Important PSA for females.  Trust me on this.

Do breast self-exams regularly.  Here’s how to do it.

Get mammograms.  Yes, even if you’re young.  Breast cancer doesn’t give a fuck how young you are.  If you don’t have health insurance you can often find clinics that give free mammograms.

If you feel something, get it checked immediately.  It may be nothing.  But it may be something.  And if it’s something, you want it dealt with ASAP.

INTERVIEW WITH THE VAMPIRE | 2.07 I Could Not Prevent It

Harry: That's your only take from all that?!

Return date for my webcomic, Time and Time Again!

It's been set for a while but sometimes they change the date without warning, so I'll keep you updated if anything changes!

I'm extremely proud of the work I've been doing on it, I can't wait to share everything!

See you then!

THE RUMORS ARE TRUE! 

I am fresh off of drawing an entire graphic novel (which will be out in stores Feb 2024 oh boy!) and about to start Kickstarter fulfillment for my other (18+) comic, and NOW I FINALLY CAN GET BACK TO SAKANA. It has been a long few years for everyone. :U

Right now I'm focusing on building a buffer of pages before I decide on an official relaunch date, but there are NEW ACTUAL PAGES IN EXISTENCE AS WE SPEAK. I thought it would be hard to jump back in but turns out when you've done something 600 times already the BODY REMEMBERS.

I don't have a set goal for buffer pages other than "A LOT OF THEM" but I'll be posting them to the $5 tier of my Patreon until I decide on a public relaunch date (hopefully mid summer?) There's already 3 whole real pages up there. Unbelievable.

Anyhoo, thanks to everyone who's been waiting patiently for Jiro Sakana to get his ass in gear!! A whole pandemic has happened (is happening!) since the last update oh my god.

It's good to be back!

You can check out my Patreon here if you're so inclined: https://www.patreon.com/mynameismad

But regular public updates WILL RESUME sometime this summer (if everything goes according to plan) so you'll get to see the pages one way or another!

@nyxdarlin Uh, well, as the gifs show it was Neil Gaiman.

"How was the writers conference?"

As always, based on actual events. Yes, I'm a middle-aged WOC, but Patrick Melrose gifs fit alarmingly well. Just switch sexes in your mind.

My best friend when she learned I'd signed up for yet another 3-day writers conference, "after the ordeal of the last one." (unmute)

DAY 1

Me pretending I can actually afford it when the hotel Reception Desk informed me that because I didn't make a reservation -- LIKE I SHOULD HAVE DONE A MONTH AGO -- my only choice of room is "upgraded," meaning "WAY more expensive."

Talking shop with someone who really doesn't give a fuck.

God bless upgraded-room bathtubs.

First panel is before breakfast with no coffee and what moron thought this was a good idea?

Running into an editor from a periodical who still hasn't paid me for my short story and asking her when can I expect to be paid.

The Fancy Meal with the Movers And Shakers.

Inside joke nobody got.

The ex who isn't even a writer, so WTF was he doing there? (yes, switch sexes).

DAY 2

The lunch to woo a new literary agent.

Her very professional answer.

Those two authors who should: 1. Never drink in public 2. Never attend the same con

The Elephant In the Room nobody was going to talk about, so of course everyone was talking about it.

DAY 3

Manuscript Evaluation: The would-be author who was "open to constructive criticism" but absolutely lied.

Check out time!

And there go the savings!

"And how was the conference?"

THE END

Another gif post about attending a writers conference.

Yes, I adore fancy hotel bathrooms. You should try them some day. And leave a whomping great tip for the housekeeper. I used to be one; I know how hard it is to scrub out those fucking tubs.

Also, don't submit to Cricket Media LLC. The fuckers don't pay.

Also, my literary agent did retire, but the one I spoke with is definitely interested in seeing my novel when it's finished. Another agent also wants to see it. I've given myself the deadline of September 24 to have a readable manuscript completed.

Off to write like a muthafucker now. See ya in September.
