I've had this image in my head of Dirt and Harver going down to the river to fish and they're singing "Fishin' In The Dark" like two goobers. LOL. Even though "Fishing in the dark" has become a bit of a euphemism for hooking up LOL. They don't care. It's a classic, silly song. You can't be unhappy listening to that song... (or maybe that's just me loololol).

Yaaayyy, one more character to add to my "character profiles" folder! This time we have the Crouton himself... Brynn... He might be the only character that we have all collectively decided to give a nickname. All because of a silly scene in the comic where he buys croutons to snack on (something I do myself from time to time. No you may not start calling me Crouton!).
Anyway, Brynn is a unique character in the sense that he is bitchy, bratty, and tiny. My shortest OC lol <3 Idk how A...

Looking at fonts for my next comic is proving a little bit difficult... TLLT uses a very non-traditional font for comics and I've regretted that decision for a while now! (too late to change it all though lol).
My favorite of these 4 is the bottom right-- in my opinion its the easiest to read, but also has a softness about it that I like compared to the others??? I'm curious what you guys think! Please let me know which one is your fav???

Hello, Hello! Happy September and GOOD RIDDANCE to Summer!
I wanted to let y'all know that the Kickstarter stretch goal reward HAS been sent out! Thank you again to all my backers for being patient with me, and for supporting TLLT Volume 2! I am so happy that it's officially finished... and I can 100% guarantee, without a doubt, I will NOT be doing another Kickstarter for Volume 3 LOL.
Kickstarters are great n all, but after doing them two years in a row, I think I've realized th...

Someone requested this a little while ago and I was finally in the mood to draw it! Gender swaps of Bebe/Dirt/Keplan/Harver...
I have to say, after drawing Bebe and Dirt, I'm convinced in this AU there is no way they're together as a couple. LOL. Unless I changed their personalities, the gender-dynamics just don't work the same lol. Bebe still has to be a total sweetheart, and Dirt still has to be reckless, hot-headed and crazy lol. The two of them would be a hell of a combination don't...

<3 some love for Fletch and Judas because I've been doing so many doodles of Kep/Harve and other characters lately, I felt it would be good to give them some attention. Even if they're still the main focus in comic updates, it's starting to feel like they're less and less present in my brain as I start rolling creativity and inspiration over into my future endeavors. And that makes me sad in a way...
Fletch and Judas will always be very special though <3 No doubt about that.

I also just wanna let everyone know that I'm planning on taking next week off from updating so that I can work on my short-story Kickstarter reward that's overdue!

These doodles were actually just inspired by this song >>> "The Wolf" by The Spencer Lee Band

Anyway, Dirt is a character with many different angles. Goofball... golden retriever boyfriend... thrill seeker... dumbass... short-tempered-fly-off-the-handle-don't-fuck-with-my-best-friend friend. All the things really.

🥹🥹🥹🥹 this was originally going to be just a doodle but I liked it too much— I had to go full illustration. Ahhhhhh. I imagine this is a photograph hanging in the Bayley house, and one day when Dirt is all grown up Beau just looks at it and feels all the feels— good and bad. And maybe Sage catches him holding back tears and gets one of those rare-comfort-husband moments.
I’m actually sad and guilty for Harver not being in this picture LOL. Even though he’s not their ...

So, as I mentioned in a previous poll, I am making a book out of all my doodles from the last 4ish years! You guys voted on calling it "The Scenic Route" so that's what I went with (and thanks Rowdy for the suggestion in the first place!) I just finished uploading everything and ordering the proof copy for myself.... and I'll probably have some editing to do after I see it in person, but with a little luck I think I'll be getting these in stock sometime next month! :) Kinda fun and crazy how ...

I'm trying to decide on a title for my book of doodles that I'm putting together... and I'm torn between two, so maybe you guys can help me pick one!
"The Long Way Home" sounds... cuter? More meaningful? More sentimental?
"The Scenic Route" sounds more leisurely and relaxed. I'm not sure which one fits the overall VIBE for all my doodles, so let me know!
(Also, y'all there's 117 pages and over EIGHT HUNDRED doodles in this book).

Well the last update was a little late, so I thought I'd give you this one a little early~! I'm not in the best place right now to stick to a hard 7-day schedule so I'll give and take where I can until I get back on track.
And speaking of back on track... we're back to the hotel bathroom floor with Judas, hungover and guilty as ever for his actions back then. We've seen him mention this to Jaxsen at least once, and maybe more to himself.... but this "I fucked up" mentality really stems,...

Finally feeling a little more.... put together after the last two weeks of meh. My update this week is on the shorter side, and I've made enough progress not to be too stressed, which is good because I really needed some wiggle room. lol.
wiggle room = doodles. <3 the Fletch and Judas one had been sitting unfinished for a while, so it kinda got lumped into this set of the new characters, but thats's okay. I'll pretend they're looking fondly into the future of Mccull storytelling.

I was thinking.... "Damn I need to do another mini comic because it's been a while, but I have no good ideas right now" and somehow came up with this nonsense because I saw a TikTok video that reminded me of them. LOL. This was the best I could do right now I guess...
(It's actually not lack of ideas, it's more that the ideas I DO have would take much longer and I can't devote as much time to them lol.)
So, you get a silly, low-quality Beau and Sage! Beau is probably thinking "O...

I don't think anyone really nailed it in the comments, but you've all had a general understanding of the fall out up until now, I think). What might come as a surprise is that Judas didn't quit on his own at all... He got screwed over. ...

I was thinking; since I'm not going to do a kickstarter for Volume 3 of TLLT, it might be fun to compile all of my doodles from the last couple years into a physical book?? Would you guys be interested in buying something like that? It wouldn't be too hard to format... I'd just have organize the doodles (probably by couples/stories hehe) And I like the idea of having it for my own bookshelf tbh! I've seen other artists sell art books before too.

So, I'm not in a hurry. I'm also not great at graphic design in general though, so any feedback is welcome!

This one is going to be worth reading! Especially for you long term fans who have read my previous works "ARCO" and "Periwinkle Blue".
I want to start out with a little bit of context... As I get more towards the end of TLLT and closer to creating my next story, I want to be totally transparent about my plans. One of the things I plan on doing soon is removing Periwinkle Blue from Webtoon. Webtoon is constantly tightening their grip on "mature" comics. And if you k...

Adding another character to my "character profile" folder! It's Arco Valentine! Way back when I was still finishing up TME as a comic, I started the story "ARCO" to go along with it. I don't exactly remember what struck me at the time, and made me want to write about a marine biology internship, but I DO remember thinking I was somewhat of a genius for making a main character that was cousins with Aaron LOL. Looking back, it's... really not that big of a deal. But, still. I can't imagine Arco...

I'd love to know how Judas and Jaxsen ended up in the middle, because I think Fletch would much prefer to be there, getting both sides of the coin, yknow? Instead, he's at the back, finishing first while Judas is left to do most of the work. xD His LEAST favorite thing.
