Hey all!
We'll have our monthly patron hangout this Saturday, December 30th from 12pm PST (Pacific Standard Time US, UTC -8:00) to 2pm PST. As always, it'll be over on the Patron Discord server.
We've got a big influx of people for the KSBD RPG this month, I hope you can stop by and listen in! It'll be our last hangout of 2017. We'll probably chat a whole bunch about...

Hey all,
I'll be running a Blades in the Dark game over at the discord server at 6pm Pacific Standard time (UTC -8:00) today, we have a player roster but feel free to drop by and hang out. This will eventually become a recurring thing with open signups.
Cheers!

We've had a massive influx of people pledging this month for the KSBD RPG. I'm super happy and hope a lot of you stick around! We have the monthly patron hangout coming up on Sunday, December 30th, where we hang out and chat for a couple hours, and I've love to catch people then.
If you have discord, we also have a discord server here that I post on fairly regularly (right now I'm slowly starting a Blades in the Dark campaign over t...

Hey all!
I've done a bit of playtesting for THE PIT, so I've got some content in somewhat playable shape. There's some enemies here, rules for darkness, rules for complications, loot tables, and an explanation of what the demon die does (hint: see above).
Enjoy!

It is with great pride that I'd like to announce the full release of Broken Worlds, the Kill Six Billion Demons RPG!
This is the culmination of more than a year and a half of writing, playtesting, drawing, and tinkering on my part, but I haven't done it alone. Josh Raveling, a patron and a gentleman, has done the beautiful layout work, and Sam Chabot has designed the excellent character sheets. I must also give credit to the P...

Hey all! Just a reminder we're hanging out in discord tomorrow from 12-2pm Pacific Standard Time US (UTC -8:00). I'll drop another link to the server and a reminder about 15 minutes before we start.
See you there!

After a lot of work, I've finally got this thing into somewhat usable shape. I'm very proud to present THE PIT, a brand new dungeon-crawling RPG. I've been working on this between LANCER and the ksbd RPG for some time as a side-side project and finally took the time today to get it put together.
This is eventually going to replace the KSBD RPG on patreon and move up to the RPG-tier, but given recent events I'm posting the first version for all patrons.

Hey all!
I wanted to address the recent Patreon change in fee processing. I think it's a pretty terrible move and regressive, since it hurts people pledging with small amounts. The change is supposed to go through later this month, I have been paying the fee on pledges up until this point with no issue.
I want to put some facts out there:
- Patreon is by far my primary income source (far more than book sales)
- I pay state and federal taxes on Patreon income, around 20%...

Hey all!
You may have noticed it's December and we (criminally) haven't had a hangout yet for November. I sincerely apologize - Thanksgiving and moving got quite in the way. I'm currently in the process of moving across the country and things will be more solid starting January. That said, I'm going to try and do a hangout Saturday, December 9th, from 12-2pm Pacific Standard Time US (UTC -8:00).
As always, we'll be using 2017-12-05 02:56:21 +0000 UTC

Hey all!
Here's an interview with me from about a year or so ago that just popped up on youtube. It's a little old, and is mostly around the time I was releasing book 1, but I think it might be an interesting listen.

Hey all!
Wanted to do a quick check-in here to let you know that the recent lack of updates on the KSBD RPG are because I have been arranging something super cool - the full release of the RPG (with illustration, formatting, and all that jazz).
It's currently being put together and I expect a full, proper release here on Patreon sometime this December, so thanks for your patience! I'll try and throw a preview up here very soon.
After the KSBD RPG releases, I have two projects in mi...

Hey all!
Found this while editing. I put a .psd together a while (a while!) back for this page to give you a good example of my behind-the-scenes page construction. Hopefully spelunking around in this will give you a good idea of how I handle layers, etc.
Happy poking around. There's some bonus stuff in there like thumbnails, etc.

Here's part 1 of my basic comics tutorial! This started as a coloring tutorial, but it's going to go into a little more detail and be a basic guide for the simple mental rules I think about when putting together comic pages.
It's not quite as fancy as other tutorials, but I hope it's extremely useful. Here's part 1, which is a little conceptual, but no less important, I think, to thinking about making comics.

Hey all!
It's that (spooky) time of the year again. Our Patron hangout will be Sunday, October 29th from 2:00pm Pacific Time US (UTC-8:00). As always, we'll be using discord, and I'll post the link to the server about 10 minutes before we start up. We'll probably go for about two hours, so feel free to hop in and out whenever (there's also a text chat if you just want to listen in or don't have a mic).
Hope to see you there,

Here's the art for the November issue of Image+ (the Image comics magazine). You can get one with the previews catalogue for free or for 2 bucks off the Image site, there's an interview inside as well that I did that I thought went pretty well.
