He needed a ride, so Caro offered to drive him to the show.
Turns out those cheer moves work great in the pit.

a Mil-Liminal update FINALLY. This one took a bit longer cuz I had to rewrite it a bit to fit the web version. In the book, this is told from johns pov, but the scenes were added later, so in the webcomic, you get it from Caro’s pov! Enjoy, this update has some of my very fave panel work. Don’t forget to tell me what you think here or in the comments! SDTRK: the freshman by the verve pipe
Read Mil-Liminal on Webtoon and Tapas! Read ahead on my patreon or buy the book from Ko-fi!
#comic updates#milliminal#ghost stories#relationships#im in love with this seattle panel#but really every panel in this update ugh

This better be where the weirds end up because I am a geriatric millennial and may not have it in me to learn another g-d platform.

One of the questions I get asked a lot is how I got here. There is no magic answer and I didn’t do it alone. I’m part of a wonderful community of creatives who support one another. I don’t believe that one person shines brighter than another, if anything we all have our talents and we, like the stars, shine brighter at different times. We each have our moments and we share in each other’s successes and we feel our failures.
The great thing about this is when I feel like I have worked hard and I’m proud of one particular thing, I say “Hey guys, look”. In return, I do the same for them. Each helping to reduce the fear that grows with having a presence online.
The Fear.
Every blogger, writer, content creator, artist, creative, you name it, has felt the fear from big offices to those typing at their dining table. That dread of releasing something they love out into the world. They have no control over how it will be received and that is terrifying. This thing that they have lovingly produced, spent time on, cried over, vowed never to create again, but there it is out in the world being enjoyed, loved, shared or sometimes ignored by others. That process has a little bit of fear attached to it. It’s unnerving to step out into the world and say “This is Me”. What if no one likes it? What if it’s taken the wrong way etc.
Yup. That fear. I gave in to that for a long time. I’m still nervous when I record my podcasts. I’m still nervous when I write and share my work. When I pitch collaboration ideas, yup, fear But and this is a big BUT I don’t let it stop me. When I’m really scared I turn to my friends that live in my phone, because like me, they never seem to sleep. I tell them why I’m scared. I voice the fears I have or ideas I’m trying to wrangle together into a tangible thing and guess what?
They never laugh. They help to mould a thought process, massage an idea into being. Although the blog and podcast are mine, I am never alone and I never created anything alone.
The podcast grew because of the wonderful guests that came on the show in Season 1. The ones who took a chance on me having never heard my work before. It grew because of EYF and the media lounge and Louise Scollay and Jo Millimine talking sense into me. Let’s face it EYF has always supported creatives. My work grew slowly and organically. Because I listen to Kate O’Sullivan in her workshops not because I trusted her completely (which I do) but because what she said aligned with my own thoughts. I dug deep to find what I truly love but it didn’t hit me suddenly, it evolved with a year of creative play.
It also grew because I treated it like a job. I have an editorial calendar that every now and then falls behind and goes through a crisis that life inevitably throws my way. I tried to release only what I truly loved even though I never had a pinned down direction. It grew because of a wonderfully receptive audience who waited 2 weeks between episodes, who subscribed and shared the content. Each lending their hand to share my creations. Can my work be better? Can I create better images, write better posts? Yes but we all need the space to learn, grow and develop.
Sheer Force of Will.
The fear never goes away and I think it can actually help to be a little scared. It is a good thing, in moderation But you need to be brave. You need to create your idea; bring it to life with a sheer force of will. As much as there is an amazing community out there who will have your back there are always others who don’t. They may not like what you create, they would do things differently. This is my one piece of advice to that:
Hear the feedback /criticism but listen to your gut.
No one can find your direction for you. You need to explore and find your groove. Surround yourself with other creatives and bloggers. Step outside your niche if you have one. If you don’t have a community find one that aligns with your thoughts and goals. Somewhere you can be you. You can join our group here but you don’t have too. I have a close core group that is amazing but I have different groups for photography, knitting, craft and creative writing. I am endlessly thankful to each and every person who chats with me and if you don’t think I’m nervous pressing publish to this post, you would be wrong. That little unease in your stomach, I have come to learn that’s a good thing.
Alone we fall prey to our fears but together we build something truly great. Brick by brick. So next time your scared, reach out and find that sounding board that you need.
Screw the naysayers. There is enough badness in this world. Be part of a community that brings us together and pushes us to excel and achieve greater things.
Today, be a little bit brave.

