This is the fourth time I’ve been drawn back to your webcomic. It is realling getting in the way of my adulting. (but then so is the sciatica and rotator cuff injury. I wonder why people aren’t making comments. I have no intention of making comments till me second or third time rereading, but I know lots of people my age have slowed way down on their reading speed. In my old age, I’ve slowed to 1000 wpm or less. I’m also going to dedicate a reread to ‘ambience’ so I can enjoy the mood. Wendi Pini was a great one for putting all sorts of series advances in her backgrounds. If Love not Found came out in handheld print I would definitely buy it.
Thoroughly enjoyed in multiple readings. First of all, the whole dedication to botany is ridiculously funny, since botany is basically the study of sex, and all those booful flowers are nothing more than sexual organs. (Had a blast and earned an A in biology once I realized twas the study of sex across the kingdoms of plants, animals and microbes) Social acceptance of “partners” in different genders is also very well done, altho I do wish some exploration of triple committed relationships (Terry Moore really fell down on this in Strangers in Paradise, after whetting my appetite by having Francine tell Katchoo at least twice that if Katchoo was sending David away, that she [Francine] would take him. Moore really frustrated me when he had all Katchoo’s problems-rape, abuse, addiction etc solved by nothing more than a good f*ck and a baby Doesn’t matter that it was Francine finally admitting her attraction to Katchoo, the message was that the traditional patriarchal answer- only in a same sex relationship- was aggravating)
Lastly I somehow got the concept that there were “fosters” doing the actual physical care of infants and very young children? I’d like to see some of this explored. I did the home birth, extended breastfeeding even while employed, family bed and child-led parenting in my time, so the “touchless” society is anathema to me.
omg so cute

If handheld print means in print, volumes 1 and 1 are available in the author’s Etsy shop https://www.etsy.com/listing/998075629/love-not-found-vol1-graphic-novel
