I'm waving my middle finger at the wishy washy rule reversal at Kickstarter by putting out a surprise book of dicks. VILLAINS will be my 4th dick book on the platform, I wonder if it'll get a PWL badge.

So many major shifts Someone revealed that they didn't want what they'd said they wanted. My collaborator of 15 years (on the day I told him about a life changing opportunity) told me he'd never really wanted a career and this had just been for fun.

Falling apart just a little bit.

I love still getting emails from my old apartment building.

Who was this note for?

Riddle me this. After 33 fulfilled campaigns and a reversal of their Mature Content policy, why is my book of Villain dicks still not approved by Kickstarter?

In less than 24 hours I'll have seen my first Star Wars film.

At a time when crowdfunding platforms are under intense scrutiny and trust from creators is low, maybe having AI chatbots sending people in circles isn't the best way to help.

I've taken a new approach recently where if someone sends me a boring message I just mute all notifications from them. I have gained a lot from this. Highly recommended.

Let's see if Kickstarter mean their apology. This project is currently in review, and I'm hoping to launch it ASAP.

What if we all just deleted our files and started over but this time we promise to rename them as we go?

ANNOUNCEMENT: My next memoir is coming in June. A chaotic book about how a two week breaking point spiralled out into a year of falling apart in slow motion. Jigsaw pieces falling through clenched fists. Sign up below to stay in the loop. kickrichard.com

'The Christophers' is a film perfectly designed for me to enjoy and it worked.

One of the main reasons to get married is so that when you buy a flavor of toothpaste you don't like you can push through together faster. Wish Ray and I luck for the next few months

Mushroom train trip.

Normal amount of pens.

Going back through art from a year ago in preparation for the launch of memoir #4 'OOPS! ALL RICHARDS.'

Obsession is a film with absolutely no surprises that tries to make up for it with too many jump scares and a sound mix that feels unprofessional.

Only an hour left to grab HAPPY TOGETHER. Can we get to 100 backers? kickrichard.com

Is it more wild that I'm in an Eisner nominated book, or that I'm in an Eisner nominated book for my story about playing sport? Either way, what a thrill.

Panel detail from something unannounced.

Lee Cronin's The Mummy is a wildly inaccurate title. The mummy's name is actually Katie. Worth watching for sheer volume of vomit between mouths.

Fucking finally.

It's that magical day of the year where my husband gets overwhelmed by how much he's spending on storage of frozen dog semen.

We're down to the final hours of the HAPpY TOGETHER campaign. In a week of Kickstarter turmoil, getting to the word out about campaigns has become extremely difficult. Check it out, and share it if you can. kickrichard.com

Today is my last chance to see The Mummy, but also life is finite. Suggestions?

please don't mistake indie creators continued use of ks to mean they don't care about the new rules and who they impact (literally everyone), but take it out on the payment processor etc and not the indie creators trying to get their projects funded and their collaborators paid.

My secret to getting 20 books out a year is replacing sleep with 20 minute naps on the floor with my feet up on the bed.

Last 2 days for HAPPY TOGETHER. A lot of bad stuff is coming down from Kickstarter right now, so while you're there, throw something towards some mature books, especially ones made by queer creators as those are inevitably the ones hurt most by these kinds of 'content guidelines.' kickrichard.com

And here I was assuming the sheep movie wouldn't make me cry.

Something new.

Art begins on a new horror short for an unannounced anthology.

I made a new book this weekend. I promise not to release it right away, not until I put out at least ONE more proper graphic novel.

I just realized over 2/3 (44/65) of the films I've seen in theaters this year aren't 2026 releases. Not sure what that says about me, but I feel like I'm falling behind.

HAPPY TOGETHER is a story about guilt mixed with grief. A man haunted by the ghost of his dead wife who only stayed because she died not remembering how awful he had been before she got sick. Another fun romp in my 100-page Horror colection. More below. Get it at kickrichard.com

I'm thinking of starting a Patreon.

My largest dog almost never shits in the house, but when he does it's always right where I have to step to get to the lightswitxh. All up hill from here today.

Compromise in a marriage means seeing Sheep Detectives BEFORE Mortal Kombat 2.

New headshot?

What if the only reason someone loved you was because they didn't remember who you really were? HAPpY TOGETHER is a 100-page horror story, live now on Kickstarter. kickrichard.com

Ah fuck, I wrote another book.

Someone got big mad at me yesterday for not knowing Baby Yoda and Grogu aren't the same, but characters change their names all the time, like how Wolverine became Logan in his third film.

I bet if Gambit had diarrhea it'd be explosive.

Notice is given, a new lease is signed. Now I have to somehow coordinate moving in the three day window I'm next in Los Angeles.

Bleak Week happening as I move apartments in between two comic conventions feels deeply unfair. Looking at the schedule so far there are only like 6 films I can maybe make it to.

What if the Baby Yoda film is the first Star Wars I see?

I have thoroughly enjoyed 50% of the Anne Hathaway films I've seen this week.

You ever think about how on a watch the second hand is the third hand?

Last time I dusted off a 10 year old idea to make an OGN they gave me awards. Better get your trophy polish ready.

Sent off finished work for two horror anthologies today and got confirmed for another one. If anyone has any knowledge of how to manipulate time I'd be open to hearing about it.
