hello! An Excess of Self is OUT now! 🌱 it’s a 30 page comic I made mixing my favorite things: hiking, feelings, and deep ecology. Send me a DM if you’re interested!

this might be for you if: you’re a magical forest fairy disguised as an adult, or you’re into weird questions, or you’re feeling heavy with the weight of the world.

it’s both Dalia and Sylvia’s first date, and my first time creating something that feels *so* intimate to me. creating has been challenging because i’m juggling a lot of big questions lately, but this comic allowed me to see those questions outside of myself, and it felt like having a deep chat i very desperately needed with two characters that mean a lot to me. idk. i’m not usually super proud of my work but i think this comic is very pretty and you should give it a go. it’s also super cheap. okay! lots of love! thanks for being here and doing your best in these weird, difficult times. i see you. bye!!

Is the full comic available to read somewhere? I can't find it in the link in your bio. These panels are very relatable. Being able to read comics that represent things I'm experiencing is very humanizing. The concept of fleeting personhood and the struggle for sustainability within that is particularly meaningful to me as well. But yes, I very much hope it is still accessible, I'd love to read more!

When I try to access the web I get an error, am I too late to buy it? 🥺

finally got around to reading and this is genuinely one of the most beautiful character studies I’ve ever read. this comic was made for me as a neurodivergent lesbian hiker with a proclivity for weird questions, thank you!

Finally got a chance to read your comic last night (alongside a few others I got from the ShortBox Comic Fair) and I just wanted to say how absolutely beautiful it is! :D 1. The drawings are GORGEOUS! 🌿🦋🪲🌈🦜🐜🐞💐 2. Adored Sylvia a lot, and I def relate to her being a queer (specifically bi 🩷💜💙) biology nerd myself! 3. The whole story was wonderful and I felt it genuinely spoke to a lot of things in my life (mainly the feelings of uncertainty), even if I didn’t share the exact same experiences as Dalia and Sylvia. Thank you for this amazing comic (and I may be tempted to make fanart for it one day if that’s okay with you)! 💖✨
