Donna, these are so funny – right from the opening banner. Sometimes a tinge of sadness too. Mostly hilarious. I’m quite sure the ancient Egyptians would (or maybe do – who knows) appreciate that you’re keeping their art and traditions alive. So to speak.
Also, those “pharoah pillows” – yeah, I’ve seen them in museums. “To preserve hairstyles” is the explanation I’ve seen most often – glad you’ve got it there too. Hard to imagine. But they’d have a hard time imagining Twitter. Different era.
I seriously want a book with the whole series. Ancient Egypt lives in the corner where I keep stuff that inspires and guides me. Like, seriously, I have Djed necklace which got me through a hard time. So these go straight into my heart. And they’re comics!! 🥰

Thanks, Mariah. Maybe writing on a wall in a pyramid or tomb, or inside a coffin case is the same as twitter? I doubt twitter will last as long tho!
