On this day, ten years ago, I published the very first Horrortale art piece ever. It sparked a creative journey that lasted for over a decade, something I'd never even imagined. Now, after so many months of waiting, I'm happy to say the comic has reached a stopping point and is ready for all to read here (click here). Thank you for your patience.
I really appreciate every single one of you who's supported the comics' (and my own) success throughout these years. You all convinced me so earnestly that the fandom was not over when I had mistakenly announced that it was. Thank you all for such an outpour of love and encouragement for my work and for myself, no matter what else was happening within this fandom, no matter what else was being said. A shout-out especially to those who recognize the legitimacy behind every single piece I have ever created, and of course, I thank my financial supporters, for preventing the death of this comic for a long, long time.
But I understand retaliation. Though I'm free to draw whatever I wish within the bounds of the law, some of my work is still rightfully unwelcome and understandably shocking to anyone outside its intended audience. I apologize to those who feel such offense; it is wildly unfair having such material come your way without warning. But personal headcanon is neither official nor universal, and I have nothing more to say to those who respond with baseless accusations, obstinate misimpressions, or forced conflation between separate works of fiction.
Many fellow artists have reached out to me sharing their own experiences of facing brutal shaming over their own legitimate work. Your stories truly pain me, and there is nothing I can do to protect you, and there is nothing I can do to stop it. I can only tell you this.
No matter who you are, no matter what you do, and no matter whom you love, I welcome you. Keep it lawful, keep it consensual, keep it non-hateful, and I will be a safe space. Full stop.
Though truly, I believe you are your most important safe space.
Never stop creating. And thank you for reading Horrortale. Every single reader, both current and former, had a vital role to play in its completion.
