Kudzu is so crazy man! the way it spreads out feels like its a malevolent sentient demon

tons of kudzu vines clinging to a forest treeline

kudzu growing up a phone pole then over the wires, assuming the accidental form of a spooky guy

wow, damn, its even more kudzu on a forest edge! theres enough of it we need to take a big step back to get the whole thing in our field of vision.

Am I still alive

An illustration featuring Bill Hargrove, the secondary protagonist of the graphic novel Blue Hollow. We see bill through a dark green doorway. The old, rotting blue-walled house is in shadows but he stands at the end of a long hall by an open window, the billowing curtain framing his head and shoulders and illuminating the curtain. He has turned back to look at you, as if stepping back from some private emotional ledge. You can’t tell if he’s lonely or already a ghost in his own mind.

river home

a three panel comic page from the webcomic series Blue Hollow. The first panel shows protagonist Onion Pendergrass walking through american chestnut branches in the rain. His face is banged up and small green forest spirits float around him. The second panel we see onion walking down a riverlike trickle of rain flowing downhill through the woods. The rain only comes in between select branches, making small waterfalls. Onion is accompanied by a long wormlike green spirit. the final panel sees him coming up on his house, half buried in the weeds. It looks small and shitty. His little worm friend watches on too.

don't go yet

in a surreal wooded night time setting, two boys stand on the surface of a lake. One, tinted green, holds the other one close, tinted blue. The blue boy is covered by a translucent shroud which blows back from him where he's held. Fireflies dot his path. You get the sense this place isn't for humans.

But there are those other voices too, the ones that don’t belong to me. Those are the ones that really matter. More than me. More than anything. The tender plea of love and reason. The voices that are always saying,

almost elegy (*suicide trigger warning) (1/2)

Should I jump out this window?

/open window w curtains billowing

Bipolar is always a ride. It affects your ability to get life insurance, because we keep jumping out of windows. In one day I can think “this is the best day ever” but 2 hours later, I consider jumping out of a window.

/different types of windows:

I often look out the window. Different ones. Is this high enough to die on impact? Are there people around? No children? Would I pass out first? Or would I just break my leg and lie there in agony?

I often think of the suicides which are hereditary to my family, but that’s another story.

/skyscraper apt
I had a friend in high school who jumped out a window. He hit a rich man’s BMW and then that man sued my friend’s mom for damages to his car. It’s that kind of world.

/casket
But I’ll always remember what happened afterward. The tearful funeral speech of his best friend. The open casket. How many people his life had touched, mine included.

/open window w thunderstorm
I know how it destroys the lives of the people you leave behind. I have been one of them, lately and more than once. My family and friends already have enough experience with this, so I think of them first. But I would never blame those who make the choice to go. Sometimes, even with medication, the weight is just too heavy.

Great news everyone, the skull has arrived. These are all found already decayed out in the wild, my friend said he also does this on his property, so I might fuck around and build an army of skeleton stags

I had hoped you wouldn't say it

Appalachian teen delinquent Onion Pendergrass kneels in the dirty street to pick up his scattered possessions, though he's looking up at you with a certain reluctant acceptance. What did you just say to him??

keep back

a character sheet of the second protagonist of the graphic novel Blue Hollow. Bill Hargrove, teen stinker and generally unfriendly recluse, leans heavily on anger and nastiness to keep people from getting too close to him, a problem his love interest Onion will do his best to rectify. Bill is in a grey hoodie and jeans, and a few full body poses show him with a magical looking blue sword. (a sword with a name, a good name, for later in the story.)

may the circle be unbroken

Ronnie Pendergrass, father of the protagonist from the comic Blue Hollow, stands knee-high in the river looking back at you with a loving expression which might be "goodbye." He's got a fishing pole over one shoulder and behind him in the water, a giant grass stag waits for him, its antlers like birch trees full of autumn leaves.

It's all a circle, onion sprout. You, me, any of this? We're perennial, just like grass that grows and dies away again. Can you see how I mean?

a father and son with bare feet walk past an overgrown, open gate with a vegetable garden visible in the distance. The wood gate has a Pennsylvania-dutch hex sign representing growth and stability. The father and son are Ronnie and Onion, from the graphic novel Blue Hollow. Their relationship is something treasured. You get the sense Ronnie has the wiseness of a wizard, and the kindness of an angel, or is this only a child's perspective? Onion jogs to keep up with him, a trail of chicks following him from the chicken coop.

riches

all four teen protagonists for the graphic novel Blue Hollow are sitting on an old busted floral couch in a grassy field in the bright daytime. Boone Campbell, long brown hair in a blue cutoff, sits on the arm of the couch looking down at Cookie the dog as she jumps up to greet him. Maple Choi, bike shorts and pink socks, throws a loose arm over the back of the couch with a sardonic smirk. Onion Pendergrass, brown hair, ripped jeans with a camo jacket, leans forward on the edge of the couch with a hopeful smile. Just behind him, back flush with the couch, Bill Hargrove, in a gray hoodie and bare feet, offers a tired smile. His toes barely caress the outside of Onion's knee. Butterflies speckle the scene. Everybody is happy... They have a certain easy closeness.

a questionably dumb young man with center parted long brown hair and a letterman jacket nervously twists a gold crucifix around one finger. Boone Campbell, age 17, is one of the main teenage protagonists from the graphic novel, Blue Hollow. He likes fast cars, the lord, and collecting rare beetles, but these simple things became dramatically less simple when he helped perpetrate a crime against his best friend Onion that left him emotionally stunted, socially regressive and mentally lost. Suffering from the regrets of this past horrible transgression, Boone will do everything in his power now to make things right with Onion again. Now if he can only figure out what to do first......

the young master's troubles

Bill Hargrove, age 16, is one of the 3 teenage protagonists of the graphic novel Blue Hollow. He is mixed race, dressed in a formal sweater in slacks, but he's unkempt and off-kilter, throwing a leg over the arm of a chair with a bravado that speaks of a loss of patience. Cookie the dog stands guard at his knee. Bill is a very tired young man who is mentally unwell for a variety of reasons (ghost and/or family-related), and the illustration shows him reclined in an armchair in the library in evening, suggestively splitting the pages of a book open while looking up at you. You're not sure if what he has to say will be sarcastic or heartbreaking.

heart of the mountain

the drawing is a green-saturated illustration featuring a mysterious young woman from the graphic novel project, Blue Hollow. She has on an old timey simple green dress with belle sleeves, has very long white curly hair, no shoes, and reaches out to you as if beckoning you to follow. She just barely touches the surface of black water with a toe, and a sheer shroud over her head blows in the wind. Behind her is a mighty weeping willow on flat black. She is someone very important, but kept a treasured secret away from the prying eyes of anyone who once knew her.
