To all my patrons and supporters, thanks so much for everything! I did a crayon drawing of the Gloomverse cast to celebrate the holiday, and I hope you like it!
Thanks so much for everything you do, and keep being wonderful!
Well as yall know, my brother is getting married this friday, and today, along with every day afterward, we have tons of last minute wedding plans that will literally take up all my time.
Also- next Tuesday IS Halloween, and I wouldn't expect too many people to show up anyway! On top of the fact that I will have flown up to Ohio to visit Alaina and sell at a show up there.
The week after that- if I do a stream, it will probably be from Alaina's house. But that is the current plan! ...
For those not fully aware, I'm the Maid of Honor of my brothers wedding (I've typed it a billion times its even driving ME crazy) along with a convention before the wedding, and a convention right after the wedding.
So I've been working my butt off to get pages done so they're a non issue for this 3ish week time, and I've wiped myself out. I'm still not even done with all the pages I need to do, but I'm trying!
I will be on the discord chat though at 2 pm mountain time!
If ...
I just got back from my vacation- and received news that I can only describe as horrific. I have been shaken to my core, and I have turned off asks on Tumblr, because I cannot handle them right now.
Therefore I will also not be streaming on Tuesday for patrons.
There is a chance I might have to leave and updates could end up being sporadic. The rest of this week should be covered by automatic updates. I do not know what could be going on for my next couple weeks.
I don't kno...
Uh, I TOTALLY forgot July 4th was today until late yesterday? And I have a bunch of friends that invited me to stuff. Not only that, but I fly out tomorrow- which means I have to make sure I 100% have everything I need! Today is more chaotic then I'd like for the day before a big trip, but what can you do?
Reminder, that I will be at Indypop Con in Indianapolis, and Glass City Con in Toledo, Ohio! Also, I should still be able to stream next Tuesday, but it will be at the lovely Alaina's h...
Many of you probably already saw that the order of books have come in!
I was looking back through my information, and realized I haven't sent invoices to some of yall! Don't worry! I'll probably send them tomorrow (Today I'm going to pack up as many orders as I can that have been guaranteed paid so far, ALONG with the livestream, so I'm gonna be kinda tired!)
I promise- everyone who ordered last month, WILL get their books, as long as the invoice is taken care of! Also: Make sure t...
Check out the video on my Instagram!

Also, uh oh I'm legit having a REALLY fun time on instagram, whoops.
I ALSO got the packages in as well! So the last thing I need (and the only reason I don't have it) is to get the PO Box! This does not worry me, because as you can tell, its gonna take a while to package up and ship all the orders yall gave me!!
...
I was originally going to wait until after the store closed but-- I've gotten a LOT of orders. So I figured, I would start early with some of the first people!
What will happen, is I will send the invoice via Paypal. You do not need a Paypal to be able to pay through it! Once it all goes through and everything is said and done, you'll be alright!
I will post updates as we go- but I realize, the sooner I start getting the money for these orders, the sooner I can send the order into ...
The store website is going well- almost everything is set up--
But I didn't realize I needed an IRS tax form to submit before proceeding.
So. To my eternal dismay--
It might take slightly longer then anticipated. This is driving me nuts too guys!
But- I suspect a surge of buyers when it opens, so if anything, I'm also hoping for a weekend where my friends are free to help out- which means not Easter, and not El Paso Comic Con, the next two weekends.
As a second...
I'm sorry this keeps happening you guys.
I was informed this morning that a dear person in my life passed away. About a week ago, I was also informed of another person who is very, very sick, and... probably won't last much longer, either.
I'm having a hard time sorta.... dealing with all that, on top of everything I'm already doing, and I am in no good spot to stream, that's for sure.
Next week should be okay but. Currently? It wouldn't be very fun for anyone. ):
Tha...
Alright everyone! Update!
I'm currently working on the store front- and my original concept that higher tiers get like- half off, or 25% off- things like that.... well the store front I'm using has no options like that, currently. I've been looking up coupons or discounts I can create myself, so I could send different coupons to different tiers, and it doesn't seem like it wants to work?
Essentially, I'm a bit stuck-- higher tiers might not get discounts until the second purchase? ...
Oh my gosh.
I did my two cons in a row, royally lost my voice, and am not returning today until about midnight!
So!
I won't be able to update Aftertale today, and streaming tomorrow is probably not going to happen. I will stream later on in the week if possible too, but I'm going to try and get the Patron store up and running real soon after I return, and nearly sold out of books so I need to buy more for yall!
But I don't even wanna think of all that now. I just need...
You're probably already aware, but I'm up in Ohio/Michigan/Kentucky doing two cons in a row! If we were able to stream, then it would be a random one unplanned. We have a lot of both exhastive resting, and last minute prep for Shuto!
Also, the chance of there being an update next Monday is... nonexistant. I was able to do enough buffer for this week, but with prepping the charms, I didn't have enough time to get more pages ready then what I did. I'm also flying back on Monday too! So will...
Everyone who got their requests into this shedpost nightmare of an image!
2017-02-02 02:19:56 +0000 UTC View PostAlright everyone, wisdom teeth news!
I've spent half the day without my painkillers, and overall, they hurt and they're uncomfortable but its not a nightmare like the first few days. I'm still fairly tired, recovering from surgery will do that, but regardless I'm hoping to update at least two pages on Thursday.
Mostly, I'm just tired from the surgery itself now, and healing tends to pass you out. Overall though, besides being exhausted still from that, I'm doing MUCH better, and sh...
Okay so uh- I don’t have much time but I’m just informing you–
That with the whirlwind of a buncha dental appointments this week and searching and what not, I found a dentist that takes my insurance- I went in a few hours ago to get a looksie–
And all four wisdom teeth have to come out IMMEDIATELY. Not only because they’re definitely hurting the heck out of me, but because Albuquerque Comic Con is in ONLY two weeks- and if I want to be recovered enough to sit at m...
2016-12-30 18:23:02 +0000 UTC View PostI have three Thanksgivings planned (I desperately hope I get to bail on some of them! I only want one thanksgiving with the family <3 ) but I also have friends and family coming into town and its going to be absolute chaos for the rest of this week.
I hope that's okay with yall! Even today I have plans to drive up to the mountain with my sister and visit some in-town friends of ours. Anywho, keep being wonderful everyone, I love you!

