  • Someone has to stay up, and it was never going to be the small one with the lantern. The owl has not blinked since Tuesday.

  • A library that gave up on shelves and never went back. Four of the residents are technically overdue and none of them are worried.

  • Drawn for a brief about automation that the client cancelled a week later. The small one filed a complaint and lost.

  • An astronaut drawn for a friend who moved away. The stars are the actual sky from the night they left, more or less.

  • Proof that a creature can be all appetite and still read as friendly if you get the pink right. Getting the pink right took a month.

  • Drawn for a label that wanted the sound visible from the back of the room. The one sitting in the bell has been asking for a lid ever since.

  • The moment before the curtain, drawn from the wrong side of it. Everyone out there is just eyes, which is roughly how it feels.

  • Drawn the morning after a deadline that had already moved twice. The one in the gearbox is not sorry and is not getting out.

  • The character who was cut from the pitch and refused to leave the sketchbook. Third appearance this year, and the client still doesn't know.

  • Everything that ever went down the back of this sofa is still down there and has opinions. The remote has been three inches away since spring.

  • Every note, sketch and invoice that was going to be dealt with on Friday. It has been Friday here for some time.

  • The moment before anything happens, which is the only part anyone remembers. The hand belongs to nobody in particular.
