So…
I’m about to embark on an indefinitely long journey, moving from place to place every month, around the country, making a portable storage unit out of my car, and using airbnb.com for all my stays.
What this means, and how you can support my endeavor:
1. Indiegogo Campaign! I am doing an Indiegogo campaign in exchange for artwork I’ll be doing while on the road. Want art from me? Such as watercolors, ink drawings, character sketches, and oil paintings? Go check it out. And help launch my travels!
2. Patreon Page! Do all of you know I have a Patreon page? An awesome way to support an artist whose work you love. It’s kind like an online tip jar. Check it out.
3. TopatoCo store! Any other books or merch in my TopatoCo store.
4. Amazon Wish List! I have some books and supplies to help me on my way on my Amazon Wish List.
5. Little Dee Originals won’t be on sale for however long I’m on the road (your last day, February 25). So, if you want to purchase any of the archive strips, and help support the launching of my journeying, it might be a while before they’re available again.
6. Little Dee b&w collections! As you may know, I have completed the full-color Little Dee graphic novel (totally new story!) for Penguin/Dial books. It is due out this summer, at which point (according to contract) the Little Dee b&w collections, which you know and love, will have to be made unavailable. So, make sure to make purchases before this summer. And what better time than now, to help launch my travels!
7. Simply Leave Me a Tip!
Leaving her alone in the residence she is currently alone in because her sister is obviously inpatient long-term at a facility?
That sentiment just seems odd.
@Herandar, a fair comment, I didn’t provide enough information for that not to be a possible interpretation. So, I adjusted Lilly’s dialogue in panel #6, and now she clarifies that she’s “in and out” of the care unit.
It must be serious. I wonder if it has anything to do with that “Galnek-beast hole” incident, does it?
Oh and in the 5th panel Lilly is shown as “Lillz” FYEO artist/writer/creator Christopher.
For Your Eyes Only no bond needed.
@Night-Gaunt, Ha! Maybe.
And I wanted it to say “Lillz” as an affectionate name. Wasn’t sure if i should put an apostrophe before the “z” or put quotes around the whole word… hm. That latter might be best. I’ll ponder it.
No, “Lillz” is a nickname – don’t see any reason to put it into quotes, any more than you would any other name.
And even if Lily were more-or-less permanently in a care facility, as long as you have a home, you tend to think of it as your home. Especially if you have a younger (yes?) sibling that you are accustomed to take care of, and oversee (even from a distance). Once Lily moves out, Foxglove will be Responsible for the place, as opposed to Lily being Responsible. Lily will no longer be even a presence in the home, if that makes sense – she may visit, but it will no longer be her home. It’s amazing how much you can feel the presence of someone who isn’t actually there – and how much emptier the place becomes when you know they won’t be back.
I just found this webcomic. My name is Lily. I go by Lilz as well! This is the first time I’ve seen that nickname outside of my own little world.
Lilz. Huh. Interesting.