My mom just got a PUPPY! And as someone who now works full time from home (Because of you AMAZING BROS) I get to be her primary caretaker.
I'm already behind on like all my work I hope this turns out okay and I can still work without issue.
TRUTH IS THOUGH, we've had her four hours and shes the most mellow thing. She's in her crate now, and she's not even whining. Her breed is a peaceful mellow one, which is why we got her, but WOW, I'm stunned.
We'll see how her behavi...
2016-05-12 03:57:24 +0000 UTC View PostOkay YOOO figure yall should be the first to find out. I gotta make some SERIOUS changes in my schedule, and I'll tell ya why.
I've been havin my three comics (Of course, AskError, Aftertale) along with fun concept art for future projects, while roleplayin Fresh in private in some small roleplays. And-- wow, it's become way too much.
If I were to be completely honest, I've been having SERIOUSLY bad anxiety. Like out the wazoo crazy awful bad anxiety. I've had some panic at...
2016-03-14 15:35:33 +0000 UTC View PostI am 80 dollars away from having to purchase YOLO glasses from Ebay and dress as the fresh on Livestreams.
I'm both excited, and horrified.
2016-03-03 14:52:42 +0000 UTC View PostHow are you doing today? Well? I hope so!!! I'm here to ask a question. What sort of content would you be interested in, if we (somehow through some miracle!) made it to the big 1k?? I have a couple of ideas, but I want your opinions!
Couple of ideas here:
1. Better recording equipment for Livestreams, faster internet so higher quality streams too?
2.Weekly Vlogs, most will be silly and dumb because that's me in my entirety, ah hahaha.
3.Proper update schedules in ...

Since my workload involving comics has become so extensive, and since I DO plan on starting an Art Class maybe sometime next month, I knew I had to get everything sort of 'down pat'. So I bought this and set this up. This has all the updates planned for February, including the Monthly Wallpapers (Don't worry, the January one is STILL COMING, and its our lovely Spider Boss :D) Even Error was given 'official' update days, although his updates are technically random. I've had a hard time jugglin...

SO I edited the tiers to become a bit more manageable for myself. Now, there are of course, Patreon-only livestreams, and Patreons who donate 25 dollars or more per month are the first ones to receive any sketch requests during those streams! Also, those donating 75 dollars or more, will get exclusive streams all their own, and at least one single fully colored digital image during that stream! I feel like this would be MUCH more manageable, and ENJOYABLE, for eve...
2016-01-21 15:35:45 +0000 UTC View PostThank you SO MUCH for reaching the first milestone, and MORE! When I saw it, I literally cried. I am SO GRATEFUL for all the support! And meeting this first milestone means some big things! Particularly, a Patreon Only Livestream, where all my lovely Patreons (10 dollars and up!) get to request drawings and get them answered, in a hopefully much less chaotic livestream then my usual. The important thing though, is to figure out good times for LSs, for as many people as possible. Personally, Satu...
