is it something in the wind?
is it a changing of the seasons?
you try to remember the last time
you felt
like this
the last time
you realized
you
still
love
him
the last time you convinced yourself
to believe
things could be different between you & him
was it just a few months ago?
longer?
you remember screaming
at him
& throwing him
out of your house
your second son’s birthday…
the last time you invited him in
into your house
& opening
your heart
a little
just a little
the door peeked open
& he pushed his way in
& you pushed him back out again
& again
& again
until you wonder
why is there a revolving door on your heart?
& why
why
after all this time
all these years
why is he still
doing this dance
with you?
selfie with my dodo, y’all.
so i talked to my tarot cards tonight…about my crazy-ass feelings for my ex-husband, aka dusty…
i was told to control my impulses…to not jump into anything…to not abandon the path i have worked so hard on taking….
sigh.
my tarot cards never let me have any fun.
but, of course, they are right.
even if i were to work things out with my very handsome though emotionally stunted & narcissistic ex-husband, i should not–should definitely not–rush into it.
of course, i don’t know how to not rush into things…so i guess now is the time to learn.
in other news,
i lost my favorite pen. it has completely vanished. poof. gone. a replacement tip in the same size is $17.00 (i have several pens with clogged tips & could just switch out a new tip in the size of my favorite pen.) i have ordered one because the art must go on…but, i am on the verge of being very very broke & you know, donations are always welcome…as are purchases of my art.
should i set up a patreon page or something?
ack!
i need an agent/broker.
The patreon page is a good idea. It seems to be working out for a lot of people.

i have started it once or twice…i never am sure of what to offer to my patreons. i guess i could start doing videos of my process–complete with screaming children in the background! 😀

Custom art with poem for the high rollers? 🙂 I have only seen the music and educational stuff on it. They sell little collections, or have polls for patreons regarding the next project and stuff like that. I have no idea how they market their work in other areas. Marketing is a real pain, but the main thing seems to be interaction.

i’ve been trying to go bigger. making the text as much a part of the picture as the art. i know it tends to be a bit interpretive as far as the text goes. i like to think of it as an “experimental” comic 😉 then i can play around more.

interaction is not a problem. i love that part. being a stay-at-home mom, i crave interaction. okay. i’m going to finish my patreon page.
