Lil Quarterly Update
Added 2025-04-21 07:20:00 +0000 UTCI'm sure this isn't actually a quarterly update, but I thought I'd give y'all a quick overview of what's been going on and what'll be coming up in the next few months. I like to do these every now and then just to keep you all in the loop and let you have an idea of what'll be getting worked on etc.
I took the last week off comic work as my dog (baby) had shoulder surgery so my family came up to watch her as I did a 3-day wall plastering course because the walls of my house are in a state and it was cheaper to learn how to do it professionally than to get someone in (lol). Unfortunately on the day they arrived her surgery failed (she's dislocated the shoulder so the surgery was to install bone anchors and like a piece of elastic to hold it in while the surrounding tendons healed, but we think (hope) the elastic has snapped. So I spent Monday getting her xrays then had to go plaster tues-thurs which was the most tiring thing I've done in years, seriously. My house is also breaking and I need new sewage pipes dug up and installed, my boiler fixed and the electrician in to sort my oven switch that keeps sizzling lmaooo. Just waiting on a new surgery date, but it's work as usual now, I'm just stuck at home for the next month since she'll be on cage rest. Send me your energy pleaasseeeeee.
Anyway, here's what's going on work-wise:
business as usual with TC script updates, aiming for the mid season finale to be around ep 285.
currently working on formatting vol 3 of the TC print book, but am waiting on contracts and docs to come through from the publisher before that can progress and I can give you any more news on it.
Will be continuing Sonder pages as I have time (I don't lmao), aiming for a book 3 release by November next year prob.
Very close to being able to start on Crosswires, want to do a few more sample pages to get the colouring style/flow right before starting properly (because there's nothing worse than wanting to change it halfway through and redoing pages). The entire plot has been finalised and I'm very excited for y'all to read it.
Prepro for Hurt Girls Club is still ongoing, I haven't sorted the plot yet as I've been too stressed with other things to think about it tbh, but will be working on concept art for it off and on. I'm wanting to travel around where I live and incorporate some of the rural British landscape/architecture/supernatural stories in it and make it something I'm really proud of, so will hopefully be doing some field sketches and things (when I'm allowed to leave my dog for more than an hour at a time). Aiming to get this well on its way in time for next year as TC winds down and ready to pitch to WT in case they're interested in picking it up, otherwise I'll be looking for some other kind of full-time employment lololol.
I'm currently still working on launching a new online/in-person farmer's market shop and have a few products sorted but need to just sit down and sort all the admin for it etc, but it'll be a brand focused more on like rural/vintage/spooky British vibe products that aren't as comic-centric as my current shop, that I can go around selling at local markets and things just to get me out the house more and having fun interacting with people haha. I've decided I won't be doing markets this year as I just have too much going on, but will be scoping out good ones to try attend next year.
This isn't required reading, but just in case you were interested haha. Massive thanks to you all for being interested in my little projects<3
Also lmk if there's anything in particular you'd like to see more of on here (or on any of my other socials)! I'm thinking of doing a quick insta page to keep all my house before/after pics in one place for myself to try stay motivated with it also lmaooo.

Holy mother of pearl, Meg. All this at once would kill me. You are an absolute champion and I'm sending all the spare energy I've got. Please kiss your puppy on the nose for us. π
