An arrow trope image where several elements point to a central cover. The cover features a masc person and a child stand in a city street with their back to the viewer. The child is pointing towards a flock of birds swooping through the sky. The entire cover is in tones of blue, and it is clearly set in winter.

おっす! I'm Kody, and being trans is interwoven in every aspect of my life and work. I make KEEPING TIME, a longform webcomic about two (cis) guys who, after years of estrangement reunite, start a band, and - for better or worse - fall in love. 🎸 keepingtimecomic.com #TransDayOfVisibility

Photo of a Japanese dude smiling. His hair is fluffy, aspiring to Takahashi Ran's level of casual floof

A comic panel that's a worm's eye view comic panel of someone on a skateboard in a south Chicago neighborhood in winter. We can see the bottom of their board and their shoes, and slush on the street. The caption reads, "Then."

Part of a comic page from the webcomic KEEPING TIME.

Panel 1: A close up of Stef, the bassist, his eyes closed beneath his baseball cap. Stark, evenly spaced together lines of music denote the even strumming of his bass guitar.

Panel 2: Denver plays a chord far up the neck of his Gibson Les Paul, frowning slightly. The lines symbolizing his music swing wildly from high to low.

Panel 3: Finally, the drummer, is grinning as he plays the drums, his music lines broken up in a staccato pattern. Beneath all his scruffy beard stubble, his giant grin is wide enough to make up for how neither of his bandmates weren't smiling at all.

A panel from the webcomic KEEPING TIME. In the foreground, a blond punk with a neck tattoo lifts the lid of a dumpster, while two figures stand behind him. He says, "Oh. I mean, I dropped in on the pizza place next door for a slice, too."

Today, What Wakes the Bells, my debut novel, is unleashed upon the world!

It’s wild I can say that. Especially since this book has been mine for a long time. I got the idea in 2019, wrote the first draft in 2020, sold it to F&F in 2022, and now it’s not really mine anymore.

It’s a book I wish I had for myself as a teen but it also helped me figure out who I am as an adult. What Wakes the Bells won’t be for everyone, but for some it will be everything.

And that’s enough for me.
