Outstanding! (on both counts). Long coats AND bookshelves, this just keeps sounding better and better.
I haven't worked in comics in years... do I still qualify for the Comic Book Baking Club? Embarking on an apple pie tonight (King Arthur Flour FTW!). Also really looking forward to Project Park Bench. As you know I'm always a sucker for (a) your art and (b) Magical Folks in Long Coats.

Remember, folks: "Frontlist pays the dopamine; backlist pays the mortgage." - @kristadb1.bsky.social So I invite you once again to tell me about a book from your backlist (published two or more years ago). I'll RT. Tell us why you love it or what it's about or something. And LINK to it!

He didn't make it easy for them. In the '70s I worked for an ad agency that had KFC as a client. When shooting KFC commercials, "mascot' Harlan would do all sorts of shit to undermine the shoot, forcing multiple retakes. I couldn't help but admire his inventiveness and determination.
Just learned that Katherine Spada Basto died last week. Kathy was a good friend and a client who won multiple awards for her young women's historical fiction. As of last month we thought she was in remission, and she was just finishing her latest book. Fuck cancer. katherinespadabasto.com
I'm all for self care for writers, so by all means drop the blog if you need to. However, FWIW, with the nasty shitshow that's happening all around us, reading your blog is one of the bright spots in my day. Thanks for providing that.
