May Newsletter! ☀️ (Weekly Livestreams!)

Well, hello there! Thank you so much for sticking around this Patreon even though Check, Please! is out in the open and over. (I need to update all of the Patreon graphics....again!...eventually)

Don't worry! I still have PLENTY of comic projects to work and and many are already underway.

 ⭐ LIVESTREAMS ⭐

For the month of May...I'M BRINGING BACK WEEKLY LIVESTREAMS! Every Saturday at NOON CST, I'll be live-streaming on Picarto (where I'll try my damnedest to make progress on Madison.)  For me, with travel and promotion cancelled, this is a good compromise between streaming 3 days a week and streaming once a month. And with quarantine in full effect, I hope this can bring some structure to your schedule!

Notes
-  I'll attempt a public stream on Twitch every so often.
-  On the 23rd I'll be participating in a final critique for the SCAD SEQA Mentorship, and thus there will be no stream. (All of you are invited to this critique, btw! I will be sharing a Zoom meeting link closer to the date.)

Right here on Picarto! 

From my DC gig! She looks pretty out of it.

 From my DC gig!  Not the cheeriest pages.

⭐ What Are You Working On? ⭐ 

• Project Yesenia (working title and codename) - my next graphic novel which I've pitched as Freaky Friday meets Get Out. It's race and gender and socioeconomics and black girl magic (black girl tragic?). It is kicking my entire ass right now.
  
• Softball Comic - OH MY GOD....MAD'S PAGES....YOU GUYS!!! YOU GUYS THIS COMIC IS GOING TO BE SO GOOD. *ahem* I need to revise the last 100 pages of the script. (But holy dang.)
  
• Madison - The story of Jack Zimmermann's first visit to Madison, GA. Takes place the summer after Check, Please!: Year Two, after "the kiss." The current status for this project = revision. I started this project in 2015? 2016? I will revise thumbnails, rewrite dialogue, and finish roughs over the course of the year.
  
• Gig For DC Comics - I got a small 4 page gig from [redacted]! Just kidding. it's DC. I complete colors and submit pages this week.
  
• Jeeves & Wooster Fanart - This officially counts as it is a balm to my ruined brain. My goal is to make a zine...but I don't know how I want to execute this. Oh well. Tinkery-tonk.
  
• Day & Weekes - This podcast is currently on hold. For the $3 tier, I hope the increase in streams makes up for this!
  
• Check, Please! Year Four Kickstarter - Yes, I'm getting started on this now. These projects take SO long. I'm currently writing the back matter for the book and designing the Falconers jersey. 

And that's it from me! Who knows what May will bring.
