Avatar contest winner, new comics, and happy February!

[MariNaomi]

Hi there,

 

Congratulations to the winner of my January avatar contest: Ramon Solis!

 

For the rest of you who participated, thank you for entering! I was so happy with the results of this contest, maybe I’ll do it again sometime. But in the meantime…

 

For the months of February through April, 2013, I am determined to get as many eyeballs on my new Tapastic web comic series, Said While Talking, as is humanly possible. 

 

I’m also determined to clean out my stock so I can shut down my storage unit. So. For every time you comment on or share/retweet any of my Tapastic comics between now and the end of April (every Thursday), I’ll give you 75% off any piece of my available artwork. That means you’ll only pay $37.50 for a $150 painting (plus shipping/handling).

 

Find out details here. 

 

Okay, now that I’ve gotten that out of the way, here are some new comics to read:

 

Smoke In Your Eyes: A Stranger’s House

An unsettling story about when I accompanied a friend to get nude photos taken in a stranger’s basement.

 

Said While Talking episode 2: The Politics of Hair

Lisa grills a hippy about his dreadlocks.

 

Said While Talking episode 3: A Waking Death

Yosiell and I contemplate whether it’s better to die awake or in your sleep.

 

Said While Talking episode 4: Scent of a Hippy

This comic is only dirty if your mind is dirty. Otherwise it’s kind of cute.

Said While Talking episode 5: Lazy Dating

I reveal the true reason girls like to date hippies. (j/k) (sort of)

And:

What would I be like if I had a penis?

 

My submission to the Batman on Robin art show (which is happening now, people! Come to the reception on 2/8 at Mission: Comics & Art!): Batman Loves Robin

I’ll be reading my Not-So-Butch story on February 20^th at Pegasus Books in Berkeley, CA. Find out more about it (and all my upcoming events) here. 

 

Thanks for reading, and have a great February!
