Last Call for Extra Pages!

Last Call for Extra Pages! published on No Comments on Last Call for Extra Pages!

You better have a good excuse for this, Finny. 8(

It’s been a busy week for me setting things up at my new house, but I finally have a desk and a proper workspace for doing comics again, which is really exciting after drawing at random flat surfaces for the past month or so. I managed to cut my thumb pretty badly earlier in the week, which kind of sucked. I’m just glad it wasn’t my drawing hand. D:

This is the LAST FULL WEEK for the extra page drive! If you’ve been thinking about commissioning me or buying something from the shop, February 28 is the final day of the page drive! All purchases from the shop, book purchases from lulu, commissioned art, and donations (which will snag you a copy of the current donation wallpaper!) in before midnight EST on the 28th will count towards earning a new page. One bonus page has been earned so far, and there’s still hope for a second page before the week is out. No contribution is too small!

The Cast page has been updated to include better descriptions and information, as well as some side characters who are still critical to the story. Everything has also been condensed into one main page for easier reference.

I have changed the policy for comments here this week. From now on, comments on pages will automatically close after seven days. Further commentary can go on in the forum. Any comments or complaints about this change can be taken up on the forums.

As usual, there is a new vote incentive this week, featuring Finnegan! We haven’t seen much of the younger of the Chio duo yet in the story, so taking a suggestion from the forum, this week’s incentive features facts about Finnegan. (Yet another reason to join the forums if you haven’t already! I’m always interested to hear the kinds of things people want to see on the site.)




It takes two clicks to vote. I’d really appreciate it! Votes help spread the word and get the comic out there, as well as showing off reader support. ♥

That’s about all for this week’s update. Get your shop orders/donations/commission orders in for extra pages soon! Have a great Monday, and a fantastic week!

I’ve made a change to the comment policy on the site which you can read about here.

Basically, comments will automatically lock seven days after a new page is posted. Discussion can continue in relevant sections of the forum instead. I like having comments available on the pages as they’re published, and it’s fun to see everyone’s immediate reactions, but there’s little point in discussion on pages that are 5+ years old at the beginning of the archive. Most regular readers don’t go back that far on a regular basis, and new readers just comment and pass by. It makes much more sense to have ongoing discussion available for everyone to jump in regardless of whether they’re long-time or first-time readers to the comic. I’ll be adding individual sections for chapters 1-5 to the comic discussion section, to hopefully keep spoilers at bay for those who aren’t as far in the story yet. Old comments and comments that are made within the seven day period will be frozen and remain on the page, you just won’t be able to add anything new once the comments are locked.

Complaints, comments, etc. can be directed here. Thanks.

Valentines and other tines. Or something, anyway.

AHA. Mystery revealed! Some of it, anyway.

Hope everyone had a Happy Valentine’s Day if you like that sort of thing, and a Very Pleasant February 14th if you don’t. Either way, there’s a brand-new vote incentive with Valentine’s art on TWC this week, so click to vote and check it out!

COME JOIN THE FORUMS! The handful of users there have been pestering me to try and get more people to join, and I’m not sure how else to do that other than point out that they exist. Seriously, there are a handful of awesome people there and it would be more awesome with more awesome people. You’re an awesome person, right? There’s a place for comic discussion, talk about other stuff, and someone even PM-ed me asking about the possibility of adding an RP section. (I’m personally not into that kind of thing, but I don’t see how it’s so bad so long as everyone behaves themselves and it doesn’t get out of hand.) At any rate, if you’re reading and commenting here, there’s a lot more to be had in the forums. It’s a good time, and you should come join us.

Remember, the extra page drive is still on! We’re right on the halfway mark for the next extra page! Commissions, donations, and everything in the shop counts! If you’re tired of the one-page-a-week crawling pace the comic goes at, this is your opportunity to help push things along faster! I have 95% of this whole chapter stacked up and waiting to go, all that needs to happen is hitting the next $50 mark.

In other related notes, I have a discount code for purchasing the Chapter One book from Lulu this month. If you use the code “WINTERBOOK” at checkout, you’ll get 10% off Chapter One: Wake Up in print! It includes 20 pages of extra comics that will never see the web, along with author Q & A, concept art, and other bonus content. It’s kind of like getting the DVD of your favorite tv show, except in print form. I’ll even count February book sales towards the extra page drive!
