I guess I should clarify that folks have reached out on LinkedIn with incredible love and warmth, and it has moved me so much! but… yall it’s not you. It’s just LinkedIn as a concept. 🙃 ya know?

It’s been an incredible honor working at Abrams, being part of the union effort there, collaborating with comics geniuses. I’m really excited to take those skills and lessons to new adventures on the horizon. So stay in touch, I’m still eagerly making books like the design gremlin I am. ✨

This absolute marathon gave me so many opportunities to work with some of the most brilliant folks out there making books and comics today. I’ve designed Eisner winners, I was recognized this year by the Children’s Book Council for my work in the graphic novel space. I’ve been so lucky.

I shared this on LinkedIn, but… that platform feels cold. So just reiterating here for my comics and book friends— I closed out an important chapter, having worked as the Senior Designer for Graphic Novels at ABRAMS Books since March of 2021. It’s been a long journey that I’ve learned so much on.

The youngest person his pager attack killed was 9-year-old Fatima Abdullah, who had just started 4th grade. The pager was on a table when it went off and she picked it up to take to her dad. It exploded in her face and reports said it covered the room in her blood. She wanted to learn English.

My first manga design project came to my inbox while I was in Japan in 2019. I could have never imagined I’d be holding a copy signed by the author, and still working on the series over 15 volumes later! So grateful!

We’re struggling against capitalism, fascism, AI and the devaluation of our labor by people who do not understand our trade. But we are all ready to fight back & to support each other. Even if it’s just turning around and telling someone “you can buy a replacement eraser for your blackwing pencil.”

Plus, I got to meet people who I only knew via admiring their work from afar, and reconnect with people I’ve worked with, designed books for, and was even taught by!

It’s easy to think that in these times, something like illustration isn’t important, but I’m more certain than ever that making work that is unapologetic and with a strong personal point of view is the most beautiful and human act we can do as artists.

I attended ICON 13 (Illustration Conference) in Baltimore this past week as a Portfolio Reviewer and let me tell you… Illustrators are amazing. Heading home feels like leaving people who uniquely understand your struggles and dreams behind, but being in that stew was ENERGIZING.

Ink sketch of Zachariah Ohora, a man with a salt and pepper beard, large glasses, and a trucker style cap, looking to the side as he speaks, wearing a beaded necklace and a tshirt that trades “LEGALIZE telepathy” with two abstract profiles of people facing each other on it, a beam going from one head to the other

I’m a recipient of the Graphic Novel Advocate award this year alongside Gina Gagliano & Maia Kobabe. I don’t even know how to express what this means to me. It’s astounding how much the format has grown. I feel so fortunate and proud to be even a small part of that shift.

Self-consciousness about your art feels unpleasant, but it means your tastes are growing. Your personal taste as it guides your work is kind of an essential part of being an artist. Practice builds your skills and your point of view! You want to develop the Artist’s Hand *and* the Eye, so to speak.

This needs more attention: Zohran SPLIT the straights with Cuomo. ALL of his margin was from LGBTQ+ voters. Every Dem who ever said “we should abandon the transes” needs this shoved down their fucking throat with a ramrod.

Photo of NBC’s exit poll data (from my work laptop, lol) showing Mamdani splitting the straight vote equally with Cuomo, but taking the LGBTQ+ vote by more than 5:1. Even though the LGBTQ+ slice is only 14% of the population, they were a LANDSLIDE in his favor.

Billy Bat is a comic about the love of comics. (And a thousand other things.) It spans decades and languages and styles, with so many cool details. Brendon and I talked for years about the ways it could be lettered. And swore that we would work together if given the chance. We are so grateful.
