Some character designs with some…atypical color choices? I guess. I don’t know what’s going on in that area.
This is Nimona and her supervillain friend (He doesn’t have a name yet, I’m working on that). Nimona is his sidekick/squire, they’re like the Batman and Robin of slightly Medieval villains, but she’s actually way more evil than him. He does what he does to make a point, and he doesn’t really want anyone get hurt - Nimona just gets a kick out of destroying stuff.
I’m going to attempt to make a two page comic with them? We’ll see how this goes.

The point of public transit is that it serves as a public service. Public services should be free and paid for by government fully. The over reliance on fare revenues is one of the key factors in the poor Maintenance and reliability on our systems. Public transit like Metros, Light rails, Trams, Busses and Commuter rails should be free and we shouldn’t arrest people for fare evasion
Folks, I’m hearing that the Kids Online Safety Act is back on the agenda. The Senate is holding a hearing with tech CEOs tomorrow, in an effort to get this bill on the Senate floor.
Time to give your Senators another call and tell them this bill would silence LGBTQIA+ people online.
That is actually a complicated question! I had written some fragments of novels when I was starting out, but my first completed novel was published! Choir Boy came out in 2005 and won a Lambda Literary Award. Then… I wrote *four more novels* that never got published. One of those four, I later edited down to a novella and revised heavily, so it became “Rock Manning Goes For Broke” (which is in my short story collection Even Greater Mistakes.) The other three still have not seen the light of day: a historical novel set in 1993, a portal fantasy novel, and an urban fantasy novel along the lines of Seanan McGuire’s October Daye novels. I have made some stabs at turning the urban fantasy novel into a novella the same way I did “Rock Manning,” but haven’t quite gotten it yet. Also, after I won the Lambda Literary Award, I got a really amazing literary agent, who tried so hard to sell my historical novel, and then eventually dropped me as a client. Took me several years to get another agent. tl;dr: Every career has setbacks.
Please tell me you did not just use the words “historical novel set in 1993.”
1993 is ye olden times now, Sean. Her historical novel is set in the late 1900s.
To your point, if Back to the Future were shot today, they’d be traveling back to 1994. 😑
