Might be a work in progress? Or a “quit while you’re ahead” type situation.

Attention all: I am now a real adult.

Mon, 21 May 2012 12:53:47 -0400

I have graduated from law school, after 2 straight decades of formal education.

I have my first “real” job lined up, and start on June 11.

I have moved into my first “real” apartment which I (and my new roommate) have to pay for rent, utilities and other living expenses with no help from our parents (well, at least I will once I get my first paycheck.)

I will be 25 on Wednesday.

In the short term, posts will be made entirely at the whims of when I can’t bear to unpack any more boxes. In the long term, they will be subject much more to the usual 9-to-5 work schedule.

But I have no intention to stop blogging and bringing attention to all the great female comics creators out there. I’m ever grateful to all my readrs for showing an interest for the past year and a half or so, and I don’t want anyone thinking this blog has been abandoned. I even intend to do Market Monday later today! But just a heads up that things will continue to be slow around here until I sort my new life out.

Thanks for all your patience and support!

Are You My Mother? A Comic Drama by Alison Bechdel

From the best-selling author of Fun Home, Time magazine’s No. 1 Book of the Year, a brilliantly told graphic memoir of Alison Bechdel becoming the artist her mother wanted to be.

Alison Bechdel’s Fun Home was a pop culture and literary phenomenon. Now, a second thrilling tale of filial sleuthery, this time about her mother: voracious reader, music lover, passionate amateur actor. Also a woman, unhappily married to a closeted gay man, whose artistic aspirations simmered under the surface of Bechdel’s childhood…and who stopped touching or kissing her daughter good night, forever, when she was seven. Poignantly, hilariously, Bechdel embarks on a quest for answers concerning the mother-daughter gulf. It’s a richly layered search that leads readers from the fascinating life and work of the iconic twentieth-century psychoanalyst Donald Winnicott, to one explosively illuminating Dr. Seuss illustration, to Bechdel’s own (serially monogamous) adult love life. And, finally, back to Mother—to a truce, fragile and real-time, that will move and astonish all adult children of gifted mothers.
