NOW LIVE On KickStarter – Zine Club Pledge Drive!

Now live on KickStarter, it’s the Zine Club Pledge Drive!

I love making zines! 

For the first half of my webcomics-making career, I offered zines as rewards for patrons on Patreon…back when I was on the platform. After I left Patreon, I moved to Ko-Fi and offered the Zine Club as a membership tier. 

And for this latest KickStarter campaign, I’m opening up for new pledges to my Zine Club!

Right now, our membership is small – less than 13 people. We are a pretty cozy community of creative folks. I love them! AND I would love to grow the club to more members. To get more zines out into the world AND to make more webcomics happen!

Growing the Zine Club would also mean less of a need to hustle so much for income. Less hustling means more time for making rewards, too.

With your help, I would LOVE to grow the Zine club to make these goals happen. KEEP IN MIND, These are set intentionally low so we can hit goals and spread the word faster:

(This is already unlocked!) If we raise our Base Goal of $72, all backers and Zine Club members will get the Deluxe version of my tabletop roleplaying game, Toe Beans & Broomsticks! This game was originally designed for Free RPG Day last year. In it, you play as magic-casting cats, crows, dogs, and owls on a Saturday Morning adventure. The Deluxe edition of the game will have updated character tokens, NPCs, and a homebrewed game setting, The Lost Scroll of Madam Jellybean!

(ALSO UNLOCKED!) If we raise $143, all backers and Zine Club members will get the remastered PDF of Thoughtful Dinosaur!

If we raise $220, all backers and Zine Club members will get the PDF of New Punk Signal (The Signal So Far), the spin-off/sequel to Validation featuring everyone’s favorite himbos, Mike & Steve.

At $385, all backers and Zine Club members will get The Lore of Jamie Roberts, the zine containing SO MUCH RESEARCH that went into The Legend of Jamie Roberts. The zine will also contain concept art and a recipe for the pepper soup that appears in Chapter 3 of The Legend.

We also have stretch goals if we go BEYOND $385! But we’ll unlock those when we get there.

Can you pledge and become a member – even for just a month?

Then back this campaign! There are base rewards on the main page, and whichever one you click, you have your choice of add-ons to pick with your bundle!

Broke? Share this campaign far and wide! Sharing is caring and it helps more than you know. The link is tinyurl.com/kzineclub

That’s all for now. Thank you so much for your support!

You. Are. Awesome.

Drawing Beefcakes – A Live Stream

Today at 7 pm EST, I’m drawing beefcakes! Including Halsin and Karlach from Baldur’s Gate 3, Ganondorf from Legend of Zelda, Dragonball Z villains, and many more.

The good news is – many of these beefcakes will be available as phone wallpaper downloads! Head over to my Ko-Fi shop to get them. Many of these are free, but tips are appreciated!

If you want more freebies, like comics and other exclusive downloads, you can sign up for my email newsletter. I also have two webcomics you can read for free online – The Legend of Jamie Roberts, and (a co-creation with CB as writer) Validation.

Also, I’m running a workshop/presentation on February 1, all about how to letter comics in Clip Studio Paint! The workshop is free to attend and will be streamed on YouTube. Be sure to stay tuned for future workshops, such as how to draw muscles (like the ones these beefcakes have, am I right?).

And finally, don’t forget that this is the LAST CALL to back CATS: A Sketchbook on Crowdfundr! It’s my latest art book collecting sketches I drew for Inktober of 2023. Back it before it’s gone!

That’s all for now. Thank you for watching!
