My rants, my ramblings, my nerd crushes, they all end up here.

The Dumbing of Age Book 14 Kickstarter blew past $26K, which means the DRESS CARLA MAGNET tier is unlocked!  Get a signed book and a Carla magnet when you pledge for that tier.  

If you pledged for any of the COMPLETE MAGNET POWER tiers, she's added to your pile!  

UP NEXT: a free DOROTHY MAGNET for everybody (who pledges for mailable goods) unlocks at $30k!  And I've got a SURPRISE MAGNET TIER loaded and ready at some point in the very near future.  

because who knows if there'll be a tomorrow

It's been a while since I posted here but hey, I wrote a book. PIRATES: A GRAPHIC HISTORY (But not THAT kind of graphic) is now available for preorder on Kickstarter. The title pretty much says it all... It's an all ages graphic novel about the history of buccaneers, brigands and other assorted barnacled baddies. Did I mention it's also a humor book?

Head to the campaign page for the full story, preview pages and the rundown of all the reward tiers available. The project funded in under a day but we're nearly at the halfway point for stretch goals. You can find it at https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/silvaniart/pirates-a-graphic-history-but-not-that-kind-of-graphic

Hello artsy fans!

My partner in comic crimes has spent the last 5 years researching and writing and pencilling this GN and it’s a corker of a read. He’s crowdfunding this to pay for printing and even paying for a pro colourist if enough stretch goals are hit. So if you love history with a healthy dose of Pythonesque satire, Go check out the kickstarter and get on board before yer pressganged!

I am kickstarting Hexual Fantasy Volume 1! This collects CinderHELLa, BellaDonna, and Body Builder, plus a couple of bonus stories and new pinups. Stretch goals include reprinting Eat me and This Book is Full of FILTH. Get it in print so it won't matter when all smut is banished from the internet!

I'm extremely nervous about this kickstarter, with the way things are with social media and NSFW work these days. I am going to need word-of-mouth more than ever. Please help me spread the word!

The Dumbing of Age Book 13 Kickstarter is in its final FOUR days!  It ends Tuesday night at 11:45pm Eastern, and as of this writing we’re under $1000 from unlocking LYLE, the twelfth character magnet!  It might even unlock today!  And a potential bonus thirteenth magnet unlocks at $55K, but that might be cutting it closer.

Anyway: My Peer Group’s Smoochy Chart Is Basically Now An Ouroboros will collect “Year Thirteen,” spanning the four storylines that start on August 22, 2022, and complete on August 15, 2023. This includes new commentary, behind-the-scenes artwork, and new character designs into a 218-page tome with luxurious glossy paper all bound up into a sturdy, full-color presentation.   It’s fancy!   Includes new commentary, behind-the-scenes artwork, and new character designs gathered into a hefty tome with luxurious glossy paper all bound up into a sturdy, full-color presentation.  There’s 24 Patreon bonus strips collected!  There’s rejected strips!  There’s… laundry!

Serpentine is now live on Kickstarter!

This collection of poems by Tara K. Shepersky features loads of full-page watercolor illustrations by me and gorgeous printing from our publisher, Bored Wolves. (You can even grab our first collaboration, Tell the Turning, as part of the campaign.)

The book is a love letter to a particular river in Northern California, and to Tara's peregrinations from north to south along various highways and byways over the course of her lifetime. Her work is contemplative, rich, tender, and full of love. I'm so excited for people to read it.

You can see some of the pieces I've completed so far up above (plus that otter painting I already shared, which will be a little bookmark). The sketch below is our current pass at the cover.

Not only is there a deck, there is also a coloring book that serves as the official guidebook. 79 cards that took almost 3 years to complete, now finally complete and ready for you to own.

It's a very nontraditional Tarot deck, deviating from the RWS in many ways, while still including a few nods to it. This deck includes more visibly queer, trans, fat, disabled, POC bodies, and the guide includes acknowledgement of neurodivergence, sex positivity, and nontraditional lifestyles. I just didn't want to repeat the same traditions that can be found in so many other decks. You may have noticed I said 79 cards, because I am including my own custom card(s) in the deck!

Besides the deck and book, there are:

  • A cloth carrying bag
  • A satin charmeuse tarot cloth that can also be a stylish scarf
  • Stickers of the major arcana
  • Giclée prints of any card

Stretch goals will unlock more custom cards, more glitz on the deck, enamel pins, and more. I worked really hard to make all of this, and I hope it connects with you.

It's fully funded in 48 hours! Hell yeah! Keep spreading the word so we can unlock stretch goals!
