Fire in My Belly Cat Graffam

So excited to bring you all the latest episode featuring the amazing painter, Drew Riley. Her technical skills are ridiculous and her use of color and lighting in her figure work creates beautiful drama that bring them to life. She is also a passionate community organizer and started Gender Unbound, a trans and intersex art festival in Austin, TX that I enjoyed going to from 2016-2019. I hope you enjoy hearing the conversation!

In this episode of Fire in My Belly I have a fun and heartfelt conversation with my friend and amazing comics artist, Tess Scilipoti. Her comics are sincere, funny, beautifully drawn, and personally very relatable. We talk about growing up in Maine, reading Nevada, making art about joy, and whether September is a good name (spoiler it’s not).You can find her work on her website, tscilipoti.com

I am very excited to present ya'll with the newest episode of Fire in My Belly! This episode I am talking with comics artist and co-creator of the games We Know the Devil & Heaven Will Be Mine, Max Schwartz. We talk about how parts of We Know the Devil were made, battling perfectionism, and the fickleness of fandoms + tons of other stuff.

We Know The Devil is one the best games I have played in the last couple years, and certainly one of my favorite visual novels. If you haven't played it yet, go get it over on itch.io, steam, or for the switch!

You can find more of Max's work over on twitter @mightyatom and their website https://max.pictures/

In this episode I chat with friend, illustrator, and graphic novelist Mady G. Mads’ work is fun, loud, bright, and full of life. I adore their style, and they are a delightful human. In this episode we discuss weird 2000’s cartoons like Invader Zim and Ed Edd n Eddy, bowl cuts, terrible sex toys, and growing up as queer kids from New England.
