Rain
Comic 908 - Extra Day
Author Notes:
Once again, don't forget that the next update is the last page of the chapter, and that Chapter 31 will begin on February 6th. That's the Monday after next, which means we'll be returning to three updates per week by then! So once this chapter ends, don't forget to check back every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday for new pages. ^_^

Rain, all characters and all other aspects of the story are copyright material belonging to me.
Also, I already mentioned this on social media, but I wanted to share that I'm six months post-op today. I spent so much time struggling and feeling like I was failing to get anywhere and telling myself it would never happen. And now it's already been half a year since it DID happen.
Moral of the story: Never give up, folks. No matter how hopeless things may seem sometimes; always fight on (and that applies to a lot of things; not just trans stuff)! You can do it. I believe in you. ^_^
At least I didn't cut it off mid-sentence like that one time. Which, if I made this a two pager, that's pretty much exactly what would've happened. Trust me, I felt this was the lesser of two evil cliffhangers. ^^;
So I'm guessing next one is a two-pager probably having something to do with Emily asking about Rain's opinions with motherhood (based on the fact that she heard Rain talk about her earliest memory being "I want to be a mommy") which should be interesting.
On an unrelated note, Jocelyn, is there any chance you could sell digital versions of the compilation books? I REALLY want to read the bonus chapters, and I want to give you money for the comic, but I also don't have a place to store physical books. Even if PDFs of Rain cost the same as the print versions, I'd still buy them 'cause your comic is that good!
I'd gladly pay for offline digital books in full color. I'd even gladly pay *more* for them!
I just know this is going to be a question about Rain's "I want to be a Mommy" memory. And I have a feeling it is gonna be a heavy one.
Also, congratulations on being a half-year post op! *throws confetti with one hand while desperately hanging onto the cliff with the other*
DAMN YOU GENES FOR NOT LETTING ME BE ABLE TO GET PREGNANT !!!! :(

And my graduate work might be in Genetics, and if it is, my thesis will be in growing transwomen genetic matches of their own uterus. So, in like, 10-20 years, transwomen might be able to be pregnant with their own eggs. Maybe earlier if someone else is doing this work. (I always seem to have ideas that scientists do and release a few years later.)
Well, at least it's not February any more?
I mean aside from in real life. Since it's... February now. Can we not escape this month!?
The new page actually went up just a couple minutes before this post. ^_^
