The Day Jason Asked Me to Guest-Edit This Site (Comic)

A journal entry from last month. I was hoping it would be more interesting, but I’m just going to keep throwing things up here and seeing what happens.

So beautiful… love that you journal through cartoons. (And hope you do buy the hairpin… feels right that you’d have it in your pocket to pull out and play with again.)

Andrew Blackwell

I love this -- your entire guest-editorship could be these and it would be a grand slam. (It's going to be embarrassing for Jason when he gets back and everyone notices how he never draws his entries ;)

Really interested in knowing more about your writing/journaling/drawing process and practice!

Loving your posts so far!

This one made me pull down an old journal and write a five-panel diary entry. I’d never done that before, comics-style journaling; it was slow and nice.

I love to hear this!!

if Jason doesn't keep the cartoon journaling then he's making a huge mistake
