Today, Saturday February 27th at 3:00 EST I will be talking & doing a demonstration about keeping a regular diary comics practice as part of Radiator Comics on-line series HANDS ON. In it I will be sharing a lot of my favorite resources and inspirations for keeping a diary comic that I thought I’d share here. You are welcome to join us on zoom–it’s free, but you have to sign up! If you don’t make it in time, don’t worry–the video will be available on YouTube later!

24 Hour Comic Day was last Wednesday. I didn’t have time to draw it in real time so I took notes throughout the day and drew it up later. The comic I was working on that day was for an anthology (coming in the fall!) and I was experimenting with this grid of 20 panels. I liked it so thought I’d try it for this too.
