I will be attending WV Pop Culture Con alongside the fantastic Kelci Crawford!  See you in Morgantown, WV on the weekend of September 7th-September 8th!

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


SPACE Panel

Picture
Thank you to everyone who showed up for my CosPain Live Draw panel at SPACE this past weekend!  I had a great time, and a lot of people gave me positive feedback.  I definitely plan to do this again.

​I have video footage of the panel, but it may be a little while before I can make it available.  The audio is a little hard to hear, as the panels at this con were in an open venue with a fair amount of traffic.  I also STUPIDLY did not use the microphone, since I figured everybody was pretty close together and could hear me fine.  I will be working on cleaning that up, so hopefully I will be able to post it soon.


Livestreams


It will probably be a couple of weeks before my next livestream, as I have a family commitment this coming weekend and 
3 Rivers Comicon the weekend after that.  That livestream, however, will be my 100th strip.  Expect some exciting things from that one.

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
Progress has slowed down a little bit due to my weekend activities, but I’m still going strong and am on track to finish the pencils by 6/1.

Lyft

Picture
So recently, the freelance game has been a little light.  I’ve signed up with Upwork, which will hopefully help improve my luck with getting creative gigs, but it has yet to pay off, and I still need an additional source of income while working on my own projects.  It is to that end that I have signed up to be a Lyft driver.

So far, it’s been decent.  I can set my own hours of operation, so I’ve been able to continue doing comic work without any real interruption.  In fact, I’ve found ways to work while waiting for fares. This change should not have any effect on my creative output.

I debated whether or not to even mention this change in my newsletter, but I decided that it represents a significant-enough shift that I wanted to make you all aware of it.  This is the first non-creative job I’ve taken since I left customer service to attend the Center for Cartoon Studies in 2014.  It was hard to “go back”, even for something as flexible as Lyft, but reducing my financial burden even a little will allow me to keep doing what I love.

Wrap-Up

And with that, this newsletter is at an end!  I’d better get back to preparing for the next two weekends.

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.
