Yo how do I just hand you like $10 via the internet if I am not of a mind to subscribe to things. I've been reading shit you've drawn for like Forever Years, but I have a bad habit of setting up reoccurring payments and forgetting them when my finances bec

Now that you mention it, even though I don’t update it anymore, my Gumroad is probably the best place for one-time contributions as such. I can’t really ask for donations for nothing, but that’s the next closest thing, lol.

Just choose the book(s) you like and pay what you want. I recommend the princess one!

Happy easter.

Thanks everyone for the reblogs! And the well-wishes and everything. I don’t want to sound dramatic, but they may well have helped stave off a nervous breakdown.

So I’ve basically called in pretty much every nest egg I’ve got to help pay off my predicament. This includes an early cash-out of my Roth IRA, because what the hell, it’s not like comic artists ever actually retire, right?

Altogether I’ll still owe about $5k, which, while not as paralyzingly awful as before, will still take some work, and I know it’s all on me here. Looking through my Tumblr archives for that Kids in the Hall video made it pretty clear to me how low my output has been these past several months. Bad luck with mental health has quite a bit to do with why it all started, but I’m still surprised at how much I let things get away. Regardless of how my brain is doing I just need to get back to actually working on comics again.

The Girly collection is sold out, by the way. So that happened! Thanks folks! Sorry to those who missed out! But I do have plenty of individual books which you can be sure I will be regularly trying to convince y’all to buy. Would more Girly spinoff comics provide encouragement? I do have vague plans for Down Together, including, uhhh… editing the last couple strips into finished comics. Admittedly it outlook is pretty vague on this but I wanna do more with W+O.

The Patreon has been adjusted a bit. I really do enjoy working on You Suck, and I want to go back to doing it weekly right now, so I reduced the guarantee to $50 per page, thereby making me promise 4 updates a month. It’s only $25 away from a promise of 5! How ‘bout it?

Mentally, things still kinda suck for me, I won’t lie. But despite these problems, I was able to draw comics before. And it’s likely that having this financial crisis WILL help out with my output in the long run. I’d really rather it didn’t have to come to that, but this is my brain, what can I do?

I’ll be back with more things to sell tomorrow!

There are less than ten (!!) copies of the Girly collection available in my store right now! They are now on clearance at $80, marked down from $100. This is literally your last chance to get them.

In addition, volumes 2, 3, and 4 of the collection are available separately now, while supplies last!

Help me get $5000

So I can pay the stupid government.

So! before I start taking commissions, I’ll be doing the 10 I owe to the You Suck book Kickstarter backers.

After all this time… I kinda need to show people what my finished art looks like again :|

The first one is for Woc, who simply asked for Izzy doing what succubi do best.

*My Patreon is right here, and it’s the easiest way to support me right now.

*This is my email If you’d like to commission something from me. I’ve been really into Steven Universe lately and I’d love to draw comics about that!

*Despite my clarifications about Slipshine, subscribing to it still always helps me in various ways, if you were ever on the fence about that. I may draw more comics for it too, who knows!

*I know a lot of CEOs would be “fuck it” and take all the money they need from Slipshine anyway, but I just can’t ethically do that, which is probably why I’m not a very good capitalist.

*I also know I could probably take out a loan and use credit cards and just start living way beyond my means like a good american but I’d rather not?

*I’ll be selling off my old computer, a lot of my mangas, and all my Rock Band peripherals soon too. So watch for that.

*I feel like 2014 was a cavalcade of me letting everyone down, so I guess it’s appropriate that I ended up here. Sorry, guys.
