OK, it&#8217;s mostly older stuff, but I&#8217;ll take what I can get. She has a couple of big projects in the works anyway, so there should be more available in the next couple of years. I&#8217;m guessing this is all older stuff but, like I said, that&#8217;s only a guess. There are stories in here about birds watching women wrestle, Lauren freaking out at college, a girl helping her boyfriend through the tail end of an acid trip, a dead baby bird, a cat on the pill, Lauren trying to change her parents, and Morrissey. Ah, Morrissey. This is a comic that Lauren did when she was 13 and she was kind enough to put a bunch of the best message board responses that she got at the time. This book, as a whole, doesn&#8217;t measure up against Inside Vineland, but I don&#8217;t think it was meant to. This is a collection of great stuff that&#8217;ll tide you over if you read IV and loved it but don&#8217;t want to wait until her other projects to finish up. If I&#8217;m remembering correctly I paid $4 for this (it&#8217;s pretty big), check out the contact info up there for more info!<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/images\/iheartbecky2.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Website I Heart Becky Hooray for more stuff from Lauren!
