I started this comic as a challenge to myself to create something new when the rest of my life seemed to be stuck. I try to create things that I enjoy, which means lots of books, cats, spiders, and general coziness. I've been grateful to have a little corner of the internet to put spiders in tea cups and write ghostly proposals.

I started the comic when I was struggling with depression and a couple other things in my life. I hadn't drawn in a long time and I wanted to get back into it, so I thought a comic would be a way to encourage myself.

    I spend about two to three hours a week brainstorming. Oftentimes after I brainstorm I'll send my ideas to a friend to see if it's actually funny. Then finishing the drawing is another 1-2 hours.

    The best part of drawing comics is having a little space to try out jokes and make something. I'm glad that other people enjoy them, too.

    I've been a fan of comics for a long time, so it was always a dream to create something similar. I'd be here all day if I listed all my favorites, but a few of my top ones are JL Westover (Mr. Lovenstein), Chris McCoy (Safely Endangered), Zach Stafford (Extra Fabulous) Sarah Andersen, and Hannah Hillam.

    I hope people enjoy the comic. It's been fun to make, so as long as people keep enjoying it I'll keep making it. It's always great to hear when a comic really hits home. Thanks to everyone who's stopped by.
