This is excellent and beautiful all round but especially that last image. Wow. I felt it.
Beautiful! Thank you!
I love this <3
I love this too :) I’ve been keeping on with my work too and it’s spurring me to put more stuff out. And to create more even in fields where I’m not good enough to put it out.
I’ve decided to be a bit more political without getting back to my soapbox days. The scary thing is that in a trump, brexit world, even a love poem can be political. It’s about being aware that everything has a message so being aware of what message we’re sending is important (it always is I just hadn’t really considered it before in that way).
I’ve been writing a queer, YA historical fantasy, and it kind of feels like I’m being self-indulgent, because I have no idea if it’s any good. But now I’m more determined than ever to make it good, and share it with people who need to read stories like the one I’m working on.
Oh, also, I LOVE this comic. Totally meant to start my comment with that. This was beautiful <3

That’s exactly what I needed to read! Thank you so much for posting that :)
Dark and difficult times lie ahead.
This made my heart sing, I love it. Thank you
