Just remember, when someone gives you feedback that feels really off base, violence is always the answer.

If I could tell the story in two or three sentences I wouldn't have written a book.

Fructus Seminalis doesn't have words so I feel funny suggesting people "read" it. Let me know if you have a better verb to offer. And read Fructus Seminalis. I keep digital copies free on Gumroad and Global Comix: builtinadaycomic.gumroad.com/l/fs globalcomix.com/c/fructus-se...

Fructus Seminalis is a silent comic about the life and nature of an alien being with a complex "heteromorphic" lifecycle. It emerged from my struggles and meditations on how to have a better relationship with death. Art by Maxim Mel.

I mean... Yeah. Seemed like a fun way to incenticize aggressive play. Maybe too much? I'll have to think of more tournament formats that reward overall winnings.

Hatred and anger are not the same thing, and hatred is not a necessary precursor for change. I don't even think it's helpful. I thought what that woman had to say was beautiful and touching. "No disrespect", but this is a strange high horse to climb onto.

Going down the rabbit hole. The sculptures are incredible. I'm just getting into the logs and whole setting... just wild. I've been putting out indie comics. Historical fiction, sci-fi, and I'm not sure what. ko-fi.com/danloeb I'll be in touch. Need to finish reading your stuff first.

From three different stories: Ash: A full belly and a safe place to sleep. Jacob: A place to be alone. [Unnamed protagonist from Fructus Seminalis]: Many of her adoptive young grew healthy and strong and she is likely to make a tree when she dies, giving rise to many generations of offspring.

Every time I see something that's supposed to be motivational about promoting your books/comics/art, it makes me feel sick. I think I'd rather be obscure and never think about that shit than be a successful "content creator." I love some people who are great at that stuff, not it's not for me.

I hire artists. We work together and create comic books based on the stories and characters I create. That's closer to creating art but I'm no artist, and I respect them enough to acknowledge that. You confused creativity with being spoon fed. No one is preventing you from making art but yourself.

Daniel Loeb @danloeb.bsky.social · 13/11/2025
Asking AI to generate media for you is an of consumption, not creation. If you confused the two, even for a moment, then you know what it feels like to be robbed of your birthright as a human being. Humans create art and in so doing we create ourselves. Don't let yourself be cheated.

Daniel Loeb @danloeb.bsky.social · 13/11/2025
If I commission a work of art, that doesn't make me an artist. It makes me someone who hired an artist. If I do the same thing but delegate the creative act to an unthinking machine, that doesn't bring me closer to being ab artist, but further away. (Cultivating a craft would bring me closer.) 1/2

Using AI generated media for your cover makes your whole book look like churned out slop.

I can't believe I haven't read Bone yet. It looks awesome and two different people told me my first comic "kinda reminded" them of Bone. You'd think that'd be enough. Thanks for the reminder to finally check it out!
