I've been on Tapastic for 3 and a half months and I've never formally introduced myself! Let's fix that.
Hello! I'm EBee. That name is based on my initials - E.B! When I was a child my mom suggested I give myself an artist name, and so we came up with EBee because the "Bee" could represent my love of all animals! Bee's have become more of a signature for me recently, and thanks to my username I've also developed a love for the stabby little critters.
Buuuuut like it says on my comic's cover page - my real name is Emily Buck. It's been a pleasure meeting you all! I turned 20 this November. I went to art college for a year to study under the computer animation major but I wasn't able to continue because it was to expensive - now I'm floundering about in a community college looking forward to drowning in student loans, Woo! I still dream about making art my future. Besides that, I hope to write novels one day. I have many story ideas and I hope life grants me the opportunities to share them.
I like video games, movies, cartoons, anime, and sometimes I read though I don't read as often as I'd like. I love talking to people online so never fear to send me a message or connect with me on other sites!
A little about my comic!



The Lessfortunate Beings is a story I started conceptualizing in 2013, and started posting to DeviantArt September 2013. I decided I wanted a project to test myself with, as I have a tendency to start something and never finish it, so I chose to create a story for my character Ebee. I made Ebee in early/mid 2009. I started the idea by thinking of a way I could explain why Ebee (who was just a normal cat at the time) had such unnatural markings. Then I found ways to plug some of my other characters into the plot and now it's what it is today!
Muzzless was a random creature I drew a few years ago after seeing a character model drawing of the character Steele from the movie Balto without a mussel. (This one infact). Quince was a character I adopted from a friend. They both needed a purpose so I found them homes in my story!
I hope to stick around here for as long as I can and maybe even host more comics here in the future! TLB has already evolved so much since I started it, and I hope I can see the story to it's end. The community here is definitely motivating!
This ended up way longer than I anticipated, sorry about that!
