MOVING TO COMIC FURY! LINK BELOW!!

Real, disabled HUMAN artist who has never and will never use AI.

Idiopathic Hypersomnia advocate who likes to share awareness of IH through my own experiences of having that very rare neurological sleep disorder.

For some reason, I thought that making a small comic is the easiest way to do that while I also juggle an indie author "career", create art commissions, and hope that next morning won't hit me like a sledgehammer covered in spikes.

Tools

Wacom small drawing tablet, Medibang Paint, and way too much imagination.

ANNOUNCEMENT!

(I posted this as the last Tapas episode as well in hopes of you all seeing it before I remove all of my comics from here in start of 2027.)

You can keep up with Nia in ComicFury, and Kofi. I won't be posting here anymore after this announcement, but will answer any questions you may have.

Please follow me from any of these links to keep up with me as I work on the move when I should be celebrating the 5 year anniversary of this comic instead:

Due to Tapas stopping their services next year, I regret to inform you that my comic must move to a new place. I am looking through my options, and the most viable at this moment is ComicFury. It is a free site, where I can make up a website for all of the comics.

If you have preferred sites you like to use to read comics from, please leave me a reply here and I will check them out.

AND - due to the move, I likely need to stop posting here soon and focus on moving the 180 comics to the new site. It will take me pretty much forever to do, as I am also working on deleting my Pixelfed, doing a point-and-click videogame (not about IH, it is a horror game) demo, working on a big commission, AND trying to re-release my old books while working on new ones.

MEANWHILE: All of the comics WILL BE AVAILABLE IN KOFI, as usual. Please follow me there to not miss any updates, art, blogposts, and other fun stuff:

Or in my Mastodon:

Thank you for supporting the comic here for so long, all of 353 of you (what a lovely number). I hope you will follow me to elsewhere, and help spread IH awareness in the future too. <3

World's First IH comicbook is now out, and you can buy it from Amazon, leave a review, and help spread IH awareness!

https://www.amazon.com/Idiopathic-HypersomNIA-Prison-Sleep-NIA/dp/9528818390

I put the price as low as I could, set it to wide distribution so everyone should be able to access the paperback copy, and the hardback will come out in the end of June. <3

Comicbook has reached the point where it goes to proofreader and I get to do the final edits to the art pages! It is so close to be ready, but I also need to restart commissions to pay for it all. (:

Hey I likely wont have time to do comic this week. I am working on the comic book, and have lost days due to the holidays, and not feeling super well. I should be able to announce the preorder in couple of weeks though!

My paperback comic book is coming!! And if you want your name mentioned in it, you can get it there by leaving me a donation and telling me the name you would like me to use on the "thanks" page!

Kofi: https://ko-fi.com/hiisikolo_art

PS: I am formatting and editing the book as fast as I can. For now I think the preorders will open in end of April, and the publishing date would hit turn of May-June!

I am so sorry - last week's comic is delayed to this week (or even possibly the next) due to me being absolutely slammed with stuff I have to get done first. I have some financial issues due to social security changes happening in my country, health stuff to deal with, and just general exhaustion in midst of it all.

Thank you for understanding. <3

I wrote an update in my ko-fi to all who love this comic. It is a bit of a heads-up in case of a worst case scenario and I would really appreciate if you read it:

I am not trying to alarm anyone about the possibility of me needing to close hiisikoloART and what that means to the comic. I will keep fighting little longer and hoping that it will be pay off. I am just a one person, and...well. Read the post if you can. Thank you for your support. <3

I have to move the last comic of the year to next week due to unforeseen circumstances. Sorry for the delay, everyone. <3
(Also, I am still working on the physical comic book and am still on track to get it published for next Summer!)

Thank you for all of your support. <3

FIRST EVER HYPERSOMNIA FOUNDATION DONATION!
Thanks to you, I was able to do the promised HF donation! I put this time all of my tiny ad-revenue (which was whopping 3 USD), and then a little bit extra just to make it more worth while thanks to them for their work in making IH more seen. (: You can also do a tiny donation here if you want (or just keep reading my comic and drop me ink sometime and I will give a portion of that as a collective donation to them whenever the give-back reaches over 25USD): https://www.hypersomniafoundation.org/

I redacted some information so my legal name and such wont be shared freely. But I figured to have actual proof that I did it. (:
