Pretty please if you enjoy reading my cartoons, become a paid subscriber. As a freelance artist I’m literally always scraping by. I was giggling to myself this morning about the phrase “Living hand to mouth” because it sounds like I eat money, but maybe I am eating cash?? Is that where it’s all going?? Are you able to wake up in the morning? How many friggin times have I brought this up??? I am always thinking about my favorite Sam Gross cartoon (RIP).

It has taken me centuries to figure out how to smile correctly. Well, correct for me at least, my parents and I probably still differ on this. Everyone has the way the want to look in pictures and then there’s reality. Reality being, all of the photos of me on Facebook from 2008-2013. They’re horrifying, but I also don’t have the energy to go untag myself from every party in college I attended.

For some reason when I began submitting cartoons to The New Yorker in 2016, I also felt inclined to keep all of the guest passes I received in order to get into the building. The horrible digital photos they took of you as you went through security in 1 World Trade felt like like visual poetry. Who is she?? An artist? A murderer? A weather girl???

Please consider pre-ordering my blood, sweat and tears through Indiebound, or another local bookstore service instead of using the Amazon monster. In the coming months I’ll be sharing lots about the book and the process and blah blah blah you get it. But today I was reminded of a comic I drew back in 2019 from when I literally had dinner with Ina Garten.

I cannot believe I haven’t done a sketchbook dump since October. Who even… am I? To answer my own question, this month I am someone who finished their second graphic memoir. HA! INSANE! UNBELIEVABLE! Or, very believable, as it took me 4 years to draw and was my entire existence. The Joy of Snacking goes on sale August 26th, but you can pre-order it now, preferably not from Amazon. I finished the book the week of my birthday and then hopped on a plane to see my family (and Nate Bargatze!) in Vegas.

I wasn’t going to write a Valentine’s newsletter until I realized the day would line up with my weekly release so it seemed like I had had no choice but to acknowledge the day. Please don’t hate me. I’ve drawn a lot of love cartoons over the years. You might even say that’s been the bulk of my work. Love, or loss thereof. It’s the stuff of life, the only thing a book is ever really about, and every song on the radio. Not that I need to remind you.
