Here’s a peaceful #mossmonday to take a break from the campaign craziness. Go outside and enjoy the fall colors today. Pet some moss.

We did it!! 🥳 Ode is funded! 🎉 Indiegogo didn’t make it easy, but you all showed up and made it happen. Thank you so much to everybody who backed it, or helped spread the word, or just took the time to check it out.

Silverdale! Swing on by the Kitsap Mall this weekend to see some awesome indie creators and collectibles vendors.

A moss may be the star of the story, but Ode also has human characters, enigmatic though they may be. Check out some early concept work for the Voice (drawn by @_pppond ), and learn more about her in the short story, “Anacrusis,” on my Substack!

Here also is Yarrow reading to Sorrel
I wanted to have their book out in time for TAGS but my InDesign doc is now like 40 odd pages. Oops

It’s a long way to the top, if you wanna be sentient moss. But this moss is 94% of the way there!

We have just one week left, and $140 left to successfully fund Ode! As the Brits say, it’s squeaky bum time (I’ve been watching Bake Off). 😬🍑

If you’d like to give a little extra to help us hit that goal, there are some cool add-ons you could consider picking up!

80% funded already, with about a week left. And they’re not asking for much. (Also: #cyanotypes to funders!)

Absolutely starstruck! 🤩 Look who I ran into today! They say never meet your heroes, but this is the exception. They are every bit as lovely in person as they seem in Ode!

Have your own moss encounter:

We have TWO DAYS LEFT and we still have... quite a few items... so it's time to do one final extremely unhinged OMEGASALE. All comics are 30% off, with 50% off anything that's not a standalone, compendium, or volume 1. Single issues are $1 each and BOGO. (1/?)

Phillip is the amazing artist behind Finale and the cover for Canary! He’s also an all-around cool guy and a well-spoken creative person with interesting stuff to say. Check out his Substack!
I started a Substack. Here’s my first post. If you’re a fellow creative, I’m sure you’ll understand. If you’re not, I’m sure you’ll get it, anyway. 😬

Moss is a powerful ally against climate change!

Sphagnum moss is believed to store more carbon than any other plant through a process known as carbon sequestration, which mitigates climate change by storing CO2, slowing the accumulation of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.

Faye Stacey ( @pondi.bsky.social ) is the creator responsible for all the art, interiors and cover, that you see in Ode! I first discovered their work through Find a Seat, a comic they wrote and illustrated.

A moss may be the star of the story, but Ode also has human characters, enigmatic though they may be. Check out some early concept work for Ohr, drawn by @pondi.bsky.social !

And don’t forget to preorder Ode on Indiegogo!
