapy

I don't want to go to therapy as much as I want the people around to go to therapy.

I'm sure my life would be easier if other people had more self-awareness, wink-wink. New comic strip and rallying cry.

Drawing Comics Is Never Not Hard

There's no rational explanation - except a sense of chasing relief that may or may not come. All I know is that it's the closest thing to home.

To Disturb the Universe

One of my character flaws is that I can't bring myself to disturb the universe or the dog.

When I'm nursing random aches or pains that seem to come from nowhere, I sometimes wonder if it's related to my heart. New comic about psychosomatic symptoms and what ails us emotionally.

First, thank you to loyal readers and friends who have followed along over the years!

Chocolate Brownie Points

I'm learning some hard and valuable lessons in changing careers and pursuing dreams, not least of which is self-compassion. That has been the most difficult to practice, in the face of personal setbacks, trials and errors on repeat. At times, actual brownies are needed. Cheers everyone trying their best too. (on Ko-fi)
