Happy New Year

Un-planned Creativity

Happy New Year, Crones & Friends! This year I didn’t make any resolutions, I have not created any new goals, and I haven’t even set a word or intention for the year. I’m officially retired, so I can just play it by ear all the way. It is very freeing to feel this way.

So, what’s coming this year? I’ll still be making comics, I’m knitting myself a sweater, and I’m making small dolls with polymer clay.

Comics that are coming up include:

Croneville Carnival part 2. This is still in production and will show up here when it’s ready.

I’ve started doing diary comics with a golem as my co-conspirator, which I’ll post monthly. This will be similar to the Mummies on my Mind series I did a couple of years ago.

And I have a couple of small projects to start and finish along the way.

I’m planning to follow my energy and work on whatever project feels most exciting to me each day and week. This is not a big departure from how I’ve worked in the past, but now it doesn’t even count as “work.” I’m sure this transition to retirement will be showing up in Croneville Carnival, too.

For now, I wish you all a joyful and peaceful new year in the midst of whatever craziness is happening in the larger world.
