Description

Joan Gingerberry is a young woman grappling with the anxieties and uncertainty that come with adulthood—burdened by regret and trauma, she struggles to reconcile her past with her present. Often withdrawing into herself, Joan finds the one solace in her life being her childhood companions—stuffed animal dolls that come to life through magic. Among these companions is Roy, a charming rabbit and her dearest friend, who will remind her that it is okay to be sad, and most importantly, that it is valuable to learn to smile again…

This comic really pulls you in with its unique style and storytelling. Can’t wait to see where it goes next, Do you already have an idea of how many chapters this story will have or are you working on a new story as well?

@Owena: Thank you so much for reading and enjoying! Yes, I'm working on the next chapter as we speak. This chapter released per page on Webtoon & ComicFury since March of this year, Chapter 2 is already releasing updates. The story I imagine will last 10-15 Chapters. With maybe bonus shorts/comicstrips.


I am in fact planning another series, but that one will likely be vastly different in tone and genre, but of course I wouldn't want to work on anything too similar at the same time. :)


Thank you for following and engaging, I only just joined this site today.

This scene was so full of personality the family dynamic and tension came through perfectly did you base any of these characters or interactions on real family experiences
