If you’re interested in seeing them as they come out, the best way is to follow my YouTube channel, or my Twitch channel if you want to join in on the livestreams, well, live!

The PVDCast

I was recently interviewed for 
The PVDCast!  It was a lot of fun and turned out great!  Shout-out to John Orlando, who is a fantastic interviewer.  You can find the episode here.

The Letters of the Devil II

Unfortunately, progress has been much slower than I had hoped.  Inking with CosPain is very quick, but the art style for Letters is more detailed, which has hindered progress.

As of right now, I am not altering the timetable.  I hope that, once I really get rolling, the process will get faster.  There is a very good chance, however, that I will have to adjust the deadlines in the near future.

The good news is, I have room to maneuver in this case.  Post-Production is basically the final stage, so the month between the current Post-Production deadline and the Total Completed Pages deadline is pure buffer.  In addition, I spent part of last week setting up the InDesign file for the book, which will auto-update as I complete pages and drastically cut down on the time I need for the Post-Production stage.  In other words, I have almost 2 months of extra time already built into the schedule.  Even if I do end up pushing back the Inking deadline, the overall project deadline will not need to be changed.

Wrap-Up

And with that, this newsletter is at an end!  Time to get back on track.

If you want to support my work further, please visit my online store.  I also have Patreon and Ko-Fiaccounts if those are more your speed.

Rock on, guys, and never stop drawing.

Greetings and salutations!

It’s been a good couple of weeks! Without any further ado, let’s begin!

Released this Week

CosPain #99: Forced Enjoyment
(Hi-Res Patron Version) CosPain #100(!): Hospitality

Upcoming Events

Otakon 2019: July 26-28, 2019, Washington, D.C.
SaikouCon 2019: August 3-4, 2019, White Haven, PA
Matsuricon 2019: August 16-18, 2019, Columbus, OH
WV Pop Culture Con: September 7th-8th 2019, Morgantown, WV

So the dates for SaikouCon in my newsletter have been adjusted. Don’t worry, the con is still going all three days. Due to a family conflict, however, I will only be tabling on Saturday and Sunday. It was either miss a day or drop the con, and I appreciate that SaikouCon gave me the flexibility to still attend.

I also have a last-minute con to announce!

Tiny Papers will be my first outdoor con! I’m excited to see how it goes! Stop by Gahanna, OH on June 22nd between the hours of 11 AM and 3 PM and join in the fun!

If you know of any events that are accepting artists, let me know!

Livestreams

Thank you to everyone who joined me for the live draw of my 100th CosPain strip! It was a long one, but I was excited to hit this milestone with all of you!

I haven’t had a chance to prepare the replays, but I hope to have those completed and posting by the end of the week. I also plan on hosting my next livestream in the next couple of weeks. I’ll keep you informed.

If you’re interested in seeing them as they come out, the best way is to follow my YouTube channel, or my Twitch channel if you want to join in on the livestreams, well, live!

The Letters of the Devil II
Picture
The last couple of weeks have been VERY nice. I’d been working nonstop for a while, and since I finished my last deadline almost a week early, I took some time to not make comics. I love my work, but everyone needs a break on occasion.

The next deadline is to have the inks completed by August 1st. That’s gonna be tough, not gonna lie, but I’ll be able to make it work. I successfully built up a backlog on CosPain that I plan to supplement on weekends, so I’ll have the room to breathe that I need.

Wrap-Up

And with that, this newsletter is at an end! I have quite a bit of inking to get back to.

If you want to support my work further, please visit my online store. I also have Patreon and Ko-Fi accounts if those are more your speed.

Rock on, guys, and never stop drawing.
