i was real hyped to get some drawing links in my inbox today. my pal jess does tarot readings, and she does one for me once a week. she has three different decks and we use them all. it's nice to get reassuring messages from the universe, to see the beautiful art, and to connect with a friend. it's fun too, to see which cards come back over and over, and become like old friends.
i also suddenly feel like maybe i've said this before, but my brain is a sieve so please ignore me if i'm repeating myself XD i hope you're doing well, and i hope you know how much we all love your comics, even if in the future they weren't about anything in particular. don't put too much pressure on yourself to say something in particular. (easier said than done, obv.) ...but of course if you just want a break because life is changing in a big way and so is your bod, that's also totally legit!
Hey Edith, I just rediscovered your work on instagram and realized I'm an unpaid subscriber here. I'd love to gain access to your locked work - love your comics! Is there any way to become a paid subscriber to gain access to the archive? Let me know
Hey Elisabeth, thank you! I paused paid subscriptions while I took some time off (and they're still paused because I don't yet know what the situation is), which freezes that option, but I'll unpause them now, which should take effect within the next few mins/hour or so. And then later today I'll probably pause them again. I realize this is kind of insane. But thank you for asking!
I think I'm going to re-pause subs soon -- I hope they got to working again, but I am not entirely sure. You're also welcome to Venmo me $5 or $40 and I will add you to the list!
So happy to see Drawing Links again! You *do* have something to say, namely, that everything we see about pregnancy being so blissful and thrilling and fulfilling may just not be true for everybody. I would have been glad to know that when I was pregnant. xo

Nice! Doesn't seem like it's working quite yet but I'll try to get in there w/ in the unpaused window
And thank you!

Hey yeah I’ve checked back in a few times but doesn’t seem to be changing : /
That would be great! I’ll try to find you on there
I love all you write & draw!
Good luck with the pregnancy—it does get better, esp once baby is out! But then wait another 3mos! So first 3mos of pregnancy & first 3mos of baby!!!
Thank you, Bonnie! Also, this is very good advice....
Welcome
I am glad it may help! 😊
Think about changes in what inspires you to draw a shifting into new directions to explore. I'd love to see more of your tarot cards.

Edith is just such a card some days!
Loved this! I was thrilled to see your email in my inbox.
Thanks, Jason!
