I just read There's Life After the Impact and I just wanted to send a message about how much I loved it. I've never been able to properly put into words why I love second-hand trinkets, wandering around thrift shops looking at all the small objects that were loved once, and you articulated and illustrated the feeling so beautifully. It also made me so attached to these characters already, like I don't know if it was meant to be read this way but I felt like that promise Robin talks about is something they want for themselves but also a promise they've made to the young girl. Especially because they are in an implied post-apocalyptic setting like aughhh my heart ToT Also as someone who is in art school right now studying making comics, your layouts for each page are so so inspiring and gorgeous. Your art in general inspires me a lot but this was next level. I'm so happy I got to read it, and thank you for making it!

This is the kindest and sweetest message thank you thank you!! Truly made my day that you were able to read it!

To semi answer the part about the promise- it's purposefully ambiguous! There's Life After the Impact started out as a spoken word piece in my journal, so the "you" Robin talks about was left to reference their sister, the object or even the audience depending on how the rhythm of the monologue hits the reader

Forgot I never shared my old thesis film here!
