That fox blends almost too well into the background, oops. Oh well, it’s not like he’s the one to worry about anyway….
And I’m sure this won’t be the last time we see Coal’s Claws of Frustration.
New TWC incentive! An old character from early story concepts that was eventually scrapped. He was kinda neat, but didn’t really fit with the world or the story as it changed later. Originally TMK’s story was ridiculously complicated and involved like nine or ten other side characters besides Coal and Loki. After pondering and asking friends for advice, I streamlined the story. Thank goodness too, I can barely manage the five main protagonists I have, let alone ten. I always go overboard the first time I write something up. D:

Dan and Mab’s Furry Adventures is, as you can probably guess, a comic with furries in it! Normally this isn’t my thing, I just have a hard time getting into them, but I’ve been reading this comic for years. Like…a really long time. Like eight years, probably longer. It has quite an immersive world that I don’t always remember but it’s funny. Really funny. The author has a great sense of humor and sometimes the funniest parts are the titles of the individual strips. It never fails to make me giggle! The artist is also very diligent and hard working and I’m amazed at all the things she does for the site. This comic is pretty safe for most, I would give it a PG rating.
Okay I hated seeing that “so sorry update must change” post so now I’m going to spend Tuesdays pimping comics! Yaaay! A lot of the time I edit my links page without any sort of notification, because that page is more a reservoir of links for me in case I’m on a computer without my bookmarks, but then you guys don’t know when I add a link to something awesome SO now I will spend Tuesday pimping comics I like. For now it’s webcomics, and if I run out I’ll probably do printed comics too (though those are mostly manga).
First link: Hanna Is Not A Boy’s Name. I actually doubt anyone who spends any time looking at awesome webcomics hasn’t seen this, but in case you haven’t, you should. I love the way Tessa Stone, the artist, incorporates textures, edgy designs, creative layouts, and imaginative type treatment all into one mind-blowing piece of storytelling. There is swearing and zombies and vampires, and normally I’m not into paranormal stuff, but she balances that with diverse characters and never-saw-it-coming stories, so I’m hooked forever. Check it out!
Okay guys, I’m sorry! So sorry. I’m afraid I have to cut back updates. ;____; My buffer has run out and I’m only a couple pages ahead of next week’s pages, and I need a bigger buffer. BUT next week will still update Tuesday and Thursday. The week after that, the week of the 22nd, the pages will start updating on Thursdays. I hate to cut back, but I’d rather keep a consistent update date than just update whenever I get a page done. I like mostly solid deadlines, otherwise I’ll never finish anything. It’s NOT a hiatus, and the pages will update unless something really messed up happens (knock on wood). This weekend is actually a three-day weekend, so I’ll try to get a good jump on that buffer again. :3
I’m also running out of incentive pictures, though I have some old sketches I can put up. Any requests out there for incentive pics? Nothing terribly involved, but since they’re incentives for readers I figured it would be wisest to ask…the readers. XD
Thanks so much for reading guys! See ya’ll next update. ;D
Next week I’m going on vacation! Yay! The comic will update thanks to nifty php stuff, but there won’t be a new TWC incentive next Thursday. Awww. D:
I also fear I might have to revert back to once a week updates. My next two weekends will be full of non-work-inducing situations, which is usually when I get a page done, sometimes during the week I manage another. During my vacation I’ll certainly be working on the comic in terms of story and thumbnails for the next chapter, but actual pages might be a bit slower. I’m so sorry guys! The first eight pages of chapter one are done, but it might be another week or more before I can start the next. I’m not sure if I’ll have to go to once a week, but we’ll have to see.
Till next time! <3
The donation drive for the Comic Creators Alliance was fantastic! $10,000 was raised to split between two charities who fight to prevent human trafficking and treat victims of it. I was so honored to be a part of it, and it feels so good to help out. I hope they do it again next year!
In other news…new chapter! Soon the character who will most likely become the fan favorite will arrive. Probably. I hate to jinx myself though….
