Writer's Troubles



I do this all the time. I'm surprised I'm not nicknamed "Zombie," I've lost so much sleep to my writing.



Writer's angst. I'm an aspiring Sci Fi/Sci Fi political satire writer, so I tend to start writing, think, "Man, this is really cool," and then I start to think, "Wait. This is complete fiction. Why is it important?" And then I go on a wild downswing emotionally. (All authors are bipolar.) This comic was meant to parody that.



And this one was simply about the interplay of Anne and Ava's wildly different personalities.

 Again. . . sorry about missing days. If anyone's even reading this. (Anyone who is, please signal as such in the comments section. . .

Introducing Rachel! And Other Comics

This is the first appearance of Rachel Bucket (no, I'm not kidding) in TSA. She was my attempt to write a Christian character, although she was originally from a failed post apocalyptic (also not kidding). It never even got a word written down, and that was mostly what channeled into her character as a TSA cast member. The original line was, "NEVER say that to a Christian!!!" Like Ava's intro comic, it's a religious gag and I wrote a second (third?) copy because I crammed a ton of words into the third panel and then doubted they were legible. Here it is. . . Can you read that one better? I hope so. It's about like any other comic I drew after I got bigger panels. (Thank goodness. I can't write that tiny anymore.) Unlike Ava's intro, this is something I do. Not in front of other people, but, if you are for some reason  into reading books of conspiracy theories about how the world is going to end next Wednesday, it is really good for you
