A 5-panel comic. Panel 1) The 4am feed with Henry can feel very lonely. Panel 2) I try to think of others that are also awake at that time like...nocturnal animals? Panel 3) Students studying for a test? Panel 4) And of course, people doing the same thing as me. Panel 5) When I think about them, I feel much less alone.

Being a Graphic Novel/Comics creator and taking part in #DVPit was interesting, but not a lot of agents are in that zone. Hope more will join the next foray. Thanks to the friends who persuaded me to take part. Much loveπŸ’–
