HIATUS

This blog is taking a short hiatus, starting March 1, 2026 and going until April 20, 2026. It’s the busy season.

Between now and then, you can find me at PIE – Pittsburgh Indie Expo on March 15th!

PIE Pittsburgh Indie Expo is on Sunday, March 15, 2026

I’ll be back April 20 with more news.

Thank you for your understanding!

You. Are. Awesome.

LAST DAY to Support The Legend of Jamie Roberts, Volume 3 on KickStarter!

A young genderqueer person with blonde hair and glasses sits on the edge of a mesa. Two young men stand behind them, one with dark brown hair and the other with light blonde hair. All three wear a light green cape and are gazing out over the horizon. In the distance is a long, winding path leading to a mesa and a castle town sitting on top of it.

Today is the LAST DAY you can back The Legend of Jamie Roberts, volume 3 on KickStarter! This swashbuckling genderqueer adventure is about to sail over the digital horizon, so this is your last chance.

A lot has happened since we launched this campaign a month ago.

  • We’ve raised over $1400 for volume 3!
  • We’ve unlocked the first stretch goal, and are very close to unlocking the next one.
  • Volume 1 is under threat of being banned! (More on that in this post.)
Three comic panels sit wide, showing off desert landscapes as the characters traverse. Panel 1 shows early morning, panel 2 shows afternoon, and panel 3 shows evening. In panel 2, two young men sing, “I’ve been a while rover for many the year, and I’ve spent all me money on whiskey and beer…” Two other voice speak over the panel. “Basho?” “Hm?” Panel 3 shows the characters at camp, a young genderqueer person with glasses holding a sword and gazing up at the stars. Voiceover narration asks, “There are other spirits besides Mocktaw, right? Because…You remember Pim?”

We’re closing in on the finish line now.

If you have not backed this campaign yet, this is your last chance to do so. You have until 11:59 pm EDT tonight.

While there is a 24-hour grace period for pledges, all the prices go up in the grace window. So today’s the last day to claim rewards at a discounted price.

“But wait,” you might be thinking, “this is for volume 3, right? I haven’t read the comic yet!”

Well good news – volumes 1 and 2 are also available as rewards (in both digital and physical copies)! That’s not to mention the other rewards available, like commissions and even original art.

So, once again, if you haven’t backed this campaign yet, this is your last call to do so.

If you backed this campaign already – thank you so much for your support! (And feel free to forward this email to folks you know who like comics about pirates and dragons and magic treasure! Word of mouth has been my only method of spreading the word about this campaign, so every share helps more than you know).

Thank you for your patience during this month while this campaign ran. We’re just about done.

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

You. Are. Awesome.

Find Me at DC Zine Fest and RICE

Yo! Y’all can find me at two DC-Area shows this weekend: DC Zine Fest, and the Richmond Indie Comics Expo (aka RICE).

DC Zine Fest is Saturday, Nov 1 from 11 am to 4 pm at the Martin Luther King, Jr Memorial Library.

dc zine fest poster. November 1 11 am -4 pm. MLK JR Memorial Library. Free and accessible!

Then, on Sunday, Nov 2, I’m at RICE from 1:30 pm to 7 pm! The event is at the VCU Commons in the Richmond Salons and Commons Theater. (907 Floyd Ave).

RICE, Richmond Indie Comics Expo. VCU Commons at Richmond Salons. Sunday, Nov 2nd, 2025, 1:30 - 7 pm. Local artists, unique panels, and more!

AS A HEADS UP – because of campus policies, RICE is a cashless event. So get your Venmo, PayPal, cards, and Cash Apps ready.

Both events are wheelchair accessible and mask-mandatory. So be prepared.

I will be at DC Zine Fest milling about with the crowd unless they take me off the waitlist. I won’t know until the day of the event, probably. But keep an eye out for The Himbo’s Guide to Cooking Chicken and other zines I’ll have on my person. I’m bringing extras with me to trade with folks.

At RICE, I will be behind the table and showing off my wares. This will be my first cash-free event, so we’ll see how it goes!

If you’re in the area, I hope to see you there!

Can’t make it? Then there are lots of other places to find me online – like The Legend of Jamie Roberts, volume 3 on KickStarter, or even YouTube!

Also, the KickStarter campaign is still running, and we hit out 20-backer stretch goal! Can we make it to 30 backers? Want to help us get there? (Even $1 racks up!)

Broke? Share this post far and wide across the virtual seas!

That’s all for now. Thanks for reading!

You. Are. Awesome.
