Most Popular Post!

It’s not surprising that this nice bit of Yotsuba&! kawaiiness has become my most popular post, but the difference between its rank and that of my second-place post is quite striking.  396 notes' worth, in fact; that's a remarkable 376 notes ahead of the 2nd-ranked post. A bit more than 200 of these are confirmed Likes, and more than 190 are reblogged. Many thanks to Daily Yotsuba for making a bunch of the downstream shares happen, and everyone else, so here's some more Yotsuba-chan goodness for all ...

RIP, Raide

A video tribute to Raide, also known around the 'net as Fiohnel, late art director of Katawa Shoujo, who passed away awhile back...

For me, the combination of this painting, and this particular music, in this video is so perfectly vested with Sehnsucht that it almost hurts to watch, but in a good way. YMMV, of course...

One Good Thing About Twitter ...

They say that Twitter is this truly horrible and awful place, akin to the Tenth Circle of Hell in Dante's Inferno, only worse.

It probably is, but it helps if you simply repeat this comfy mantra to yourself:

The main purpose that Twitter serves is so we can bless the ‘net with our re-Tweets of Diva’s Little Nuns webcomic every day!

Duck!

Mark your calendars for October 11th! That’s my birthday, and it’s also the launch date for my third artbook, The Style of Loish. I’ve been working on this book for almost a year now and I can’t wait to share it with you guys. It will be about how I developed my own style, and also feature tips and exercises for artists who are still searching for their own artistic voice.  It’ll be full of artwork and insights into my process, while inviting the reader to reflect on their own influences and artistic style. And of course there will be goodies like prints, signed copies, and fun stretch goals!

I’ll announce more about the kickstarter as we get closer to the launch date, but for now, remember the date: 💜 October 11th! 💜
