Fox & Willow is 70% Funded!

Posted in blog | Tagged , , | Leave a comment
So the Fox & Willow Kickstarter is 70% funded! Huzzah! Thank you all so much! 😀 We have about 13 days left, so I’m popping in for another plug to pledge or spread the word  – anything you can do to help would be brilliant. For those of you who have been keeping up to date with our comic on Tapas or Webtoons or even the main SSD site – we’ve obviously been on hiatus for several months to work on this Kickstarter, but we will be updating pages this week. (Patreon got the updates this morning, whee!) Also, Aimo and I were working on another Kickstarter-funded project  – a comic anthology – The Gothic Tales of Haunted Futures, and we had about 10 pages of full color to work through, between the scripting and the lettering and lovely art and all that jazz, so we were focused on that… Read more

The Fox & Willow Kickstarter is now live (actually it went live on Tuesday, but I’m silly and forgot to post here…so!) Here’s the linky link -> Kickstarter We’ve been live for only a couple of days and we’re already nearly half-way to our goal amount so I’m utterly thrilled about that – thank you all so much!

Updates and Upcoming Kickstarter!

Posted in blog | Tagged , , | Leave a comment
*waves* Hi everyone. Remember me? Yes, I’m still here and kicking around. Life has been…crazy since the last time I blogged. Between the pandemic, having my kids stuck at home, having to send my exchange student back to Japan, trying to write, needing my esophagus dilated, having an ovarian cyst rupture and kill my remaining ovary and sending me straight into menopause…well. It’s been a time. Like everyone else, I imagine Radio silence isn’t ideal, I realize, but I’ve just been caught up in the usual whirlwind, which has been complicated by bouts of depression and trying to just keep up with the news in the world as it changes hour by hour. That being said, things have been moving behind the scenes a bit. If you read my post from November or so, you might remember how Fox & Willow’s publication debut was basically dropped due to some major… Read more

Advocacy in the Time of Bullshit

Posted in blog | Tagged , , , , | 1 Comment
So this week was a bit of a mess on a number of fronts. And maybe it’s just the fact that I’ve been on steroids for a couple of weeks and I’m also menopausing like crazy, but I just…have no more patience. For anything. (Yes, the steroids helped – I can hear again, huzzah. Boo, the menopause continues and hotflashing is shit and yes some of the herbal remedies help, but still. Really, body? Right now?) There have been some good things – the kickstarter I’m contributing a story to funded, so I’ve already turned in a script to the editor for that. Awaiting feedback so I can talk to Aimo about how we want to set the pages up a bit better. I also have the formatting for A Symphony of Starlight done, so with any luck I’ll have paperback versions ready to go by the end of November,… Read more
