August 1st, 2025 Somebody turned nine years old today and I’ll give you one guess. I’ve expressed my love for Marvel in countless ways over the years; she’s been there for me for a quarter of my life, and through some of my hardest times: getting sober, losing my job during the pandemic and thenContinue reading “Guess Who’s Nine?!”

Flow Review
December 17th, 2024 As much as I like to participate in the popular culture conversation (and, boy, do I ever), I also like to highlight stuff that you would probably miss otherwise. Even though it’s been the talk of the animation world, collecting awards and getting nominated for a Golden Globe, most people I’ve talkedContinue reading “Flow Review”
Semester I
December 15th, 2024 Last night, I submitted my last project of the semester. I just did a semester of college! That’s one down, this time around. So: what did I learn? Turns out: a hell of a lot. College did not radicalize me, or even re-radicalize me. I have actually been rad most of myContinue reading “Semester I”
Theia: Stuck In The Middle With You
September 16th, 2023 I get asked a lot if I have any secrets for how to finish writing a book. My secret has been shared so many times that it’s gossip at this point: I have to know how it ends. If you had to run a marathon, but no one told you where theContinue reading “Theia: Stuck In The Middle With You”
Theia: Bittersweet Symphony
September 10th, 2023 I cried a lot for Theia. Like, an obnoxious amount. I always tell people that if you want someone to feel something in your art, you should feel that way while you’re making it. And I do. Arguably, too much. Look, if you don’t want to feel sad today, I recommend maybeContinue reading “Theia: Bittersweet Symphony”
Theia: Tainted Love
September 5th, 2023 Have you ever wanted to run away? Since I can remember, my natural instinct in any situation is to get away from it as fast and as far as I can. This is still true. Over the years, I’ve had to train myself how to stay. And this is where the storyContinue reading “Theia: Tainted Love”
SKP 2023: Theia
September 1st, 2023 “She was a dog with an imagination, which made her the most dangerous kind of all.” How did a novella I wrote in less than a week while unemployed over the summer during the worst year of my life (just days before it became the worst year of my life) become oneContinue reading “SKP 2023: Theia”
“Faribault famous”
August 2nd, 2023 I did a neat thing last week and it’s out today: the Faribault Daily News published a feature on me + my life + my work! You can check it out on their website at faribault dot com and of course I have some behind-the-scenes tea for you! – Pam and IContinue reading ““Faribault famous””
Puss in Boots: The Last Wish Review
March 11th, 2023 My interest started when the reviews were strangely good. Then it was massively popular. Then it got nominated for a ton of awards, while the animation industry buzzed, crowed, and purred about it, too. Then my friends swore by its brilliance. And then Peacock added it to their library today. Puss inContinue reading “Puss in Boots: The Last Wish Review”
thx
January 12th, 2023 Hi. Marvel and I just wanted to thank everyone who reached out to us this week. It’s been a challenging one. I can’t even imagine going through something like this alone, because I was anything but: from all the family and friends who offered kind words and support, to co-workers who letContinue reading “thx”
