And so are we all, I guess. Must be very relevant for some dark stories, or parts of stories, when one is having nightmares, or feels sad ...

Very nice. :) It reminds me of one of my few wonderful and precious art books "Framed Ink - Drawing and Composition for Visual Storytellers" by Marcos Mateu-Mestre. 🖤

I have read in
https://www.heise.de/news/Donald-E-Knuth-Der-Informatik-Papst-wird-80-3936496.html (German) that Donald Knuth of TeX once said in https://yewtu.be/watch?v=BxQw4CdxLr8 that breakthroughs in mathematics were hold back because nobody handed out blocks with triangles to mathematicians. (See image in heise article)

In other words: Changing the medium can liberate the creativity.

What type of pen is it? I have a black notebook and wanted to use metallic pencils to it, but they were a bit underwhelmingly dim.

@Neotheta That's mainly the Faber-Castell Pitt Artist Pen Brush White 101, B, a good pen with a brush tip; it's not 100% covering the black, but that let a little room for some modeling of light.
At the double page 3 (Alice falling) I started to add also a Uni-Ball Signo broad UM-153 White. I tested it on a shop in a corner of my sketchbook. this one is super white and thin with a ball-pen gel ink tip. I use it for star, thin light, rim light, highlight.

it’s beautiful but QAnons ruined Alice in Wonderland. Whenever I see someone sporting anything Alice in Wonderland I assume they are part of that cult.

@maggiejk Thanks, and I had no idea they reused this monument of culture. Sad. But I'll continue to be inspired by it and draw it, because the text is just too good.

The question seems to be, who modeled as the white rabbit?

@jerry "Both? Both. Both is good." 😉

But also a bit of jefferson airplane "white rabbit" , alice in madness, and arthur Rackham illustrated version.
