The Election – A Goodbye
Thanks for joining me on this month’s storyline. Chapter Four is over, but Chapter Five starts Tuesday!
Current Post On Trae’s Blog:
One year ago, on April 16th 2024, the first page of Peregrine Lake went online. One year since we first met Bev as she drove through a snow storm and said the exact thing most of us have said in that scenario.
It took so long for Peregrine Lake to get off the ground. I first announced it back in December of 2019, and originally I was going to draw it. And then the world fell apart, and I found myself with zero ability to draw it anymore. I kept kicking the idea around, wanting to move it forward when in 2023 I jokingly suggested to my friend Ethan that they could draw the comic for me.
And they said yes, they'd love to, and I am not one to look a gift horse in the mouth.
We then spent almost a year regularly meeting, talking about my plans for the plots, the world, the characters, and all the things that would have otherwise just lived in my head. I started scripting comics, and Ethan got to work on concept art. And for most of 2023 we planned and got ready, and we hit the ground running in 2024.
And now we're here. Honestly, I love everything we've put out over the last year. Ethan's art is incredible, and tells the story in a way that I'm not sure mine would have. I love this comic, I love that you all are reading it, and I'm excited to show you what's coming next.
Because we've only just scratched the surface on how weird this is going to get.
On April 26th I'm going to be at Concinnity in Milwaukee, WI! Stop on by and say hi if you're in town!

yea she won’t be missed
not even bothering to tell your long time BF you were thinking of leaving town. that cold
door..hit…ass..out.. etc.
I don’t know – “I took the job in Chicago” implies Tara had told Lynn there WAS a job in Chicago she was trying to get. Lynn just didn’t know that Tara had gotten an offer.
bf= boyfriend not best friend sorry if that wasn’t clear
Ah. I guess since that was so long ago I didn’t think about it.
wow… in hindsight she wasn’t with the con very long.
Four years isn’t that long? That’s not atypical for college town cons.
It’s rather interesting how the plot ends with someone who was one of the main cast leaving.
Chicago’s too far to staff a con in Wisconsin? Wow.
(No no, I know most cons are very local. For Anthrocon though, we presently only have one of our ten Directors in the same state as the convention, and he lives a 4.5 hour drive away. We email a lot.)
Bork Con is run in a fictional town in north western Wisconsin, about five to six hours away from Chicago
and since BC holds all their board meetings IRL thats not feasible to do weekly
