NOVEMBER BLOG
Hey folks! I will be soon going on break to start working on the last chapter of act 1 :0 this is a BIG milestone for me!! I'm a little proud of where I've got to in my comic project, warts and all!
With that said I've received a fair amount of feedback on the comic and am preparing some additional scenes to help fix the story elements that need it. I will be adding a NEW prologue (patrons will see that later this week! even beta test if you will ;) ) And an additional scene at the beginning of chapter 2 also. I'll also be reviewing chapter 3 and where I can.
On top of this, I've hired an editor to help with this process and I'm also looking to hiring a flats artist too to speed up my return, this is where I get out my begging bowl ^^; These services aren't free or cheap (and so they shouldn't be) So if you can become a patron or even a small one off donation via ko-fi I would be eternally grateful. Every penny helps, and if you can spare a penny, then please share this and the comic and help spread the word!!

Hey folks,
I'm pretty sure you've all heard and seen the recent event regarding the TOS of Tapas Media.
If you haven't then a quick run down is that they've been changed without really any real empathize on the fact that all works on the site, if they wish to publish, would need to give to Tapas media for the 'first right of refusal'. Meaning basically that if I wish to make money from my work I would need to ask for permission FIRST. It more or less overrides my own copyright.
Tapas have released a statement on this issue regarding 'protecting artists from bad deals' as the reasoning to this clause. My issue is with the ethics of this issue. the fact that its wasn't made public knowledge and had to be dug out people who fully read the TOS and that an IP legal professional has even looked at the clause and regarded it 'too vague' that in theory could prevent me from self-publishing 'without permission for my own content' or even printing prints! Thats too broad.
I should be updating on Sunday but regarding on if this issue is resolved by then will dictate my next course of action and possibly leaving the site if the communities concerns aren't dealt with.
BUT DO NOT FEAR!
I'm on LINE too
http://www.webtoons.com/en/challenge/silversong/list?title_no=653
and my own domain in on Tumblr!
http://www.silversongcomic.com
both have a subscription service if you own the app, you can either sub on LINE or follow the 'blog' on Tumblr to receive updates!
*EDIT:* Clause removed! I'm staying!

Hello folks again!
Has some of you may have seen at Patreon this month I've been revamping the tier system (its an on going process) So far I've introduced a published 'thank you' message to all blog and future publications for all Patrons. Batch updates for $3 and Lineart last month for $5 (with tutorials and process gif, videos to follow in coming months) Now I've been thinking about possible rewards for $10, so for I have google hangouts on my mind but I'm open to any suggests.
Also I'm gearing up to start prepping pages for Vol 1 Kickstarter! that'll be the first 3 chapters in print! Along for a host of goodies! It should be over 100 pages long with a bonus side side throw in.
Also I'll be in Italy this month for Fumettopolis! https://fumettopolis.wordpress.com/

Hey Sam :D I hope you don't mind, I kinda borrowed one of your lil birds to put in this page xD I was like "what kind of bird should I draw?" then I thought of the ones poking at my window and of course my mind went over like "oh yes, lil blue bird..."
