Just a bit of doom-scrolling through tech bro shenanigans and world news, weaving and dodging AI slop, bad takes, hideous opinions….and by a bit I mean a lot.
Am I right!?
Thank goodness for besties to help ground me back in the real world. If you’ve been overdoing it on all the horrors the internet has to offer - I recommend giving your bestie a call. A real person. A real voice. Go meet up. Take a breath.
Onwards!
Doodle
Still creating for my fairytale series this month! Using fairytales as an excuse to work on lighting and backgrounds and its been a lot of fun so far. Here’s Jack and the Beanstalk, because GIANTS! Who doesn’t love giants?
I also worked on a phone wallpaper for paid subscribers this month that leans into my obsession with giants :)
What I’m Working On
I was so excited to get invited to talk expressions on
‘s Introvert Drawing Club! ICYMI here’s the post!My copies of Cheat Code arrived in the mail this week and I am so happy with how it looks! Can’t wait for readers to meet Max and Scribe!
I thought, since we’re drawing fairytales this month, it might be easiest to give fairytales their own space in the chat. Hop into the Fairytales Draw Along to see what the Authorstrator community is dreaming up, and drop off a creation of your own!
What I’m Reading
The Southern Book Club’s Guide to Slaying Vampires by Grady Hendrix - recommended to me by one of my besties after I said I’m looking for mom adventures/drama and she delivered. The back cover pitches it as Fried Green Tomatoes meets Dracula so….yep! Let’s do this!
Yeah I avoid it as much as possible. Gives a whole new meaning to "no news is good news".
