Song of the Week

Happy Monday!

The Book of the New Moon Door does not appear to be on Audible yet, but I will keep watching. You can find all the other places where it is here.

There will be new pages of Last Watch Before Dawn tomorrow and Friday! If you missed the last page, it’s here.

Also, the holiday sale on paperbacks is still going (though if you’re shopping for Christmas, I’m afraid that shipping window has passed).

A couple of petitions:

Via Save the Children: Reinstate foreign aid for children

Via Amnesty International: Help stop the bloodshed in Sudan

Via USCPR: Free Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya and all political prisoners

I think that’s all for today. Whether you’re celebrating or not, I hope your holidays are happy and safe, and I’ll be back soon.

Song of the Week

Jesse Welles, “War Is a God”

Good morning!

I’m not sure if I can say I’m back yet, but I’m giving it a try. I’m almost done with Episode 9 of The Well Below the Valley, so that will be up on Patreon later this week (hopefully Wednesday), and then up here next week for free reading. As I work on the next episode, I’ll be trying to work out a sustainable posting schedule.

I’m also maybe two thirds of the way done with thumbnails for the first volume of the comic! Basically, I’m just sketching out panel layouts based on the script I’ve already completed. Once that’s done, I’ll be starting to draw.

Having given it some more thought, I’m not sure how much I love the title Chrysanthemum Dawn. It maybe has too many connotations of Imperial Japan, which I would like to tone down for two reasons: the setting is not Japan, though it takes some inspiration, and I’m opposed to imperialism generally as a human and more specifically as a human of Korean descent. I’ll do some brainstorming and get back to you. I’ll also take some pictures of the thumbnails to show you later this week.

Here’s some petitions that I’ve signed and you might like to as well:

Via Win Without War: Congress must pass War Powers Resolution

Via Civic Shout: Defend gender-affirming care to save lives

Via the Juggernaut Project: Don’t deport kids

As always, thanks for reading. I’ve missed you! Come by again soon.
