people want stories
People just want good stories.
childhood warp
But nothing warps time quite like childhood
life-is loses
Life is mostly just learning how to lose.
hurt pain forgiving
They hurt you. You hurt 'em back. Or maybe it is the other way around. Whatever. Someday you might find a way to forgive each other. But it won't be like it used to 'cause that pain never really goes away.
stories youth retelling
I've never had any interest in retelling stories from my youth.
mom feel-better good-relationship
My mom once told me that a good relationship isn't where the other person makes you feel better, but where they make *you* better.
bullshit happy-endings pauses
Happy endings are bullshit. There are only happy pauses.
fun long trying
Sure, this will probably end up being another in a long line of emotionally crippling misadventures...but let's try to have some fun along the way.
writing trying why-not
Immigration confuses and terrifies me, so why not try to write a comic and make some sense of it?
fighting hey groups
Gert: Wake me when the fight scene's over. Kitty Pryde: Oy, tell me about it. Hey, I'm Kitty. You the token pacifist of your group? Gert: Not exactly. Pacifists are like vegans, I'm more of a vegetarian. I enjoy fish and occasional maulings.
fall tree fruit
Okay, is anyone else worried that some of the fruit didn't fall far enough away from the tree?
white looks fiction
I realized that for fantasy and science fiction, especially from my youth, white was the default. Luke Skywalker was in the lead, or even if you were a hobbit, you're going to be white. That was an extremely old-fashioned, obviously really narrow-minded way to look at things.
school opposites imagination
I sort of jumped out of movies and into the lifeboat of comics. I loved it right away. It was the opposite of film school. Whatever was in my imagination could end up in the finished product. There were just no limitations.
aquariums hobbies pinnacle
Reef aquariums are definitely the pinnacle of the hobby.
