Reading the Dragon Ball Manga has clarified so many things for me in regards to its legacy, its choices, and its storytelling. It also proves that people DO want plot-first writing. This may be obvious, but the idea was anathema in my creative writing programs.

Reading Dragon Ball and *BING* I now understand the power of the 13 page perpetual cliffhanger. It's a hard drug.

Frogby Shop launches TOMORROW! The first opportunity to buy a frog will be given to newsletter subscribers and then after that I will open up the shop for everyone and share it on social media. Frogs will range in price from $25-$150 and will ship to the US only for now. Here's the first newsletter!

It might a little older than middle grade, but it's the most recent thing I have. I can draw for younger if needed. Let me know if you want to see more, I'd be happy to sketch some anthro characters.

With every issue of Amazing Spider-Man I become more and more enamored with Ditko’s work. He’s genuinely got great range, including hilarious panels like this.

Optimus Prime was Convoy in Japan. They could be Convoy and (as suggested here) Cargo, brothers! And Cargo should be a Diesel addict who always disappears when trouble is brewing to suck on a hose, which explains why we never see Optimus's trailer when he transforms.

This one is old but not old enough to be included in the Nerd Inferno omnibus. The saddest thing about it is that it isn't just for freelancers anymore. Good luck to us all.
A four-panel comic called Cartooning Benefits Package, which depicts a shower as vacation time, a failing go fund me as health insurance, and death as retirement. Your cartoonist mileage may vary. Also works for the arts and freelancing in general, and, these days, working life in general.

TTRPG reality is: It's hard for people to imagine together. This is why playing in trope heavy worlds (sword and sorcery) or licensed games is so ubiquitous. If the GM and the players are all picturing different realities, it doesn't work.

I miss the days when the answer to not getting a big license was to hand the concept over to Jack Kirby and have him make something 10 times better than an adaptation would have been.

Kirby never got co-plotting credit. Ditko demanded and got plotting credit, and Stan refused to speak to him thereafter. Kirby asked for proper credit and settled for non-specific credits like these.
A FANTASTIC FOUR credits box, reading:

"Welcome to the grandeur that is Marvel, proudly produced by STAN (The Man) LEE and JACK (King) KIRBY / Embellishment: JOE SINNOTT Lettering: Sam Rosen"

The last time I tried to draw anything, I was 16. That was 27 years ago. I've always wanted to learn to draw. So in transparency, I'm embracing sketching things. I am definitely struggling through it, but I'm also proud of doing a thing I've wanted to do for decades. So here's to something new.

Anyone can make TTRPGs. The barrier to entry is people’s perspectives of success that are encouraged through capitalistic, predatory practices.

So I think the thing you want do is, you get Jose Molina and/or Jane Espenson, Diane Ruggiero-Wright, Tim Minear or I dunno, Rob Thomas and Ted Griffin, or whoever you think would be the absolute best writing team for a FIREFLY revival all together and you say... "Create us a new show."
