It’s Moby Dick: or, the Webcomic’s 4th birthday today! So so delighted and excited to have made it this far, and for everything still to come.
Just about a week ago, (about when I thought I would), I finally finished the thumbnails for ch3! It’s gonna be a long one, but I’m so so excited for it. Can’t wait for y’all to meet one of my favorite characters. Can’t wait for the juicy drama. Can’t wait for y’all to see an actual proper whale hunt! And more shenanigans, nautical nonsense, queer delight, and other such miscellaneous happenings.
We’re still shooting for / on track for an initial start date of sometime this summer, and I will absolutely update with a more specific start date as soon as I have a better idea of that, but yeah! Chapter 3 pages are properly underway!
extremely excited for chapter 3, and the rest of this story. thanks so much to everyone for reading 💖💖🐋🐋

"You know, love doesn't mean "l never want you to change." But I don't think it means "I don't care if you change" either. So I suppose it might mean, "I believe that you'll always be the person I adore." A declaration of faith, perhaps."

Winter mornings at home: soft light, coffee, the faint sound of bells from the church, cyclists ticking by, a few more minutes in bed with a book
