This free book festival was a lot of fun last time, and turnout was so big, they moved to a larger venue for this year! I'm really looking forward to doing it again. I'll be signing books (which will be available for purchase at the event.)

Here's a sneak peek at a box set coming out in the spring, featuring redone cover art! If you don't already have books 9-12, have worn out your copies, or just really like things that come in boxes, you'll love it.

"[...] the unicorn screamed. It was not at all like the challenging bell with which she had first met the Red Bull; it was an ugly, squawking wail of sorrow and loss and rage, such as no immortal creature ever gave."

Thanks to everyone who pre-ordered the new "Lauren Ipsum" book so far! Always happy that so many people are happy to continue reading my strip as it soon enters its 3rd year.

Still taking pre-orders! Planning to ship them out by January - ko-fi.com/s/cdec8cd7c7

Alternate cover redo concept for “Unicorn Selfies.”

I kind of want Phoebe’s expression, at least, to be sillier.
