FOLEY: Writer. Artist. Hardworking dame.

Foley here. I write. I draw. I have a loving wife, two fat cats and a cool house in Portland, Oregon. My first novel, Against the Tide, is a hard hitting action adventure full of bad ass women who make crap life decisions.

  • Zoe & Jones: Making Friends

    Finished up a little backstory mini comic. You can find it here.

    This is how Zoe and Jones first meet.

    I love their friendship. I love that it’s platonic. I love that he’s basically her surrogate big brother. I love how protective and nurturing he is of her even when she’s being an asshole.  I love how she learns to rely on him and trust him.

    They have a true bromance.

  • A weekend well spent.

    Working on something that may or may not go anywhere. It’s not like I need yet another creative endeavor leeching my time and keeping me from sunlight. I’m pale enough as is.

    I’ve always loved a good adventure, real of fictitious. Writing my novel has allowed me to smoosh that love together with my appreciation of archeology and anthropology. But at some point I had to decide if my narrative was about the artifacts or the characters. Choosing one sacrificed the other. I’m happy with my decision, but this little side-side project might be a fun way to do an unadulterated adventure story. 

    It’s appealing. 

    We’ll see what happens, I guess.

Sketching out another expression chart. You’d almost think I was drawing a comic instead of writing a series of novels, huh?
I have a new short story that I need to clean up a little and illustrate before posting. That should only take a few days. I hope to post it this weekend, day job work load permitting.
