[[LARA and FRANCINE at the bake sale.]]
LARA: I don't understand. Why are your cookies selling so well, when mine have barely moved?
FRANCINE: Maybe because mine are homemade? No store-bought dough for me, just good ol' Betty Crocker mix. And they're delicious!
LARA: I GREW my own WHEAT. Milled the flour with a stone dug up from my yard. BUILT the oven out of bricks I SCULPTED MYSELF. Even EVOLVED A CHICKEN OUT OF A SALAMANDER to get EGGS.
THESE
ARE
HOME
MADE
COOKIES.
FRANCINE: Well, are they any GOOD?
LARA: Why would THAT matter?

My favorite line that didn't make it into the final draft of this comic: 'I made my SCRATCH from scratch'
The computers tell me it was 20 years ago, June 9, 2006, that I arrived in New York for my first-ever comic convention as an exhibitor, MoCCA.
It was an important trip for me, a milestone in what would go on to become my career.
I wrote a little reminiscence on Patreon (free/unlocked) — including a first-since-then reprint of the photocomics I made at the time, documenting the trip!
