Mom's Best Friend, page 15 (Patreon)

When asking Jemma to be the artist for this project, I was scared she'd say no. Less than two months were left until the deadline, it would make sense if she wasn't able to commit to such a tight schedule. 

But she said yes. Then she dove into this project with more tenacity than I'd ever seen. Jemma responded to the editor's messages quicker than I had when writing, with more work to show us than any previous artist had provided. She quickly won the editor's approval, and was contracted as the official artist for the pilot.

Jemma managed to keep working on this comic despite a full student workload, an impossible deadline, and getting a new editor assigned to us due to the company's massive layoffs. The fact previous artists had quit MBF over smaller events made me respect her work ethic even more.   As much effort as I put into creating this pilot, Jem without a doubt is the reason it reached completion.  I'll always be grateful to her for that.
