[Dragonmun Studios] 3 Days Left!

Home  •   Patreon  •   Discord  •   Event Schedule  •   Sivoa: Zenith Kickstarter

Today marks three days from the end of the Sivoa: Zenith Kickstarter! This has been one intense month for me as marketing is not my strongest skill and the fact that I managed to raise this much toward a singular thing is kinda of a cool feeling. I'm only $373 from this thing funding!

They say that Kickstarters typically fund within the last 48 hours and I've seriously got my fingers crossed in hopes that this is true! 🤞...

Excluding Sensory Overload, last week was a very quiet on the projects front. The Sivoa: Zenith Kickstarter has plateaued solidly at the 66% mark - which makes me a little sad because I was hoping to draw another little image of Thumbprint (the dragon!) to celebrate being another third funded this week. 

Last week I celebrated the halfway point in the campaign's timeline by revealing the cover and sharing work-in-progres...

[Dragonmun Studios] Sivoa: Zenith Cover reveal!

Today is the official half-way mark in the Sivoa: Zenith Kickstarter timeline and to celebrate, I've released what the cover looks like! 

Y'all, this thing is so pretty! I'm so proud of it! 

To see the cover art, the layout, and a bit about how it was put together, check out the post on Kickstarter, by clicking here (or if you're on Patreon, by clicking here).

Thank you so much for helping me to get to this point with this...

[Dragonmun Studios] The Kickstarter Launches Tomorrow! 📖🥳

Ahhhhhhhhh!!!!

It's almost a little surreal to be here with the Sivoa story. Like, there was a point in time where I was devastated from the realization that I might not get to tell this part. Mind you, that was back when I was doing Sivoa as a comic series and progressing at about 12-24 pages a year. Doing the math, I figured out that it would be decades before I got to the end of the first story arc (Sunrise) had I con...

[Dragonmun Studios] 8 Days till Launch! 🥳

Book Trailer!

Home  •   Patreon  •   Discord  •   Event Schedule  •   Sivoa: Zenith Kickstarter

Kickstarter doesn't "require" videos, but they more than subtly hint that a video element should be used on their campaign pages. I'm always incredibly nervous on camera and I couldn't think of a thing to say worthy enough to make a video for. This started to stress me out immensely and my husband just chimed in with "Why not just use the book trailer for it?"

I should have thought of that. 🤦

I'm so thrilled ...

[Dragonmun Studios] 15 Days Till Launch! 🥳

First of all, I want to say hello to everyone that joined this list at Anime Festival Orlando this last weekend... Hello! This is the second of my weekly Sivoa: Zenith Kickstarter emails, which will run until August 5th. After that, these will be back on a monthly schedule. 😊

In my last email, I mentioned the value of feedback in the creative process, but I've got to say that it's appreciated after ...

I'm ready for the Kickstarter to launch on July 5th, but the number in the subject line suddenly made it real ( OMG! I'm doing the thing! )

I was never under the impression that running a Kickstarter campaign would be easy, but I must admit that I didn't expect it to be quite this hard. I'm finding myself very thankful for those of you that have chipped in advice as well as the creato...

"Audience Screams"

Home  •   Patreon  •   Discord  •   Event Schedule

Last week I stumbled upon a clip of a Ted Talk regarding fangirls. The whole Ted Talk is pretty awesome, but this particular clip struck on something that I have kind of knowingly dealt with my entire life; not being allowed to get excited about things.

As a small child, I was told that "little girls should be seen and not heard." My parents, my grandmother, my aunt, school teachers, random strangers all said it to me. I don't  thin...

[Dragonmun Studios] This Is the May… of Art!

Happy May and Star Wars stuff Y'all!

First of all, I want to welcome all of the new subscribers to this newsletter. I'm excited to have you here. Earthday Birthday 30 was a wild one and it was so cool to share that experience with you and my booth buddy, Lesi over at Alisha's Backyard Nursery  (she's the one with the cool figures and statues). I never did find out who the artist was that had their entire booth sucked up into the sky by the dust devil...

[Dragonmun Studios] This Show Was On Fire!

Greetings from Zombieland, where I am now a temporary resident (holy smokes, I am so tired! 😴). MegaCon was hot this year! It was so lit that it was 🔥🔥🔥…

Okay, actually it was just smoke once they put the pizza fire out. There was no need to clear the building. It was contained and extinguished almost instantly. I personally thought it smelled delicious.

Shout out to all the people that visited me at my booth! It was such a joy to be able to talk with...
