New Crowdfunding Campaign Launches Tonight!
I have a Crowdfundr campaign going live at 7pm tonight! You can reach it by following the link here: crowdfundr.com/FamilyBusiness
"Family Business" is about Vennyx, a gnome warrior, and his memories of his sister Estya. The story is told largely as a flashback, with the aged hero in a tavern telling his daughter about the struggles they faced growing up in the Desert Coast, a place where being a gnome means being born with a target on your back.
Throughout the course of this fifteen-page comic, we explore the loss of innocence, the drive for survival, the power of family, and the unshakable bond of love. We learn what it takes to turn a scared child into a hero, unafraid of pursuing justice and righting the wrongs of a dark past.
We're doing things a little differently this time: the base goal is only $500, and we're only running it for three weeks. The goal is to see how this platform handles smaller campaigns, and in return for helping me with that, you get a truly awesome comic!
BUT WAIT, THERE'S MORE! In addition to PDF and physical copies of the comic, we'll also be offering bookmarks and reopening commissions! The economy has forced me to raise my commission prices, but I've decided that I want to thank my Patrons for all the support over the years. I am therefore going to be sending a promo code for $40 off on commissions to all of my $3+ Patrons! This promo will run the length of the Crowdfundr campaign. Just enter it when filling out your pledge information, and we'll apply it to that reward!
Not a $3+ Patron? Well now's the time! As long as you become a $3+ Patron and maintain it through the October pay cycle (Roughly September 29th-October 6th), you will be eligible to use this promo code! So don't wait, take advantage of this fantastic deal! You can become a Patron at the following link: Patreon.com/BWHComics
This project has been happening in the background for months, and I'm extremely excited to finally be bringing it to all of you. I can't wait to see this comic in print and get it into your hands!
Rock on, guys, and never stop drawing.

SPX this Weekend!
IT'S FINALLY TIME!This weekend is the Small Press Expo, which is one of the biggest indie cons on the East Coast and a show I've wanted to table at for YEARS. I was supposed to attend last year, but I unfortunately came down with COVID at the last minute and had to cancel. I'm grateful that the staff of the show has given me a second chance!
Stop by table D7b to check out what we have! We're also right by Kelci Crawford and the Columbus Cartoon Coalition, so we clearly have the best corner in the entire con!
In addition, Freestyle Komics is hosting a scavenger hunt, and our table is participating! Stop by and ask about
CosPain
and
What the Gnomes Know
to check off our entries to the card. Complete them all, and Freestyle Komics may have a prize for you!See you all this weekend in Bethesda, MD!
