CURRENT MISSION

I'm looking to explore cities and meet cool people while I'm traveling for comic book conventions I table at, & doing a small comics readings tour!

ABOUT ME

Hi! I'm 26-year-old maker & cartoonist, queer-ID'ed trans woman. "She" pronouns.

My stuff is at http://anniemakesstories.com/ and http://anniemok.tumblr.com/

I like communication and boundaries, talking, food, coffee, pets, records, jokes, comics, and exploring.

PHILOSOPHY

I like to do things that benefit me, and I try to respect everyone I come in contact with. I like to make things that I get pleasure out of, with the hope that others will find pleasure in them, too.

Movies by Woody Allen, Jim Jarmusch, & Miyazaki
I love horror movies from the 30s to the 60s, but I've seen few and wanna see more Hammer horror, Universal horror, and Val Lewton movies (seen none of the latter, I hear so many things).
Music: Television Personalities, Richard Hell & the Vodoids, Robyn, Neil Young, Duke Ellington, lots of punk and post-punk, also like country (Hank Williams etc) and hip-hop (Nas, Jay-Z)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Survived a lot of bad things. Transitioned. Self-published. Collaborated with really wonderful artists.

Teach, Learn, Share

I like talking about drawing, printing, and publishing. I really like swapping talk about storytelling and writing.
