December Blog Post! Please Read :)

Happy December!!! I have some updates and reminders for everyone, so please read~

First off-- for my new $5 (and up) patreons who just joined!!! I do this thing every year where I send out physical Christmas cards to anyone who would like one. This doesn't include my $2 pledges (sorry guys) but you will still get to see the digital Christmas card posted here. So it's not like... totally exclusive content or anything.

Anyway-- if you are a 5$ pledge (or higher) and would like to receive Christmas cards, please fill out your information on this ----  google doc 

The deadline for filling out the doc will be Dec 7th -- after that I will have to start printing and packing up the mail :) 

--------

Next up! I did a colossal fuck ton of work yesterday on getting the TLLT physical copies ready. The pages are "done" until I get a proof copy back and can go through it to check and see what needs to be adjusted before the final. I also worked on all the other pages of the book (Title page, copyright page, all the extra artwork that will be in the back, etc). So now all that's left to do is cover design!!!! ^^^ As you can see above, I am also working on that. Once I have cover design done and send off the files to get the proof made, it will just be a waiting game. Looks like the turnaround time for a proof is about 3 weeks? So if I can get everything done THIS week, then I have the proof by the end of the year... THEN come January I will launch the TLLT kickstarter, which will be YOUR opportunity to pre-order your books, and of course help me fund the printing cost. I'm not sure exactly how much I will be trying to raise yet (probably around $3,000 ?) It's going to be pricey on my end (to print), so even though the kickstarter will be a lot of extra work, it's a necessary evil to doing this. (Polls will be coming soon so I can gauge how much you guys feel is fair/are willing to spend for print copies). Also, the Kickstarter will feature some extra goodies as they usually do, and tiers of content to unlock depending on the goals. I hope I'll have everyone's support! <3

I am feeling better after being sick earlier this week, which is really nice, but I'm still behind on my panels for this week (err... technically last week now). So, just wanna remind everyone that I am still taking this week off from posting. This means there wont be a full update on Tuesday-- here or public-- however I do have a mini follow-up update for you guys that reveals what Judas found in the thrift shop. :) So hopefully that will be enough to keep you satiated in the mean time. I'm sure I will have some other extra stuff for you this week too.

For the record... This ended up being the "right" week to take off too btw... Not that I have to justify it to you guys (I know you all understand lol) But, if I wanna get the TLLT cover done, the Christmas cards done, the nsfw 10$ illustration done.... plus some personal stuff like Christmas shopping... yeah. Lets just say it will be a productive "week off" lol. Now that I'm feeling okay, I'm more or less looking forward to it  :) 

--------

What else... what else.... Oh! I decorated a little Christmas tree for myself this year (see pictures above featuring my cat, Faye). This is not significant LOL, but I figured I should say it for anyone who might need to hear it-- Just cus you're a single pringle, or live alone, or don't have kids, doesn't mean you shouldn't enjoy the holiday season! :) You deserve a Christmas tree with dollar tree ornaments too. Go go go. Get yourself some cheer. (Also, yes my tree doesn't have a star on top.... working on it lol)

I think that's all I got for you guys as of right now. Does anyone have anything for me? Good news? Anything worth sharing? I hope you are all enjoying yourselves, hanging in there, taking your meds, drinking water, remembering to call your loved ones, etc etc.


I'll leave you with one of my favorite Christmas songs.  - Another Year Has Gone By

Single Pringles unite! I really need to buy a Christmas tree now that I have an apartment with room for one but also,,,going outside,,,spending money 😭 lol I have quite a lot of ornaments for someone without a tree so I just have to get that missing piece 😂 Glad you're feeling better!

I'm so glad you're feeling better! Enjoy your break! You're tree looks nice! Faye is precious! 💕

OHHH... But you know what calling the volumes "The first leg" or "The Second Leg" and so on is a fantastic idea... I think you may have just inspired me to change it!!! Clever!!!

Glancing quickly at the second picture, I misread it as "Leg One", which I thought made sense with a road trip. No, "Chapter One". Probably for the best.

Please do take care of yourself, by all means. FYI: in my login, the last photo posted is a broken link (the photo after the one with the ever so gorgeous kitty cat). I don't know whether it's a Patreon level permission thing or not, but it shows as a broken image link.

Awww <3 one of the best Christmases I had was when I was living with a roommate and we got a tree and decorated our whole apartment together! We also had a small Christmas party with friends and it was really nice. :) Always good to have someone to motivate you to do the things you arent "good" at doing lol. I had to motivate myself to be festive this year, which takes way more effort. Haha :) for the record, I wish I could come to your holiday party-- It sounds fun! X) ---- The book is going to end up being 108 pages (including the extra pages in the back). Now, depending on what I decide to do for the kickstarter, I *might* end up doing an exclusive scene as well? That would be one of the tier goals for Kickstarter, which will make a little longer. :) But for now, yeah, 108.

Aaaaaaah, kitty! I should share pics of my babies some time… They’re being cute and good right now. 😁 Glad you’re feeling better! And able to get some productive things done despite feeling unwell earlier. 💜 The cover is looking great! I am excited to see the end result. 🥰 I am excited for the books. Definitely adding to my shelf of comics, lol. This may have been mentioned, but how many pages will it be? (If you know off the top of your head, you’re welcome to tell me to go look at past updates. 😂) I know about what price point range I’m anticipating for a full-color comic, as I’ve backed a few comic kickstarters in the past. (I spend too much money on Kickstarter… but the return is so *good*. Comics, tarot decks, and dice are my weakness, lol…) My roommate and I have finished our holiday shopping! We even decorated the house a bit. 🤣 That’s far more than I did the last few years before she moved in, but I have this awesome mix of procrastination, laziness, back and joint pain, and executive dysfunction, so decorating tends to not be high on my list. Always happy when decorations are up! But putting them up and taking them down is a chore. 😭 I have no problem assisting though. 😆 It’ll be nice to have the decorations up for the Yule party this year though. (I host all my friends annually for a potluck, gift exchange, and socializing. It’s a lot of work, but it’s fun. 🙂) I even have a bunch of our of town friends coming this year! I am ecstatic. Also, another good song choice! 💜 I’m not big on Christmas music generally, but I’m not familiar with this song. I dig it~ Hope you keep feeling better, and that you get everything done you’re hoping to! 😁💜 Pet your kitty for me!

Thank you ♡ :) I appreciate the support and understanding. Faye has yet to knock the tree over.... although she has batted a few ornaments off of it

Mccull

Your health matters more than pages. Will always say that. The extras tho are always cute, funny or hot. I'd never complain about them. Glad you're feeling better though. The tree looks great. Faye looks like she can't wait to ruin it 🤣 Christmas is always a busy time of year anyway. Gift shopping stressful lol. But hope you get it all sorted out soon
