For some reason I have a bunch of writer friends. In fact now that I think about it, I probably know more writers than I do visual artists. I like writers because they always get very excited when they see drawings based on their stories. Taking the ideas they have in their heads and turning them into pictures is like a magic trick to many writers. Maybe that's why I like them so much. When I hang out with writers I'm the best artist in the room!

If you live in Australia then it is already tomorrow but that's just your today so don't freak out. That means you're "Tomorrow" (Friday, July 31) is the last day to snag badges at the Early Bird Rate. So you should do that!

Grace, Part Five can be found here.

Our Automata Kickstarter is just about funded and we have just posted a new update over on the site. We've added another pin design as an optional ADD-ON. Here's the design:

This Friday is the last day to get the early bird discount on your PAX Aus tickets. Three day badges are 100% sold out now but you can still pick up individual day badges. I've flown to Australia twice now and I have to say, 20 hours in the air is not my favorite thing in the world. With that said, I absolutely love Melbourne. If you have any tips for making the flight more humane I'd love to hear them. Right now I pass the time by alternating between trying unsuccessfully to sleep and watching movies I didn't want to watch when they were in theaters.

I’m back from almost two weeks of vacation and I feel great. we spent a few days camping here in Washington and then drove over to Idaho and spent another week at a lake cabin in Coeur D’Alene. I drew the first three Nightlight strips before I left but left the fourth for when I got home. I was struggling with the fourth comic because I wasn’t sure what I wanted the monsters in this world to look like. I knew I wanted them to come in all shapes and sizes but I was looking for some theme to tie them all together. When I left for my vacation I had no clue what that theme would be.

Grace, Part 4 can be found here.

I'm pushing myself with this Nightlight story and I'm really proud of how it's turning out. I really wanted this family to feel real and so I'm packing in lots of little details. Some of them are things you can catch if you look closely but others are more personal.

Just as it says on the tin, it's Grace: Part Three. It's not the sequel! It's the threequil? Treequil? Triquil. It's the third one.

Our crack team of industry veterans has assessed this year's crop, and selected from among them the most savory morsels for your enjoyment at the show - some of which you can check out now. A menu of these delights can be found below!

There was a lot of interest in us opening up more Hoodies, so you can do that now as an add-on to any tier. Hit up the official update at Kickstarter for details.

More Nightlight starring Grace, coming your way. It gets worse before it gets better, but I'm not telling you anything you didn't know. I had the best time writing this shit.

Very, very pleased to kick off a six part Nightlight thingamajig for you here on the site, while we attempt to take vacations which overlap somewhat-but-not-really. He is going to Gjalladhall, the "Place of Elder Songs," where he will attempt to set an old question of lineage to rest. I will be drunk in Scotland. I'm not leaving yet, though; you gotta put up with me for a couple more days. I have to take a moment to honor my cohort for his work on this series, I legitimately don't know where it came from. Grace's geometric hair is my favorite thing about the set, though you might find something else to like before it's over. This is all part and parcel of a ton of secret Nightlight work that would legitimately freak you out if you knew it.

Gabe's dad is kinda like a Dad Dad. He's like a diagram of a dad, with all the dad parts, all the… phalanges, that dads always have, and we can compare other dads to that dad in order to determine a kind of universal score.

I am often surprised by things that aren't that surprising. This is something that you have probably noticed if you spend any time around here. I am just trying to think my thoughts, and invariably I am interrupted by some kind of fucking nonsense.

You will be hard pressed to exist on the Internet without seeing tons of that insane Google ANN Shit. When I say Insane Shit, I'm talking about those piles of slimy, wet dogs people keep sending you. Specifically I'm referring to the greasy, omniscient dogs made of paisley slop worshipping birds that dwell in an infinity of jade pagodas.
