Elephant Town Chapter 13 (pages 1 & 2)

but wHERE DO YOU PUT THE BOOBS??

Hey, I just posted Chapter 12 on the Elephant Town website (which means we're all caught up!!) and I'm 2022-08-29 04:29:07 +0000 UTC View Post

Elephant Town Chapter 12 (pages 23 + 24)

I hope you'll agree that Miranda's face is a pretty realistic/appropriate reaction to Baby's First Cat Puke. 

(I JUST NOW realized how far away from the chair Stromboli hurked. Good form, Stromboli!)

Thanks for being so patient on this update! If 2022-08-23 04:12:10 +0000 UTC View Post

There she is. :)

Chapter 10 was just added to the website, in case you're following along & re-reading over there!

Because if you can't text a person's phone number, what on EARTH else would you do with it??

I have no idea if any of my Shepherdstown folks here remember t...

One of Nicole's greatest traits is naming things. (Inspired by Luke's attempt to make a stromboli from scratch earlier this week.) (Also apparently Stromboli is uppercase?? And maybe not everyone uses that word?? I never heard it until I started dating this Pennsylvania boy, so, if you don't know what it is,...

Chapter 7's up on elephant.town!

Hey gang! I'm home from California and needed a little rest-up last night, so I waited til this morning to load the latest chapter on the Elephant Town website. Chapter 7 is a nice palate cleanser after Chapter 6!!

There are no new pages for Chapter 12 today, because I took an actual for-real vacation with my fa...

Elephant Town Chapter 12 (pages 14 & 15)

Imagine Miranda's delight in being asked a question that's best answered with a "sh." (They come back shortly after you stfu.)

Finger snaps to Annie K for guessing that the tweeps were coming from spring peepers! They're one of my favorite things that come out in spring.

Elephant Town Chapter 12 (pages 12-13)

I've had this page in mind for years. One of my favorite discoveries in this town.

Thanks for all the well wishes last week! I was really happy that I felt well enough a few days ago to practice drawing this one outside & on-site. If you're in town, I bet you recognize this site... and maybe the sound as well. (Points if you can guess what that sound is before Miranda explains it to us! ;) ...

Elephant Town Chapter 4 is up on the website!

Completely forgot to mention in the last post: Chapter 4 (our introduction to Miranda, incidentally) is up on the website!  

If you were following here on Patreon when this chapter came out, you may notice a few small color shifts. I was really just getting my feet on the ground during this chapter, and I felt it deserved a few updates. If you catch 'em, I'll be impressed. ;)

Elephant Town Chapter 12 (pages 10-11)

Nicole's not one to be left alone.

I was finally able to stand today! Long enough to finish these!

I've been very good about staying in my house this whole time, but today I finally let myself take ONE short walk. It was to see the end of the sunset (a tall order in our town, perched on an eastwa...

And a good covid to you.

It's been a week! At least I'm upright (supported by cushions, but) and hyped to draw dumb little comics over the photo of my covid test today. 

Unfortunately finishing tomorrow's pages will require standing up (and many more hours) so if you don't see new pages tomorrow, hang in there, they'll come when I'm able to finish them. Thanks in advance for your patience!

I haven't been this sick since 2007, but I've got a lot of nice friends taking care of me, including this attent...

Chapter 12 update coming, but Chapter 3 is up on the site!

I've still got about 2 hours to go on today's update, so I'm going to crash and finish it in the morning, but Chapter 3 is up on the Elephant Town website if you wanna revisit it! 

It's the one with Berto and Meighan and chicken cacciatore, which is the meal one of you clever patrons came up with for them. There's some other stuff that happens, too. ;) Enjoy!

Elephant Town Chapter Two

Chapter Two is up on the website if you wanna re-read it painlessly and in order! 

I had such a lousy night of sleep last night that I decided not to head home today like I'd planned (which freed me up to have a goodbye lunch with Dan Berry, so I ain't complaining too much). So I'm at a little mo...

Monday Elephant Town update

We love a smiling Miranda. :)

Happy Sunday! Due to a couple of weird circumstances, my Monday update is a little different than usual; I planned to only bring my iPad to Toronto this week, so I knew I wouldn’t have my pens/paper to make complete pages for you this tim...

In case you missed it, the first chapter is up on the **nEW PRetTy wEBsITE** for Elephant Town! I'll be posting the next chapter every Monday until we're caught up, then I'll just post w...

Website is UP!! Chapter 1 is (finally) complete!

It feels SO! GOOD!! to finally share this website! Here's a link to the very beginning, if you'd like to start from page one (technically, page zero)! 

I'm officially announcing the website tomorrow, but feel free to share widely today if you'd like; with the drowning out of messages on social media these days, I could use your amplification! You can send people to 2022-06-12 23:04:12 +0000 UTC View Post

There's a lot of sighing in this book.

Elephant Town Chapter 12 (pages 1-2)

Good news! We still have Cat. :3

I love making Miranda's pages. I'm happy to add more soft cozy golden glowy shit to this world.

Oh and if you wanna catch up on the last Miranda chapter, here are some links!

A dozen little things!

I've been doing a lot at once these past two weeks, and none of them are completely done, but they're close! Here's a list, I like lists.

The End of Chapter 1
The  main thing that's been keeping me from finalizing the Elephant Town website has been interpreting the original final animated GIF pages in Chapter 1 (the ones in the gallery format) into static panels. ...

WE INTERRUPT THIS PROGRAM FOR: GARDEN

I'm spending last week and this week on SECRET THINGS (patrons, you'll see soon!), so for this Monday's update, I give you: GARDEN.

It's hard to believe I only got into gardening LAST year, because now I feel like my entire life is GARDEN LIFE, unfortunately for Luke, who gets hourly updates on my green bean seedlings.

But I'm actually not going to share my vegetable garden with you yet, because it's still in progress, and I've spent the last two months focusing on THIS:

Elephant Town updating tonight!

We celebrated my best bud Ryan's birthday with a proper sushi-and-pinball party today, Sunday, which is always my publishing day. So instead of skipping it for work, I set a goal to finish two pages before we left, finish the third one Monday, and post everything Monday night.

Thanks for your patience! We had a great time, here we are in front of the pinball machines like we're posing for a high school club photo (Ryan is the tall one in the back):

Elephant Town Chapter 11, page 8

(Not to ruin the lovey moment, but: this is one of those pages that I spent all week drawing  and redrawing, only not know how to color it in the end. I'll almost certainly recolor this at some point, but for now, finished is better than perfect!)

I like 'em, they're cute. <3

Easter Delay - Elephant Town tomorrow!

I spent the weekend preparing for and executing a bomb-ass Easter gathering with my family, wherein I spent several hours working toward the pinnacle of my deviled egg-making career.

To be fair, I made these Peeps eggs by request of my mom a few years back, and I've had to one-up them every year since.

Black peppercorn eyes, carrot beaks, and... licorice eyebrows? Real eyebrows? Who's to ...

Elephant Town Chapter 11 (pages 3+4)

I stressed so much about drawing that third panel, but it wasn't that bad! Given, I probably pared down the actual contents of the Lost Dog by about 99%.

The opossum was fun. >:)

Props to all the former Maria's workers who filled me in on kitchen details so this would feel like, y'know, a kitchen.
