THANK YOU SO MUCH, this Patreon drives my whole life. Because of the stability of income from this Patreon I do nothing but work on projects, from when I paw bleary-eyed for my phone in the morning to when I pass out at 5am. I can't imagine having done any of this without you, so the deepest thanks from me and also from all my readers, collectors, collaborators and community. As of 2022, this Patreon will be paying into my mortgage, which has been my lifelong dream and about as much of a lifetime win as an independent artist can hope for.

OKAY BUT WTF IS GOING ON HERE

This Patreon started in 2014 as a fundraiser for my comics work (the stuff I got Eisner nominations for in 2014 & 2015). Following the 2016 election I was consumed by trans-activism to try to help my community, and this Patreon shifted to fund those short-fuse projects, some of which are listed below to give you some context. As of 2020 I am returning to long-term art projects, primarily a new comic called Wet Ochre (but also still recording music & customizing motorcycles).
