  • First panel of first page of new comic

    This is the fist panel of the first page of a new work that has no current title. It’s a near future cyberpunk soap opera set in the fictional world of Ogash, California. It is loosely based on dreams that I’ve had from my dream journal, and it has to do with a dystopian future…

  • My medication for schizoaffective disorder

    I have to take medication for my schizoaffective disorder or else see and hear things that aren’t there and have delusions. I really hate to say it, because the medication is a bitter pill to swallow, figuratively and literally, but it does help me get out of distress. Medication is one of those facts of…

I’m going to be working on this site frequently, but little has been done so far. I have links to all the social media pages done, so you can check those and follow those if…