Happy Acespec Day from your friendly neighborhood Grey-Ace author! 41 turns around the sun for me, born on this most perfect of days. Of course, i had to make my annual Ace Art of my oc Johnny O’Sullivan in all his teenage glory for this year, because I realized I have never made a piece of his younger self, and because his young version is a reflection of me in so many ways, it felt right.
You can read his story in my webcomics Seemingly Dark, and Mil-Liminal, or you can read his asexual experience in a mini comic I did called Ace of Hearts, on Tapas HERE or on Webtoon HERE. 🖤🤍💜
Feel free to use as a phone background, and if you’d prefer the dark mode version of that let me know, I’ll send you a file. Happy day of loving yourself to all my Ace followers!

👻 IT'S HERE! PRESENTING CARO GREENE'S MIL-LIMINAL-THE PODCAST! 👻
Consider this a soft launch cuz i know it's not live on ALL services yet, but you can now listen to the introduction episode of Caro's podcast, Mil-Liminal on Youtube, Podcast Addict, Podbean, and Spotify, and probably more cuz idk how distribution works.
There will be a full length episode soon, but for now, take a listen to the intro, and if you like it, share it to your friends to help people find it! Its written in a way anyone can jump in, even if they aren't familiar with the comics or characters. Thank you SO MUCH for all the support getting here, I'm so happy to finally be able to do this!
Mil-Liminal is a cozy horror podcast featuring the charming and slightly unhinged Caro Greene, an employee working the counter during the night shift at a tiny gas station in the middle of the woods. Join their journey of witnessing the unexplainable! Liminal spaces, ghosts and ghouls galore, there won't be any jump-scares or hopelessness, just unsettling vibes with moments of comedy to lighten the mood. The podcast is in canonical order, meaning the first episode is Caro's first 'episode' as well, learning as they go to create their podcast.
#original characters#mil-Liminal podcast#milliminal#ghost stories#podcasts#horror#asmr voice#liminal spaces#cryptids#HELP IM SO EXCITED#i hope you like it this is very scary#go take a listen and report back#oh and PLEASE share if you do like it!

WHEW Part one of Caro and John’s history and lore-dump. Obviously you can read more about them in depth in either of my webcomics Seemingly Dark and Mil-Liminal, but this has some stuff that isn’t addressed there so that’s fun! Exclusive content and you ain’t even have to be on my discord server. Part two coming some day, but not today. The formatting might be a bit awk because this was built for instagram but hopefully it’s alight, considering y’all were really the ones who asked for it haha.
Q’s below or in my ask box! Yes I love fan art, fan fics and cosplay PLEASE.
SDTRK is: You Had to Be There but the Mighty Mighty Bosstones in tradition of adding a song on my comic updates.

Next prompt! not the right sord, cuz I realize that’s a probably a ref to something lmao but a sword none the less, hopefully satisfactory!
I had a lot of fun with this, even though I’m having a no good very bad terrible rotten crummy day, it’s one of my faves yet! I hope you like it too.
Caro is a character from my comics and podcast Mil-Liminal (and Seemingly Dark)

Uhhhh this art is a whole year old and I can’t find it on tumblr so I guess I never posted it? Who knows. But even if my lineart style is a bit outdated, I still think it’s a really pretty piece, done in the Ace of Hearts palette which is my fave. So you get to have it, one year later.

I did these little ‘How it Started vs How it’s Going’ pieces so include in the physical version of their comic and I am in love with them. I think John always kinda knew he was in love with Caro, he had his Oh! Moment when they were teens, and it was more like, ‘oh yeah this makes sense. Of course.’ He wasn’t surprised. Caro obviously always cared for and liked him, but I like to think their OH! moment came when they saw him again for the first time as adults. Caro doesn’t catch feels the way most people do, so it took them a little longer to recognize.
Johnny (he/him) and Caro (they/them) are my original characters, you can read about them in my comics Seemingly Dark and Mil-Liminal
