June Update!
Added 2024-06-01 20:25:00 +0000 UTCHey y'all! Thank you so much for sticking around! It's usually around now that things really start to take off as the weather heats up, and the pressure is on with the arrival of hurricane season. Every year is a crap shoot as we enter peak season in August. It's either the annual Hollering Elk summer blockbuster or a miserable, unexpected hiatus, haha.
Current news, the Elk Hunt book is basically put together, and I'm just deciding what I'll be putting down for however many and how to distribute them without wrecking my current workflow. Patrons should be easy as I shouldn't need to inquire for addresses/payments. Work in progress I will continue to update y'all on. Having them sent directly to me will mean I can sign them as well! There is also a massive backlog of merch that needs to go out and hoping USPS here in New Orleans doesn't give me hell for the summer batch. It's in the hundreds, 😬. The Elk Hunt books are also to come with stickers.
On comics:
There is one last one off, (The Full Story) before I will commit to releasing "The Velluto Duo" chapters. I pivoted a little last month to keep things afloat on Patreon and other platforms I rely on for moderate monetization and to get the funds together to print the EH books. A lot on my plate there.
Final notes:
In response to a handful of messages I've seen, I am not taking commissions or taking on comic contracts currently. There are still a few commissions left from previous eras that need to be wrapped up before I consider opening again, which may be winter. With EH, TVD, and my Patreon obligations, I don't have a ton of time to commit to outside projects. Thanks for your understanding!
Hope y'all enjoy the nonsense to come, and I appreciate y'alls patience when it comes to all of the outside doodads. I am perpetually overwhelmed but I do my best, haha.
Love,
Elk

I definitely need to make sure those are included. So many wonderful panels suitable for that.

2024-06-02 16:21:13 +0000 UTCI can look into this! Right now I'm using a company that has a wonderful reputation for producing high quality comic books, and it may be that they can sell it on their end as well if I work out a deal with them. This would help my international fans get their hands on it too.

2024-06-02 16:20:31 +0000 UTCWould something like Kindle Direct Publishing help? Maybe for large volumes of unsigned printed copies? When I tried it a year or so ago it was kinda straight forward to set up.
