Hey hi folks! The last two weeks have not been super productive aside from one thing:
MY NEXT BOOK IS WRITTEN
...now it's off to editing and art! Phew! This is a departure from my usual style and a shorter story too, and despite all this it still took me a long time to write. Granted, I was recovering from major surgery a lot of the time, so that didn't help much. But it's written! And wil...
2018-07-15 21:30:52 +0000 UTC View PostHey hi folks!
Gosh it feels good to be productive again, albeit at a reduced pace. I sent out the Kickstarter surveys! And made a cute Emilynn sticker for my shop! And drew stuff and started working on upcoming stories again!!!
I'm pretty stoked. And still tired. But a little less so every day!
I'm especially eager to start streaming regularly again, and gosh do I have plans for that...

I've recovered enough to draw a bit! I was inspired to draw these two demon girls for some reason and I had to get the image out of my head. Stay in shape, folks!
(Patrons with high-res and work file access will find this in the usual folders; I'll send updated links for those very soon!)

Hey hi folks! A while back I talked about putting together an anthology written & illustrated by queer folks and, while that's still in the works, I've decided to start smaller to work my way up to it! Witch Hunters Make The Best Familiars: A Very Queer Anthology is meant to be a crowdfunded collection of short stories written and illustrated by LGBTQIA+ folks about the following prompt:
Hey hi folks oh gosh how is it already two weeks later??
Recovery keeps going! Progress is slow but I'm getting more energy every day. I'm streaming again! And slowly preparing other things! Which I can't wait to share with you all once I have the energy. ^^; Soon!
I drew a thing! And I'm writing again, for multiple cool things! And I'll soon be giving my shop some more love! AND AND...
2018-06-17 21:18:33 +0000 UTC View PostHey hi folks!
It'll be a quick update this time, but suffice it to say: recovery is going well! I finally have a couple more hours in the day and I'm starting to be able to work on stuff again.
First things first, kickstarter stuff! I'll be preparing Substitute Familiar for print and organizing the whole fulfillment part of it. I'll also be working on the stretch goal stories and (hopefull...
2018-06-07 02:11:21 +0000 UTC View PostHey hi~
I am extremely tired; good gosh healing from major surgery takes a LOT out of you. I have very little time every day after all my mandated recovery exercises and the odd outdoor activity I can take to help my health. It's way more than I anticipated, and I anticipated a bunch!
Thankfully, I'm getting a bit better every day, and the whole recovery process is set to take less time ou...
2018-05-25 01:50:34 +0000 UTC View PostHey hi folks! I made it! :D
After the Substitute Familiar print edition kickstarter successfully funded and went on to reach all of its stretch goals (oh my gosh) I went on to undergo major surgery (OH MY GOSH). It's been a heck of a ride!
I'm currently in the medical center's recovery house and should be headed home soon. I'm gonna be honest, I have a LOT of recovery ahead of me; it's pra...
2018-05-06 23:28:18 +0000 UTC View PostHey hi folks!
So hey, a heads up: I'll be undergoing major surgery in the coming weeks and recovery will take a month or two. I've been preparing content to release during that time, though, so this patreon shouldn't be impacted too much! I've also got another book on the way (though I'm told I shouldn't expect to be any sort of productive for the first few weeks); I'll do my best to let you kno...

Hey hi folks! The kickstarter campaign for SubFami is live! I'll be announcing it publicly soon, so here's your chance to get first dibs! Thank you so much for helping me make it this far! :D
2018-04-13 21:21:30 +0000 UTC View PostHey hi folks! I'm almost ready to launch the Substitute Familiar print run kickstarter campaign; look for it tomorrow afternoon! I'll be letting folks know about it on the discord and also posting one more update here when it launches so you all can have an early start at nabbing limited tiers (if that's your thing).
I'm really nervous about it because the size of the book necessitates a more ex...
2018-04-13 03:35:14 +0000 UTC View PostHey hi folks! Substitute Familiar is out!! And people seem to like it?? Oh my gosh I'm so relieved.
I've been doing my best to do the promotion thing and also prepare the print run kickstarter. The higher page count means it'll have to be perfect-bound (which means a higher pricetag and a different print company), but the result should be the fanciest book I've made yet! I'm excited to get that ...

Hey hi folks!
I should be on schedule to release my latest light novel, Substitute Familiar, to the public tomorrow. This time I'll also be releasing a free demo! Consisting of the first two chapters, it should hopefully give a peek at the story and some of the characters.
The demo will be released tomorrow as well, but you can check it out first if you want to! Here's a link just for you:...

2018-04-01 18:03:37 +0000 UTC View PostHey hi folks!
Short update this time, because I've finished the art sketches for Substitute Familiar! All that's left is to clean the pics up (my favorite part), lay the book out, and then publish it! I want this book to be out before the end of the month; I'll let you know once we get closer to that date if I think I'm gonna make it!
On the video front, I've been streaming a bunch more, a...

Hey hi folks! Here's the early access archive of my let's play of Blossom Tales with my girlfriend Amber! We were looking for a game to stream together while she visited over the holidays and this little Zelda-like with unreliable narration seemed right up our alley.

Hey hi folks! Here's the early access archive of my let's play of Sonic Mania! I never played a 3D Sonic game, so this game is a love letter to everything I like (and sometimes get very frustrated by) about this series.

Hey hi folks! The new Discord server is up! I expected to send you all a message to let you know how you could set it up, but... it seems Patreon automatically added everybody who's already set up Discord integration. I'm so sorry about that! x__x
Those who are already in the server and don't want to stick around, please feel free to do so! I honestly meant for this to be a fun opt-in thing, not...
2018-02-25 01:44:02 +0000 UTC View PostHey hi folks! The books are printed, my little fulfillment nook is ready—Cat Wishes are going out to kickstarter backers! The book will also be up on my store shortly. Whew. I said it before, but running a kickstarter (even a small one) takes a lot of energy!
I've been hard at work on Substitute Familiar, and should be handling the art for that very soon. And after that, Plant Lamp! I'm excite...

After multiple revisions and adjustments for readability, as well as some typo corrections, it's out of my hands and in the process of being made into lots of physical things, that I will then mail out to folks!
I've also finished writing Substitute Familiar, my third book; it's half again as long as my other books, which means I'll ...

Take care, and ...
2018-02-04 00:35:11 +0000 UTC View PostGood gosh, running a Kickstarter—even a small one—takes a lot out of you.
It lasted only two weeks, but the Kickstarter for the print edition of Cat Wishes ended at 879% funded and that's amazing, holy crap! Being a light novel author is now a thing I can do, and that's... more than I thought I could hope for, honestly! Your support here on Patreon helps me put a roof over my head a...

Hey hi folks! Here's the early access archive of my let's play of Prey! I really like this sort of first-person narrative shooter (though I can't play too many of them after one another), and this one has SPACE LESBIANS so I pretty much had to play through the whole thing.
The videos will be released publicly over the next few weeks, but you can see the whole thing right now if you want to! Here...

Cat Wishes came out! And I launched the print version kickstarter, and... it's been successful? The past days have been so incredibly motivating that I've started writing the next book right away. With the Patreon, my streaming, and frequent enough book releases... I might just make this work. I'm starting 2018 with a lot of optimism.

So uh I guess this story has firmly lodged itself into my mind, to the point where I just had to get this little scene depicted in some form. So have a mini-comic! :D (High-res and work files in their respective folders as always.)
