Page 17 ... I tried my best to make the frog act like a dog (well ... a cartoon dog) particularly in that fourth panel. This project is part of Printopia on BackerKit ... there are a bunch of other really cool books being crowdfunded. Check them out, too. LittleWitchWillow.com

Bad doggie ... good froggie! Page 16 of the LWW story. We've passed the midway point in the story ... still 2 weeks left the crowdfunding. Is this the kind of thing you'd love to have on your shelf to enjoy anytime? Or give to the Halloween-loving kids in your life? LittleWitchWillow.com

I don't know if it was the emotions of the presenters, the musical performance, or the number of honorees who hold deep, personal importance to me ... but the In Memoriam from this year's Emmy Award show really got to me. youtu.be/cOxmrVZr5WQ?...

Here's the latest cartoon homage from 50 Years in the Dungeon. (I'm still doing the show on Wednesday nights, stop by if you aren't busy!) It's my Stan!ification of @geraldbrom.bsky.social's classic painting of a Belgoi (it was in the original Dark Sun boxed set AND on Dragon Magazine 173).

Page 15 of LLW's Big Day ... Oh, doggie ... I don't think you wanna be messing with a witch's familiar. We have definitely hit the "middle of the fundraiser lull" ... just about $100 shy of the funding point. Who wants to help put us over the top? LittleWitchWillow.com

Page 14 of the story ... this could spell trouble! 40 people backed Little Witch Willow last week ... can you help her reach some more? If you're enjoying this story, please consider sharing it with your family, friends, and followers. LittleWitchWillow.com

Thanks to everyone who has backed Little Witch Willow. We're just $120 away from funding! Want to help? Share the comics as I post them. Sure, you can become a backer (and I really appreciate that too) but the BIGGEST help is spreading the word ... which is free. LittleWitchWillow.com

Page 13 of Little Witch Willow's Big Day ... "They get CANDY?!?" We're closing in on the basic funding level on the Backerkit campaign. A little more than $100 and the print run will be funded! Keep spreading the word — Willow needs all the friends she can get! LittleWitchWillow.com

Page 12 of Little Witch Willow's Big Day ... It's super convenient when you're everyday outfit can double as a Halloween costume. The campaign has topped $1k and is moving up toward the $1.5 goal. I think we're gonna get books! LittleWitchWillow.com

Page 11 of Little Witch Willow's Big Day ... now we see why the day is so big—it's Halloween! The crowdfunder launched yesterday and we raised nearly a thousand dollars so far. Still plenty of time to get involved ... but don't wait TOO long! LittleWitchWillow.com

In the first day, Little Witch Willow got just shy of $1k in pledges! Thank you to EVERYONE who was a Day 1 supporter ... but there's still time to hop on your broomsticks and join us! Tell your friends ... tell your family ... tell the members of your coven! LittleWitchWillow.com

Of course Willow is headed to the cemetery ... it's so popular, folks are just dying to get in! Sorry, couldn't resist. Here's page 8 of Little Witch Willow's Big Day. Wonder what kind of trouble she's gonna dig up? (Sorry ... did it again.) LittleWitchWillow.com

Morning chores out of the way, Little Witch Willow heads off for her big day! ... Page 7 of the book that will be crowdfunding starting Thursday! Come join us on this wild ride!

Page 6 of LWW's Big Day ... tossing scraps to the local wildlife from the back porch. Aren't they cute?

Day 5 of our story. Little Witch Willow knows that if you're gonna have a big day, you have start with a good breakfast. Please share these with your friends and other folks. We've got 5 days until the crowdfunding starts.

It was a fun night of improv cartooning last night. The encounter tables, dice, and especially awesome audience input gave me these randomly-generated prompts: Crawling Claw + Wish on a Star, Deathknight + Picnic, and Grell + U.S. Open.

Day 4 of LWW's Big Day ... Sometimes the right hat can make you feel like a superstar!

It's been a while since I did a "Damn it, Owen!" comic ... but @owenkcstephens.bsky.social's typo of the day just wouldn't be denied!

It's page 3 of Little Witch Willow's Big Day ... you gotta dress for success! Sign up at the pre-launch page (URL as noted in the image) so you'll be ready for the big day, too! LittleWitchWillow.com

Here's page 2 of Little Witch Willow's Big Day. I'll be honest, at this stage I was still taking it slow and trying to get handle on the characters and how I was going to produce the story I had in mind. Making one page per day allowed me to make a "lazy morning" of it.

Here's page 1 of Little Witch Willow's Big Day! It was originally part of Inktober 2020. Since I'm crowdfunding a print version, I'm re-releasing it in its original form—one page per day! Hope you'll come back each day to see what she gets up to. And join us on Backerkit to get your own copy.

I said Little Witch Willow would be returning, and it's time to start paying out on that! The crowdfunding won't start until Sept 10. But I'll begin posting the entirety of the book like I originally did ... a page per day all month. Look for daily posts here and on my Insta and FB feeds.

What were the improv cartoons from last night's Random Encounters livestream? Glad you asked! The prompts were Troglodyte + Busking, Displacer Beast + Marriage Proposal (thanks @michaeljpastor.bsky.social), and Queen + Cat Cafe.

I'm super proud of all my friends over at @montecookgames.com ... and it's always an honor and a joy when I get to do a little work with them. All the rest of the time, I get to be a big fan-goob ... and that's even MORE fun! youtu.be/ZphKWnXsvHU?...

Yeah ... that's my ork fighter. It was one of those sessions. #gamenightquotes #gamenightdoodle

I'm putting together a few new Little Witch Willow spot illos to help promote the new project. We'd all be really grateful if you'd check it out. LittleWitchWillow.com
