I love the notebook on your crushes. I am in the process of going through all my art journals and taking out the things I think work. The idea of condensing them into another working art journal sounds insightful and useful. Thank you for sharing.
What a beautiful comic, Carolyn! I revisited some of my high school diaries (and recreated them in my graphic memoir, lol) and it was super cringey, but I came to feel somewhat maternal toward that long-ago self. Thanks for the Suskin book rec!
I love your comic, Carolyn 💛 I could totally see how going through old journals would make my cheeks burn (and just generally feel like an overwhelming task!), but part of me would love to see the patterns and throughlines of my life experience. Definitely feeling drawn to do this!
