Hourly comics day is February 1st of every year, and it's pretty self explanitory -- you just have to draw an autobiographical comic of every hour of your day!

I've participated in 2017, 2018, 2020, 2021, and 2022.

This year I put more energy into the emotions I was trying to convey (/feel in the moment) than anything else, I hope it reads and is enjoyable! See you all next year!
