Damp Deerhound

“You look bummed, mate,” said Sprite.

“I am,” sighed Deerhound. “I slept in a puddle last night. Now the fur on my knee is all matted.”

“Sorry to hear that,” replied Sprite. “Hey, it could be worse. You could have your leg stuck in a hole in the ground filled with water.”

“Give it a break,” sighed Deerhound. “I know you mean well…”

HAH! Unusually subtle for me. Like yesterday, my tiny Fear is available on Etsy for £6 with free global postage. Linky: littlefears.etsy.com

When I posted yesterday, I looked at the panel and remembered why I don’t like the ultra short comic style for the Fears. Drawing out a story for maximum-groan is what causes my readers to cry out in pain when they read the punchline. Without the longer story side of it, readers are less likely to slam their heads on the desk, snap pencils or throw keyboards across the room.

It seems most people agree. That’s fine with me!

I was surprised at how many folks showed the love for my usual lo-fi photo with doodle on. My cockles were warmed. Cheers, rabble! So, mixing it up is the way forward. A little of this and a little of that, all within the Fears aesthetic and humour.

Although, this week, it’s all about the micro doodle.

Cheers to Warren for the continued $10 Patronage. Want to support the Fears or nobble books, art and merch? Find me on KoFi, Patreon, Etsy, Amazon, Skillshare and Threadless.
