My grandmother died last night. This wasn't a shock or a surprise. Her health has been on the decline, and she's been in hospice for the last month. She lived a long life, and in her final days she was surrounded by her three adult children.
My grandma was a kind woman. She wasn't perfect, but I always felt loved in her presence. She was a retired kindergarten teacher, and was still working when I was a kid. I have so many happy memories sitting at her kitchen table, and I'm going to carry those with me for the rest of my life. She was also proof that anyone who claims that you get more conservative as you get older is full of shit, because she certainly didn't.
I think it's interesting how the body processes grief sometimes. I don't know that I'll cry, but over the past month, knowing this was coming, I've felt a tension in my gut. Now that she's passed, instead of relief that tension is replaced by a sense of emptiness. That something is missing that should still be there. Something has been taken away, and I feel it.
Of course, as I wrote that, I immediately started crying... so I guess my body processes grief in pretty ordinary ways too.
I wanted to come up with something profound linking this to Beltane, which we sit in the middle of right now, but it just seemed hackneyed. Like I was trying to dig out some greater significance when the truth is death comes whenever it wants. The only predictable thing about it is that it's the end of all of our journeys. I hope that when I pass I'm so lucky to have lived such a long life with people that I love around me in my final days.
For the record, I will be fine. I just needed to get these words out while they were still in my head. I don't have some rousing conclusion or deep insight to tack on here at the end, just that gut feeling that something is missing.
Because it is.

Welp, I guess that’s the answer to “now what will I read?”
It’s going to be super fun.
Agreed.
So long, and thanks for all the fish.
Trae, you did an amazing job with this comic. Sad to see it end, but it was a good run.
Best of luck on your next project.
Glad you enjoyed it. 🙂
Good luck on Peregrine Lake, I am not entirely sure I will be reading it though, it was the fact that there was a webcomic about staffing cons that brought me here and while I really like Lynn and Megan, well, we will see.
As for technology, just assume the most boring advancements and that is what we will have in 10 years.
Yeah, I know not everyone who read UnCONventional will jump on board with Peregrine Lake — that’s why it has a different title and is considered separate even though (arguably) the main character of UnCONventional is continuing as one of the leads.
If the people here just for the convention stories don’t read it, I won’t be offended. But the people who were into the personal stories may enjoy it.
Also, while it’ll still be a comedy, there’s gonna be spooky stuff. 😛
Neat. I originally came for the Convention related tales and cameos of people I know, but will stay (crossover?) for the tale telling and sense of humor.

I’m sad to the con aspect of the comic go away but I’m down to read about Peregrine Lake!
Same Ike, same. But hey, time to branch out a bit. We’ll see you next year, Trae
Hiya, kinda super late but I refound this comic recently.
Even if its been 4 years since I stopped (got removed/drama) this comic keeps resonating so so so relatable.
Thank you for thegood reed.

Is there any possibility that Peregrine Lake is going to come to fruition? This is still one of my favorite webcomics, hope so!
So I’ve done some work on it. At this point I don’t know if it’ll end up being a comic or something else though. The story will be told.
I don’t have a good timeline right now though, so I can’t make any promises about WHEN it’ll happen.
Took me a while, but it’s here.
