Just realised, I'm 11 years sober this year. In that time I fell in love, got married, had a beautiful baby boy, bought a house and made reasonable inroads into the comics career I always dreamed of. None of this would've been possible if I'd still been drinking. None of it.

Cutting creativity out of the creative process has been a deeply held corporate dream for decades. I know it's unstoppable, but outsourcing creative expression to the machine is the purest folly. Art is humanity's attempt to render ITS OWN experience meaningful. This is not art.

Horror is tricky in comics because the reader controls the pacing and the medium doesn't offer the subjective immediacy of prose. The abject and the uncanny are where we excel. For a masterclass, pick up HOUSE by Josh Simmons or anything by Julia Gforer.
