Archive for chapter-29
End of chapter 29! “Freyde” (or “Freida”) is a Yiddish name meaning “joy.”
And with that, But I’m A Cat Person is going on Summer Vacation. Don’t worry, you’ll still get weekly updates with side strips and other bonus material — but my plan is to crack down and finish all the editing for the release of Volume 7 before I start posting chapter 30.
In other bonus news, there’s a new behind-the-scenes post for patrons! The secret origins of BICP characters (part 1).
Chapter 29 page 28 ~ It’s like this operation was TOO coordinated
The Patrick & Tiernan pin Kickstarter ends TONIGHT — just before the stroke of midnight, US Eastern!
As of this edit, there’s less than $20 left to raise. A couple more $5 backers would push us over the edge. If you want both pins, you can singlehandedly be the hero. (Want just one pin? You can be most of the hero. Unless you’ll need international shipping, in which case you’ll be a hero with bells on.)
Here’s the link one more time. Go go go!
Chapter 29 page 27 ~ Not a cliffhanger! That’s right, this chapter is RUNNING LONG
I’d been struggling with the pages these past couple weeks, then finally decided, screw it, I’m not gonna hit the endpoint I want before the 27-page cutoff. So forget the cutoff! It’s a special important chapter, it’s getting a special important pagecount.
Probably could’ve made it work if I saved some of the buildup at the beginning of this chapter for the aftermath in the next one. But oh well. Not gonna retroactively retool things now, just plunge forward with what I’ve got.
Kickstarter tier spotlight: The extra-fancy premium bundles!
You get both pins, all the digital swag, and a cameo appearance in the comic of your choice! In the sketch bundle, there’s also custom art of your very own Puppy or Kitty. (Or alternate critter of your choice.) (Pokémon are a valid choice.)
The highest bundle has free shipping to anywhere. Non-US readers, give it a look.
Each tier is available to less than 5 backers — the good news is, with the campaign two-thirds funded, we only need a few more to push us over the funding goal.
The deadline is this Thursday, so don’t wait too much longer!
Kickstarter tier spotlight: the digital-only bundles!
So, hey, maybe pins aren’t your thing. That’s cool.
But:
Are you a fan of But I’m A Cat Person and/or Leif & Thorn? Want to get a cameo for your OC, or pick up some ebooks, or commission a sketch of your favorite kitty/puppy/Pokémon/other critter TBA?
Ever thought about being a Patreon supporter, but haven’t taken the plunge yet — and maybe a one-time pledge would be easier anyway?
Take that plunge through Kickstarter. Treat yourself to the rewards you’ve been wanting, and help us hit our goal so the pins get made. It’s a win-win!
There’s a low-stakes $5 tier for “buy the artist a coffee” type backers, and a bigger $25 tier for “no, actually, give me All The Things” backers.
Available to unlimited backers, but only for one more week!
Kickstarter tier spotlight: Both pins!
That’s the Patrick pin AND the Tiernan pin. (I know, I know, very creative tier names in this campaign.)
Hate the idea of picking favorites? Want to support harmony between cat people and dog people? Just looking for the best deal on shipping? This is the tier for you.
Just 5 more both-pin backers and we’d be 50% funded!
(About today’s strip: if Kara Lynn’s monster form originated a bunch of dragon legends, Poe probably inspired the valravn.)
Kickstarter tier spotlight: Just the puppy plz
Pledge this tier for a Patrick pin! He comes with a black metal finish and screen-printed spots. He protecc, and he attac. No extra shipping charge for US backers, and I’ll even throw in the ebook version of But I’m A Cat Person Volume 1.
Limited to 25 backers. And, not that it’s a contest, but he currently has the slightest edge over the Tiernan tier…
