Neighbours

You might notice that this post has an interesting effect. It’s because I thought it sucked and I tore it up. Which was very therapeutic at the time (those resonant ripping sounds! That slight resistance before my work was destroyed!) but I regretted it afterwards. So what if it sucked. This is a blog, a first draft, a thinking-out-loud, not a polished piece of work. I pieced the paper back together, which was also a satisfying act, then taped it and scanned it. I still think it needs work, but what the hell. Happy 2012! Expect more messy, half-finished work from me this year!

LET ME BE FRANK 
This first draft is awesome (per usual, I expect). I look forward to further messiness this year, Sarah! O – and your Fleet Foxes strip in Metro is likewise amazing x
I’m so glad you taped it back together because it so doesn’t suck! It’s funny! Thanks for saving it and posting it. xx H
Love the big hairy balls
Love the mess, embrace the mess, post the mess (which is actually awesome). But you can keep the cat with the starfish and kina butt! Happy new Year 🙂
Lovely – and I think the rips and creases are quite visually appealing!
Your neighbour sounds most interesting and the cat looks very cute!
Re the Sallies, an ex-Sally friend of mine recently showed me an apology (or at least a statement of regret for any hurt caused) that the Sallies made a few years ago for their opposition to homosexual law reform. Apparently it was only some within the organisation who were responsible for the anti-gay campaigning at the time, rather than it being a universally endorsed policy. I get the impression the Sallies are genuinely trying to mend their relationship with the LGBTI community.
