The Hues Vol. 2 Kickstarter! And Alex at Ohayocon!

KS header graphic Hiya, folks!  Hope you’re all having an awesome New Year so far– my 2016 has already been surprisingly packed.  Today, for example, I’m launching the Kickstarter for the second book collection of The Hues!  If you’d like to take a look at my campaign, it would be much appreciated!  Last year’s drive for Volume 1 went just about as perfectly as I could’ve hoped, so I’m looking forward to doing it again. 😀 AND, if you’re in the Central Ohio area this weekend, then you’re in luck– I’m going to be at Ohayocon!  I’ll be at artist alley table 85, which is right up front and to the right when you enter the room.  We’ll be celebrating both the launch of the Kickstarter and my comic’s 3rd anniversary all weekend, so stop by and say hello!
