A couple of things:
- I should give credit to a book I read this year that I enjoyed but later decided I didn't actually LIKE all that much, Freedom by Jonathan Franzen. A mother refers to her son as her "designated understander" or something like that.
- That ideal state of mind where I'm in the oak tree? Extremely rare. Usually it's somewhere in the middle.

Aer's triumphant return
It's been a while. There are lots of things in my head that I want to draw comics about but I haven't been able to put them to paper. There are lots of reasons/excuses for my comics absence but really I've just been kind of scared.
I've been sitting on one half-finished comic story for over six weeks now, and I don't want to finish it really, but I feel like I can't move on until I do? I don't know. Partly because I don't know how to end it, but also because I don't really care - it's boring and dumb and about the same neurotic stuff as always. Maybe it's because I'm scared to move on to the bigger things I want to write/draw about, the uncharted places. Who knows.
I might put it up in its unfinished state and put it out of its misery and let's never talk about it again etc.
Until then I will try to work through my fear by forcing myself to draw about the little things until I'm ready to tackle the big ones.
Oh, and the strip on the right might need some context.

Here's another short one. I have a couple of long-form comic stories on the back burner, but my next piece for Bangkok Poetry has been taking up most of my time. I'll be presenting the final installment of my "Post-Rapture" story. I don't think I ever posted installment #3 from last month - it's here. The event is this coming Thursday the 29th, at Opposite.
