I was honoured to have done a comics-only issue for @TheCircular_ a month or two back. But it’s really the issues where comics are presented alongside other works in prose, poetry, journalism, etc - that’s where comics get elevated.
'When it comes to understanding landscape, community, history & our place within them, I'm often struck by the inadequacy of words. The graphic narratives collected here offer different ways of representing interconnectivity across space.' @JshSantospirito bit.ly/3Q54Fh2

Really loving how @TheCircular_ has begun to regularly include comics in their weekly roundup of pre-existing online literature. Hope they get more funding to continue the good work.
Presenting our final issue...for now. We'll return when (funding) conditions permit! Until we come back, so long and thanks for all the fish ('fish' being all the moral support and enthusiasm we've received during this first run)! 🐬 bit.ly/3BnQbVG

Thank you for including my essay Helpless. Writing this piece was cathartic and heartbreaking. I hope some readers get peace from it.
