This is page crop of my lil' undead unicorn from a picture book I hope to someday find a home for! :-) I prob shouldn't have used so many muted colors but I thought it fit the undead theme. 😅

Photo of a hand-drawn, 4 panel comic, writer in front of computer gradually sinking down beneath desk. Handwritten title: "I love social media but if I'm not careful, here's how it can make me feel sometimes..." The drawing is on a piece of paper with torn edges, and we can see a colored pencil on each side of the piece of paper.

It can be so hard NOT to compare yourself to others sometimes, esp when browsing social media. To avoid getting sucked into a black hole of envy/resentment, try VERY hard to focus on enjoying your own journey at your own pace. Find your own joy.
