Father Zamora: Why I Made a 100-Year-Old Filipino Priest the Hero of My Horror Story

The Price Tag Isn't on the Comic, it's on the Dream Behind It.
The price of your work isn't measured by the paper it's printed on. It's measured by the years you refused to give up before anyone could hold it in their hands.

The Dream Sitting in My Sketchbook Is Finally Becoming Real
The distance between a dream and reality is rarely talent. More often, it's the habit of showing up when nobody is watching. One page at a time. One hour at a time. One decision at a time.
