June 9th, 2025 The internet has done a really good job of making us feel really bad about the state of society and I’m going to try to simplify why while offering, I hope, a little sip of hope. There is one undeniable fact about any comment section on any social media page: It lowersContinue reading “Comments on the Comment Section”

SpringCon 2025
June 7th, 2025 Another SpringCon is in the books and I just wanted to give my gratitude to all the organizers, volunteers, attendees, and my fellow writers, artists, and vendors. You all are the best and I’m not just saying that; you’re kind, inspiring, and annoyingly talented. I took basically no photos today and that’sContinue reading “SpringCon 2025”

Darkroom
May 31st, 2025 I’ve been wondering why life has felt so chaotic and fast lately and then realized I wasn’t writing much of it down. Not here. I haven’t been processing correctly. Instead of developing my memories and experiences in a quiet darkroom, investigating their details and exploring their mysteries as they slowly materialize, I’veContinue reading “Darkroom”
Higher, Further, Faster
May 23rd, 2025 My spring semester (and first official full school year) ended on Monday. I did it. I took six classes this semester (the most I will ever have to take) and still somehow managed to maintain a 4.0 GPA. That’s pretty cool. But that’s not even what I’m most proud of. I wroteContinue reading “Higher, Further, Faster”
Weirdos Art Show!
May 10th, 2025 All my love to everyone who came to the Weirdos Art Show today. I had a lovely time. As an artist, I’ve always asked myself: could I fill a room? I was pleasantly surprised by the answers I found. I appreciate the shared coffee, baked goods and excellent conversation, and if weContinue reading “Weirdos Art Show!”

Confidence & Perspective
May 7th, 2025 Howdy, y’all. I have an art gallery this weekend at Mind’s Eye Comics in the Burnsville Center that you should totally check out; you should also check out this video where I talk about confidence (and the lack of it), perspective as we grow, and how my gallery is a fight againstContinue reading “Confidence & Perspective”
This Is 40
May 1st, 2025 It’s my birthday today. I love my birthday. I’m awful like that. I also believe that you should cherish celebrating each one, because there will come a point in time when you cannot. That’s dark, but it’s my birthday. So let’s face facts: I’m supposed to be dead. I did all theContinue reading “This Is 40”
We Trained For This: Clarifying My Disappointment
April 19th, 2025 My book Theia is a proud part of a long lineage of literature that uses animals to speak truth about ourselves. Two of its biggest influences are two of my favorite books: Watership Down and Animal Farm. Due to the current state of our nation, I recently bought myself a new copyContinue reading “We Trained For This: Clarifying My Disappointment”
