I was just meditating on this idea, so I thought I would share it.
Yes, I meditate. I’m a big advocate of it because I’m the self-reflective, introverted type of person that meditates to solve problems.
This morning I thought on gender identity and how we, as a culture, place so much importance on material things to validate our identity. Continue reading “Your Gender Identity is You: A Meditation”
So, in between my webcomics and my day jobs, I’ve still managed to make some new sketches to develop some comics I have in the works.
I have them posted below. They’re not in color (yet) but I wanted to show you the (dare I say, gorgeous) line-work I used to draw them.
This last sketch is from a webcomic my sister Kia and I are hoping to get on KickStarter, called “Seeing Him.”
The story is about a young lady named Kate who wants to find Mr. Right. She finds him in Adam, a devilishly handsome OB/GYN who is also a trans man.
We both felt like there weren’t enough stories with trans men in them, and what few there are don’t necessarily portray them as, like, people. We hope that “Seeing Him” can help change that.
We tried running a KickStarter previously, but we didn’t meet our goal.
But this time, we learned: we’re going to lower the fundraising goal, and offer more digital rewards and custom commissions for backers.
The plan is to get the KickStarter up online on Saturday, but with my two day jobs deciding they want me to work full-time hours, I don’t know if that’ll happen.
However, if the project gets fully funded, I can actually QUIT one day job for a while. And that would be super cool to just make more comics more often, yo.
Wish me luck!
It all started when a neighbor of mine (and by “neighbor” I mean someone five miles down the road and across the river from my house) taught my sisters and me how to crochet blankets. Continue reading “Crafting is Fun, Yo”
I’m one of those oddball people who looks in the mirror and says compliments about myself, like, “Damn my chin looks sexy today!” Or “my eyes are so expressive and pretty.”
I posted about it on Twitter and one response was…
@KelciDCrawford Not weird. Fabulous. LOVE YOURSELF
And it made me think, “…loving yourself seems almost counter cultural, doesn’t it?” Continue reading “How to Use a Mirror”
A few years ago I went with my college class to the Navajo reservation, to stay out there for three weeks and learn about the Navajo people and their culture in the present day.
There were a few notable things about the trip. Continue reading “A Trip to the Canyon du Chelley”
