SEED LEVEL

Thank you so much! At this level you will have access to my recommendation posts and book reviews. Once or twice a month I'll post about something I really like and explain why. A lot of the things I recommend will be podcasts, webcomics or other online content, though some will also be novels, songs, or other things that I fall in love with. I also occasionally post art at this level, before it goes up online elsewhere. I will also mail you one or two surprise treats per year, usually a small zine or postcard!

In addition to my recommendations you will also have access to my Patrons only blog. This will contain work in progress posts of things that are some level of "secret" or as yet unannounced. Some things I posted in the past, which are available in the archives, include: comics I pitched to The New Yorker; character designs and concept art from my new graphic novel project, SAACHI'S STORIES; the spring, summer and fall Fansplaining tiny zines; thumbnails, pencils and inks for "Werekat", a queer horror comic written by Rachel Pollack; thumbnails, pencils and inks of a 5 page comic for the Heartwood Anthology backers; pencils and inks of a 20 page comic for Iron Circus Comic's Faster Than Light Y'all anthology; pencils to my 7 page comic for the "Mine!" anthology benefiting Planned Parenthood, written by Josh Trujillo; pencils of a 10 page story for the Gothic Tales of Haunted Love Anthology, written by S.M. Beiko; pencils and final art of the 8 page Sun Card Tarot comic I am drew for the Tabula Idem anthology; pencils and final art of the 9 page gay superheroes story I drew for the second Death Saves anthology; and all the concept art from my book BREATHE: JOURNEYS TO HEALTHY BINDING. I will also mail you one or two surprise treats per year, usually a small zine or postcard!

At this level you will have access to all of the posts from the previous levels and also my Genderqueer Comics series. I drew over 160 strips which formed the earliest draft of my memoir, GENDER QUEER. You will also be getting pencils, cut pages, and updates on my next graphic novel projects. Any gender-related short stories I write for anothologies will also be posted at this level, such as my 9 page story "What Am I Waiting For?" about top surgery anxiety, and the follow-up "One Year Top Surgery Anniversary". I will also mail you between one or two surprise treats per year, usually a small zine or postcard!

Forest Level supporters, you will receive all the earlier mentioned mailed rewards, access to all blog posts, and my eternal gratitude. In addition you will receive four original drawings per year. I will mail you the finished pieces, which will probably be about 5x5 inches, done in ink or watercolor. Once per year you can specifically request a subject, but the rest of the year I would like to surprise you with my own ideas!
