Today at 3 pm ET, feel free to lurk while I draw more comics and art. I’m going to be building a nice backlog of comics pages before I take the holidays off. You can watch here or on YouTube.
Be sure to check out the LIVE STREAM BINGO CARDS, which are available for free download.
I have news about printer proofs, zine fests, and shop updates.
While The Legend of Jamie Roberts, volume 1 is still going back and forth, volume 2 has been approved for printing! I’m hopeful that this next iteration of volume 1 will be the final draft. Fingers crossed, yo.
I haven’t had time to assemble stickers or draw minicomics because of election stress. Also, I came back from Akron Comicon, which was a huge flop for me. (How hard did it flop? Well I sold so little that I had to turn to mutual aid to help me pay for the electric bill coming due soon.) Unfortunately, I will not be returning to that show for the foreseeable future.
Speaking of events, this week I will be doing a lot with Queer Zest Zine Fest. So digital reward fulfillment is going to wait until next week.
Speaking of Queer Zest Zine Fest, I’m running a workshop tonight at 5 pm EDT, talking about Tabling at Events for Beginners. More info is on the Workshop page of the official site.
In other news, I updated my Ko-fi page to include some new pocket zines! Be sure to check that out – they’re all $1, plus $1 for shipping. I also have a Big Cartel shop where you can get sweaters, mugs, and notebooks. For the Big Cartel, 10% of all sales will go to TransOhio, an organization advocating and fighting for the rights of trans, nonbinary, intersex, and gender non-conforming people in Ohio.
This marathon is actually a replay of Saturday’s livestream, which you can watch now. Feel free to turn it on while you do your thing – drawing, chores, whatever you need to do, let this video be your body double.
Spoilers: in the stream there will be cryptids in booty shorts.
Now For Some Updates!
Over on KickStarter, I have updates for backers of Reprinting The Legend of Jamie Roberts. In short – I’m having a back and forth with the printers about the proofs.
Also, this weekend you can find me (along with my buddies Ben Wright-Heuman and Chloe Rose) at Akron Comicon! We’re at table C26 as Fantasyville Productions.
For commissions, there are two new offerings – one for the more budget-minded and one for the big spenders. $5 can now get you a kitty doodle, while $200 gets you a fully rendered, full-figure character of your choice – in Copic markers! More info on commissions can be found on the Commission Board.
And A New Shop??
That’s right – I’m opening a new shop on BigCartel THIS Friday!
This shop is not like the Ko-fi shop. Instead, it’s a collaboration with Printful – they do the printing, shipping, and handling. All I need to do is design the art going on the products!
The livestream replay shows *two* of the four or five products coming to the shop. Here’s a sneak peek at one of my favorites…
More details are coming this Friday on my email newsletter, so be sure to sign up!
As you’re reading this, I will be on the train coming into DC. Because DC Zine Fest is tomorrow!
If you’re in the area, I hope to see you there! It’s at the Martin Luther King Jr Memorial Library from 11 am to 4 pm – also it’s free and accessible to attend.
This Zine Fest will be the in-person debut of New Punk Signal and Fwishi’shi, as well! So if you missed the KickStarter for these books, DC Zine Fest will be a good place to get copies. I will also have copies of my new zines, “Purrmaids,” “The Himbo’s Guide to Cooking Chicken,” and “Witchy Kitties.”
Can’t make it? Missed the KickStarters? That’s ok, there’s a third option for you…
I have not sent out minicomics and mini-prints yet for Ko-fi Club members. If you would like to get these mailed to you, become a member on Ko-fi! Members get minicomice, zines, stickers, and mini-prints mailed to them each month. Even if you can only do one month, that’s ok – cancel at any time, no questions asked.
Ko-fi rewards will be mailed out around Halloween, so you have until then to sign up.
