COMIC: Back to School

BONUS Panel:

The wall to wall back to school posts on my timeline reminded me of this comic from 2019.  It was a pretty simple one ...

Making of "Green Eggs and Fran"

2 years ago I drew this Dr Seuss style Vincent for a bonus panel:

I was really pleased with it and wanted to do more.  I envisioned it being l...

COMIC: Green Eggs and Fran

I really enjoyed doing this one!  The "making of" coming soon...!

Making of "Nice, Relaxing Shower"

Being a first-time mum was the hardest thing I've ever done in my life.  Our oldest was a colicky nightmare and those first few months were pure survival-mode.  Sneaking away for a shower was a heavenly thing, but my sleep deprived brain...

COMIC: Nice, Relaxing Shower

This one goes out to all the new parents out there!  

Making of "Ready to Tumble"

The kids were playfighting on our bed -which is pretty high.  J walked in and 7yo (while getting repeated hit in the head with a pillow) cheerfully explained that they were playing "Idiots: Battle Arena", to which J replied "Looks like you're...

Making of "Clever Hacks"

My oldest started playing Minecraft around the same age I got my NES (6ish) and I am constantly astounded by his abilities compared to mine.  I remember feeling VERY clever holding the Zapper up to the screen, it never once dawning on me that...

Making of "Rad"

This was a word for word back and forth I overheard between J and our oldest.  I'm unsure of the year, but judging by the way he's talking, he must have been 2-3ish?  They were lying on their tummies in our bed, kicking their feet up in ...

DOG COMIC: Rad

Slice of life in the doggo household!

Making of "So Obvious"

My oldest threw this one at me when he was about 5.  Told to me like I was some kind of moron.

The funny thing is so much of parenting is figuring out when to "ignore yourself"!  It's near constant mental gymnastics to work out whi...

COMIC: So Obvious

Kiddo threw this logic at me!

BONUS Panel:

Making of "So Fun"

I got this idea at a birthday party my oldest attended. The venue had a rock climbing wall and we were both excited for him to have a go -until I had to sign the "You can't sue us if we kill your kid" paperwork!  

I choked my terror dow...

COMIC: So Fun!

How it feels to be a parent at one of these places!

BONUS Panel:

Making of "Influencers"

The mailboxes in our neighborhood are grouped together and there's only room for a couple of cars next to them.  You park up, grab mail and go as quickly as possible to make room for someone else.  Not everyone got the memo though and on...

Real life conversation that happened recently.  

*No old ladies were harmed in the making of this comic -they were just being silly!*

Making of "Healthy Snacktime"

This one went through quite a few changes!  Let's start at the beginning... 

Sometimes I sneak a little treat for myself while the kids are distracted.  I'm not proud of it -actually, that's a lie. There's definitely some prid...

Making of "Big Feelings"

A fan tagged me in this fantastic tweet last year, saying it sounded like a Litterbox Comic -she wasn't wrong!  I put a note of it away in my fi...

Making of "Howl" (and the Dog Family)

I've had a big list of dog comic ideas for a while.  J and I were out shopping (coincidentally in Target!) when he suggested making the dog comics a Patreon exclusive thing.  Having them exist away from the cats solved a lot of storytell...

DOG COMIC: Howl

Here's the very first Patreon exclusive Dog Comic!  I've had a bunch of doggie ideas in my notes for years, but it's hard to wrangle them into a cat-centric comic.  Finally I can "let the dogs out!" :)

Switching things up a little next month!

I've made a deal with Webtoon where they'll get new Litterbox Comics a week before anyone else. That means you’ll no longer have to pledge $5 to get your paws on early release comics; you can just 2022-06-28 23:58:39 +0000 UTC View Post

Making of "This Weekend"

Our youngest had this conversation with J a couple of Father's Days ago -he must have been 3?  We thought it was delightful how brutally honest he was!

It's quite hard to have conversations between the parents and Cooper because he's so...

COMIC: Healthy Snacks

My kids must NEVER see this! 👀

EDIT:  Bonus Panel!

My Mom is Dracula

Jason from My Dad is Dracula reached out to me to see if I'd like to do a guest comic.  He's in the final stretch of his 2022-06-16 17:04:53 +0000 UTC View Post

COMIC: Big Feelings

I got permission to turn this tweet into a comic.  It couldn't have been more perfect for a Litterbox strip! :)

COMIC: This Weekend

Cute real life conversation J had with our youngest 😍

Making of "Move"

As a horribly awkward English person, I think about stuff like this a lot.  With the addition of social distancing In the summer of 2020, I thought about it a whole lot more!  

I sketched out this comic an...

Making of "Aarrggh!"
