Tales of humour, whimsy and courgettes
Fur appears to be my new comfort zone. Doesn’t help that all of my finest fine liners ran out of ink at the same time. Doh. Note to self. Give tomorrows kaiju less fur and buy myself some FW inks, a dip pen and a nib pack.

“I saw Alfred this morning,” noted Sprite.
“The snail?” asked Spectre. “What’s he up to nowadays?”
“He’s homeless,” replied Sprite. “He got evicted from his shell by a slimy landlord.”
“Oh, man, poor guy,” remarked Spectre. “How’s he taken it?”
“Better than expected,” said Sprite. “But he’s feeling a little sluggish.”
Alas, poor Alfred. Another illustration from the missus. Everybody loves her previous art here, so once again, she gets tapped for a drawing. You can check her art out and say hello to her on Twatter at @DonnaMStrachan and you can nobble her art prints from Society6 and you can buy her a cuppa on Ko-fi.

Have you ever created a character you were really happy with, but had no idea what to do with them? Well, that’s me and Bunneh. I used her once in a #Colour_Collective portrait then never again.
I gave her away this week on Patreon as PNG. She has a transparent background so can be plonked into any project. She’s free for Patrons to download and use in any project (including commercial), no credit required.
Want to use Bunneh for something yourself? Hit me up on Patreon for as little as $1 a month. Linky: patreon.com/littlefears
Thank you, everyone, for your continued comments, support, cups of tea and patronage. You’re all awesome.

Nearly half-way through Kaijune, and I’m making my way into new sets of stories without my beloved Posca pens.
I seem to have moved onto Faber-Castell Pitt Artist pens for everything. Now that’s an expensive transition! I need to investigate FW inks and dip pens. It would be a lot cheaper and give me more colour options. Also, the way my missus raves about them, I think the FW stands for ‘fecking wonderful.’

“I don’t want you here,” growled Meria.
“Well, you’re stuck with me,” laughed Lucy. “My wife just left me on account of my obsession with cricket.”
“Should I care?” asked Meria.
“No,” replied Lucy. “It just really hit me for six.”
“Why did you come to this island?” asked Meria.
Lucy reached for a bottle of whisky and grinned.

Meria kicked the pub’s door open and dragged her haul inside.
“Well, this is grim,” chuckled Lucy flicking the light switch. “Bulbs have gone?”
“Times are hard here,” sighed Meria. “There’s no money on this island and the electricity abandoned the supply years ago.”
“Well,” smirked Lucy, “these are dark times
Shout out to Kathy of Kathy of London for new patronage this morning. You’ll find photography, poetry and pecking birds on her blog, so if you fancy any of the above, give her a visit. Cheers, Kat!

“This is one cold and barren island,” remarked Lucy.
“It has sea birds, sheep and fish,” replied Meria.
“Not much intelligent life here,” grinned Lucy.
“The dolphins are about as smart as life gets here,” growled Meria, “and that suits me fine.”
“That’s all well and good until you need to clean a pod them,” chuckled Lucy. “I doubt you have many multi-porpoise cleaners on this rock.”

“That’d make a good photo,” remarked Lucy.
“Only for some motivational social media crap,” snorted Meria.
“I like clouds,” pondered Lucy. “I wrote a play about five clouds. On the opening night, the director added a sixth cloud.”
Meria shook her head and pressed on.
“The stage was overcast,” grinned Lucy.

“Considering you’re on a deserted island,” pondered Lucy, “you’re in an awful hurry.”
“How did you get here?” asked Meria.
“Same way you did, I imagine,” replied Lucy.
Meria nodded to the East, “storms coming.”
“Yeah,” noted Lucy. “It’ll blow over.”
Not another long serial. Just another five-parter like the Shore with my usual play-on-words mixed with a smidgen of horror.

Story by David
“The cat was mostly curious when I put it in the blender,” recounted Lucy.
Yuffie sobbed.
“It got ornery when I added the holy water, but the lid proved the stronger,” continued Lucy.
“How could you do that? What was going through your mind?” Yuffie moaned.
“You always say, fight fire with fire. You were catatonic. What else could I do?” Lucy demanded.
This weeks tale was spun (hah! Git it!) by David. You can check out their poetry and philosophical musings at davidiclineage.wordpress.com
