Making an effort to ✨prettify✨ my WIP. This is an illustration that will be embedded in Chapter 1!
I’ve posted Chapter 8 of “Find the Light” (rated E, light on angst, heavy on biiiig feelings), and I know it can be difficult to take a chance on a WIP, but I’m currently writing Chapter 13 and am committed to a Tuesday/Friday update schedule right through to the end. Come give it a try!
(Huge thanks, as always, to my faithful beta-reader @suzypfonne, who also helped enormously with the design of this poster 💛)
I believe it was said that's a crew member and their voice was there so the animators knew where to place the board graphics. He was not supposed to be heard.
Full three minute-long clip of David on the Reasons to be Cheerful podcast talking about Pride Month and gay/trans rights. Truly heart-wrenching to hear him get so genuinely emotional/choke up as he keeps going. Notable moments:
David: "When I was at school, calling somebody gay was like the worst thing you could be called in the playground, and now we celebrate it...[choking up] and it makes me a little bit emotional. That it just gives people a chance to be seen and celebrated and to be just--combating some of that snide nastiness that is...when Target have to...[trying not to cry] when Target in America have to take down their displays because people are so intolerant, I think we all need to put up our rainbow flags and we need to march and shout and--[crying] I didn't expect this to get me this emotional, I'll be honest with you, but--you just want your children to grow up in a world that is kind, and you want your children to be kind and you want your children to be accepted for whoever they are. Whatever they want to be. They should be allowed to be whoever they want to be."
David: "When you look at it--when you take a step back and see how far we've come, it does give you hope. Because sometimes when you're right in the middle of day-to-day you think, 'Where are we going guys, come on?'
Ed Miliband: "We were in the era of Section 28 and all that stuff. But it has to be fought for."
David: "Yes, we can't take our foot off the gas, that's the thing. And we can't expect that we will always travel in the right direction toward acceptance. We've got to--we've all got to be fighting that fight every day."
Oh how I wish David had an online presence, I think he'd get a kick out of this. His noodly, ADHD self probably would have several more gravity-defying options to add as well.
a helpful tutorial
I was taking with my friend about good omens and we were wondering how the hell aziraphale-as-crowley managed to get into that bath without getting his socks wet and so I drew this ‘helpful’ guide.
I like to imagine that all the demons had to just awkwardly stand around watching him clamber around getting into this bathtub… @neil-gaiman can you confirm?
