You have more in common with the people of Iran than you do with anyone in this administration, any member of the technocracy, anyone who is profiting from this war, or any billionaire. When you see Iranians forming human chains outside key infrastructure sites, you should feel a sense of kinship.

I self-published the first 3 chapters of my webcomic, Fairmeadow, for bringing to conventions. Then I got the flu and couldn’t go to ECCC so they are for sale online for the first time! You can grab a copy on my site for 15% off with the code BOOFLU until March 15 kendrap.com/shop

We have only 61 stories submitted for WHAT ELEGANT STARS so far. I suppose a lot of folks will submit in the last month, but that still seems low. Though the theme is more specific than some previous ones, so folks are less likely to have anything ready to go. www.neonhemlock.com/submissions

Folks, I caught the flu this week and won't be able to make it to ECCC. I've just dropped a bunch of new/con exclusive stuff on my online shop to help make up for the loss, and you can get 15% off til 3/15 if you use the code "BOOFLU" kendrap.com/shop Shares greatly appreciated!

I've been getting back into comics while I wait for more info from my concept job, and I thought I'd make a post about something very important to me, which is COMIC PANEL VARIATION and HOW TO THINK ABOUT IT.

thank you so so much to everyone who donated—i'm deleting the original post below since my needs have been met !
