Say hi to Finn-Tuan Le, the main character of the comic I'm currently working on!

With a very near-future setting and the first volume basically being a roadtrip between #Nürnberg and #Ansbach, this illustration doesn't really give away it's genre. But drastic environmental changes (and a touch of fantasy because rule of cool) lead to a slow but thorough breakdown of globalization and now people have to rebuild a more resilient society.

Watercolor drawing of a comic character, resting one foot on lime green foldable bike and holding a phone in his hand. he‘s looking confidently into the distance, his clothes show signs of mending. In the background you can see green hills and forests before a blue cloudy sky.
Same as before, but without the background

From my hopeful climate fiction series, Nothing is Promised, the 4th book, published Mar 2023, and I SWEAR... this was not a supposed Trump character. This was evidence that anyone talking of invading Canada was *obviously* a lunatic.

And here we are. Lunatics in charge.

The question now is "how do we stop them?"

(btw first book is free in the series: susankayequinn.com/series/noth )

“This is something... new.” Thomas seemed to wrestle with his conscience for a moment. Nitara couldn’t tell which side won, but he gave a look of disgust. “I'm not supposed to tell you anything. And I’'m not going to breach any confidences. The truth is, I don’t have any information you’d find useful anyway.” “Try me.” “There’s crazy talk in the cabinet.” Thomas had dropped his voice. “Things like the U.S. positioning ourselves now.” At Nitara’s skeptical look, Thomas held up a hand. “I'm not saying the President is contemplating any of those things. I'm just saying there’s some crazy shit coming out of DC on the down low, and no one knows what to make of it.”

The fascist firehose is meant to terrify & disable & leave you hopeless & helpless.

You are not.

The podcast I just released talks about how to stay out of that trap & reclaim your bandwidth and joy (and how hopeful #climatefiction can be a powerful tool in your survival toolkit).
