Miniature Horses


So I can't draw horses. This is my first journal comic thing--Julai and I took a road trip this weekend. Perhaps there's a mini horse ranch managed by crotchety nuns in your area.

If you haven't been reading Next Town Over by the very talented Erin Mehlos, do yourself a favor and click on the "hyperlink," and get lost in some accomplished comic artistry and storytelling; Erin Mehlos blends magic and Gilded Age machinery into a fantastical otherworldly western. I ordered her first volume, and she sent me this awesome drawing, too! Thanks Erin!

  1. What are YOU doing this weekend? Are you going to be in Texas? If so, you should come out to the Houston Indie Book Festival, because I will be there selling my mini book, and whatever else I can put together before then. Oh, how we will laugh together and carry on!

  2. Thank you and you're welcome and I really like these tablet-drawn ones (though not necessarily to the exclusion of the other ones)!
