After weeks of advertising and livestreaming, it's finally time for the Small Press and Alternative Comics Expo! If you're in the Columbus area, swing by the Ohio Expo Center and check out the wide array of amazing cartoonists with their works on display!

TONIGHT, IT BEGINS.

During the Kickstarter for Less Than Secret, we announced that we would present a cryptid-themed roleplaying game adventure as a reward for hitting certain goals. Wednesday, November 30th at 7pm ET, we're finally bringing it to you.

Head over to the CanonWrite YouTube Channel for the premiere of HUNT FOR THE YETI! All of the players will be active in the chat for the duration of the video. We had a blast recording it, and we can't wait to share it with all of our amazing backers.

A Live Chat with Angela Boyle!

Hi everyone!
I hope everyone's Thanksgiving weekend has gone well! We've had a nice vacation from livestreaming, but it's time to break our fast with ANOTHER INTERVIEW!

This Sunday at 2pm ET, join interviewer Ben Wright-Heuman as he talks to cartoonist Angela Boyle about her mystery story for What the Gnomes Know, "Gnoir with a Silent G"! We'll be discussing the mystery-writing process, the unusual hybrid comic format of the project, and what it's like running an anthology (something that Angela has a LOT of personal experience with). Head over to the CanonWrite YouTube channel to check it out!

We are challenging people to color this page (which you can download here) and post it on Facebook, Instagram, and/or Twitter with the hashtags #WhatTheGnomesKnow and #gnomecomics, and with a link to the Kickstarter (tinyURL.com/gnomecomics).

After the Kickstarter wraps up on December 7th at 7:07 pm ET, we'll scour social media for everyone that took the challenge and randomly select one lucky winner to receive an original digital illustration!

Whether you're a professional artist, an amateur enthusiast, or a little kid with crayons, give it your best shot and help us spread the word about this fantastic project! We can't wait to see what you have in store for us!
