Solanaceae - Prologue Chapter 2 - Page 22

Phew! Stuff is getting spooky out here in the real world, huh?

I hope my pages can be a small little bit of escape for some of you during these troubling times. I firmly believe we will see the light at the end of this situation, so try to be kind to yourself and others, if you can.

Thanks so much for your support through this time, I've said it once and I'll say it again, I couldn't do this job without all of you! I've already seen a dip in Patrons, which is totally understandabl...

Cavemate, the new Patron-only comic!

Hey everyone!

I'm very pleased and excited to announce the new Patron-only comic coming to the Secret Club each week. (Aka, for $5 tier Patrons!)

It's called Cavemate, and it's about a human who explores caves looking for gems, who meets a spider he becomes friends with. They explore together, find cool treasure, and eventually develop feelings for each other and get frisky, of course.

The entire comic is in full color, about 40 pages, and will update with one page p...

And with that! Pumpkin and Kabocha, Chapter 2 is finished! YAY!

This was a really, really indulgent comic. But I think that's just how these characters and scenario are in general, haha. It's a good thing!

Because of life circumstances, I will only have the cover for Cavemate available next week, but I should be able to get a page out each week, if all goes well. If all doesn't go well and my personal life continues to be hell, I'll have to pick it up more seriously once things cl...

Phew... this has been, a wild last few days. I'm still shaken up from the accident, and still dealing with a bunch of stuff each day. It's going to be a really busy and stressful month, but hopefully once all of this stuff has passed, things can go back to feeling normal...

In the meantime, I'm gonna continue to try and do my best to keep updates consistent, and to continue other plans as normal. All we can really do as humans is try to keep moving on best we can, y'know?

Slight Delay in Updates because of Car Accident

Hey everyone, just making a quick post here to say I will need to take a little extra time to put updates up this week.

The reason being, I was in a car accident where I was T-boned and my car has been totaled. Everyone is okay, but there's a lot of aftermath and stuff to take care of-- not to mention some very impending financial stuff, so yeah.

Just having a very hard time sleeping, or eating without getting sick, and generally just feeling very stressed and scared.

Pumpkin and Kabocha Ch.2 only has one page left! :O

I've been so busy with other stuff I haven't done a ton of work for my next Patron-only comic, but I will be forced to make it a priority soon, so when Solanaceae book work thins out a bit, it'll really help me make time for it.

What's the comic you may ask? Well, it's Cavemate, of course! My spider boy/human story! WHICH I AM SO EXCITED FOR!

I've also updated:

Like, I mean, Sal ain't wrong.

This is the last update here for this month! I'll be trying to finish off Chapter 2.5 today and posting it to on the Secret Club. If I can do that, I will be so so close to finishing everything I need to get pre-orders up for the Chapter 2 book, it's VERY exciting! 8)]

I've been having trouble thinking of any jokes I like for the 4komas, so I'll have to really buckle down and try to think funny at some point, haha.

Thanks SO MUCH for all of you...

This is a tough page, but I'm really glad I wrote this part. I didn't intend for the prologue to have so many uh /real moments/ like this, mostly it was just gonna be horny, but I'm glad I'm expanding. (In general, the plan for all the prologue chapters is shaping up nicely, hehe)

Cameo Spots for Winter Cress village in the Solanaceae Visual Novel! (FILLED)

Hey all! It's that special time again, the time where I have some spots for cameos in the epilogue game for Solanaceae. I've got 4 spots this time!

If you have a character you wouldn't mind seeing in the game, now is the time!

The character will appear somewhere in Winter Cress village, a village way up in the mountains where Battam, Sal, and Satine are looking for a witch to help them build their coven.

BUT! There are some rules to these cameo spots:

Little mistake I made this morning!

As some of you may have seen, I accidentally sent out the Secret Club information to EVERYONE this morning, instead of just my $5+ Patrons, oops!

This has been fixed, as a new password has gone out to everyone who qualifies. 

Sorry for the confusion, and thank you all for your patience! Patreon's back end can make mistakes like this easy, and I was in a rush to get out the door this morning, oof.

Next month, I will be extra careful!

I love Battam in that second panel. He's just so cute and small and mad.

I don't usually decide heights for my characters (or birthdays) because I'm too bad at keeping things accurate and try not to worry over little details -- but Battam is one of my only characters who I know the height for! He's 4' 11"!

Thanks for another wonderful month of support everyone! I hope you had a nice January!
