[fixed] Big Anniversary Surprise! Plus scary photo of dead opossum, etc
Added 2024-05-02 15:00:09 +0000 UTCDear Author's Tier-chacho, I have a big surprise to unveil this weekend, and I am telling you about it first.
One year ago, on May 5, 2023, the Achewood Patreon debuted, and with your generous support I was able to inhabit, for the first time, the happy, healthy, and sustainable production mode that had eluded me the previous quarter-century. I would put the best moments of the last 62 strips and pieces up against the best of any of the previous thousands.
While I was creating the last twelve months' worth of material, I also had a stealth project going on, which I will debut this Sunday. I mention it here early because I think it's the sort of thing a person who would join the Author's Tier might particularly appreciate, and I want you to be excited. I surprise myself with the excitement I feel at the prospect of sharing it.
It was the strong membership numbers in this tier that helped convince me there was an appetite for the sort of thing to which I allude, and so it was on the tide of your next-level support that I rose with the sun so many mornings and bared the keyboard to the shadow-self, as it were.
Thank you again for being among the most ardent supporters of my work. Your contribution truly does translate into not just the time for me to do it, but to my belief in its ability to bring happiness and meaning to this life we share.

I too have owned a 70 year old house. I think that is one of the best ways you could possibly describe it.

2024-05-07 22:10:59 +0000 UTCOnstad, what is going on with those leaves or is it mulch? Is the whole lawn a small green dot in the yard. Plus, are you going to work on that window, it looks like it just canters right and left as you open it.

2024-05-07 22:09:57 +0000 UTCDM'd it on Discord. Couldn't find the creator messages tab on Patreon. EDIT: Nevermind, found it.

2024-05-03 17:25:11 +0000 UTCif anybody has the email with the original paragraphs in it, could you please DM it to me here?
Chris Onstad
2024-05-02 23:12:07 +0000 UTCQUESTION: I'm seeing an incomplete version of this post, which lacks all the paragraphs, and also the opening image of the cast with the banner. Is anyone seeing those things?
Chris Onstad
2024-05-02 22:28:15 +0000 UTCIt's a very exciting time! Congratulations! Here is what I want for your one year anniversary: the story of the time Beef and Ray went to Home Depot. It's possible that I dreamed this.

2024-05-02 15:30:04 +0000 UTCIt can be yours, but it comes with an old house attached. 18k BTU, good enough for a wok!

2024-05-02 15:29:42 +0000 UTCHe's actually a big character in the strip, because is Vlad's externally-stored insecurities.
Chris Onstad
2024-05-02 15:29:16 +0000 UTCYou didn't have to put Andy in the drawing. But you put Andy in the drawing. (I guess he's a pretty easy character to draw.)

2024-05-02 15:08:42 +0000 UTCI can't believe we're getting a fully live-action Vlad talk show. This is huge!
