3yo: I'm gonna be a Ghostbusta for Hadoween! And a Ninjah Turkle for Kissmas!
He’s got it all figured out.

Feelin' Spooky!
We're gearing up for year 2 of Comictober, where 4 other webcomic artists and myself release a prompt list for comics to draw over October. We draw our characters dressed up to decorate the list, so here's Fran in her Beetlejuice costume!

Making of "Best Laid Plans"
Motherhood hit me like a ton of bricks. My 1st was NOT a happy baby and those first few months were the hardest of my life. I had so many good intentions and ideas, pre-kids, which suddenly seemed so ridiculous once I was there!
I had always intended to stop swearing once...

3yo poops in loo and inspects it through his legs.
3yo: I fink it looks like a wampire!
3yo: NNURGH!
*PLOP*
3yo: I just pooped on the wampire! Now e's dead.
(I can confirm it did somehow look like a vampire)

Making of "Gamify"
My 6yo's bedtime routine is an absolute nightmare, so we try to find ways to speed things up. We thought the classic "see if you can beat your own time" trick would work, but he just started spouting this nonsense about button presses and menu options -which ended up taking even LONGER.

The idea for this one actually came from the 3yo. Grandpa was coming to visit, so ALL MORNING I got "Is Grampa here yet? Is Grampa here yet? Is Grampa here yet? ". I kept replying with "Not yet, sweetie!" until he snaps back "SOP SAYIN DAT!"

Grandpa took the kids last weekend so I managed to get a LOAD of new comics roughed out! *Exciting!* 😃

Making of "Back Up"
This one was 2 ideas smashed together. J managed to use the "boring" technique to successfully deter the kids from doing something the other day and thought it would make a good strip. That left me with the job of coming up with something for him to be redirecting them from. 2020-07-29 00:03:36 +0000 UTC View Post
