Let's talk about… books! I read Treasure Island in high school. It was one of my favorites, but my classmates hated it. They preferred Ethan Frome (which I hated…). I love the Muppets' version of it too, especially Tim Curry – one of my favorite actors. The first books I read were Secret Garden, Little House on the Prairie, and Wrinkle in Time.

Here are a few backstage notes for this page. Again, I received grief from my roommates over the design of the parents. I had decided that with this set of kids, one should be blond and one dark-haired. In any case, I didn't mean them to have haunting similarities to any other couple. I swear I didn't.

And here's one note from my real life. Gael's new dagger arrived. Great. Like she needs more weapons… Her collection of poisons and herbs concerns me enough.

Locoma: lol. Yeah, that's Gael. She mostly lurks quietly, but now and then has to give her two cents (or torment me)… Kids don't show up much in my comic. Too much scary stuff goes on. But they are necessary to bring out certain traits in the main cast. ;-)

Peipei: Babies like me. I don't know why. Babies are strange creatures. In this case, Jon seems to like Kaida. She does look a little like “Mom.”
