A smaller little comic I made based off of this fic by @swaps55. Even if you don't know the rest of the fanfiction series, it's worth reading. It's so 🥰

Sam Shepard’s final work, ''A Spy of the First Person'', was posthumously launched at St. Ann’s Church in Brooklyn, where Patti Smith read from the book, honoring their friendship. Known for his Pulitzer Prize-winning plays like *Buried Child*, Shepard also crafted genre-defying prose, blending memoir, fiction, and myth. *A Spy of the First Person* reflects on death, memory, and change, encapsulating themes of Shepard’s life’s work. His passing in 2017 marked the end of an era for American literature.

“I had a definite sense of somehow being a passenger in an evil vehicle crusing through Paradise.” ― Sam Shepard, Cruising Paradise

“Look it - you start out as an artist, I started out when I was nineteen, and you’re full of defenses. You have all of this stuff to prove. You have all of these shields in front of you. All your weapons are out. It’s like you’re going into battle. You can accomplish a certain amount that way. But then you get to a point where you say, “But there’s this whole other territory I’m leaving out.” And that territory becomes more important as you grow older. You begin to see that you leave out so much when you go to battle with the shield and all the rest of it. You have to start including that other side or die a horrible death as an artist with your shield stuck on the front of your face forever. You can’t grow that way. And I don’t think you can grow as a person that way, either. There just comes a point when you have to relinquish some of that and risk becoming more open to the vulnerable side, which I think is the female side. It’s much more courageous than the male side.” ― Sam Shepard
