“That’s Two Creeps In A Row!” 

This is the OFFICIAL first comic for this page (though I will re-draw the roughs I posted here earlier).  This is a story about an incident that happened to me a couple weeks back.  Truth be told, it didn’t bother me til I already started sketching, so I turned it into a two-pager, and it’s still not everything I wanted to depict.  

[ifwitzines]

I'm reblogging all the comics I've put up here, because they were buried at the bottom of my huge pile of zine posts.

These comics are part of I Forgot Why I Thought This Would Be Fun zines (the OG of my zines! Where they all started before I started making sketch zines).

There are 3 issues. I'm working on issue 4 now!

[ifwitzines]

“Someone Else’s Baby” (special thanks to @sarahscribblesillustration for making me always personify my belligerent uterus) How I spent my Saturday (I was not actually that miserable-looking. I had a really great time, considering. Thanks, painkillers)

[ifwitzines]

Super special in-colour version!  Starring @wornoldhat (@freshsqueezedhuman) and Alfie P. Chatsworth!

24-hour Comic Day comic from 2015 (”But Fawn, this is only 12 hours!  This comic is full of lies!” you say?  Yes, well, to see the rest of my evening, refer to 12:30pm and cease marveling on why I didn’t draw it)

[ifwitzines]

Very old IFWIT comic.

The last issue of IFWIT Forgetful Funsters. Issue 5: In the Garden. I don't have my ifwit notebook on me right now, or I would tag everyone involved, but we had some amazing talent this round, and I'm so glad to have gotten to work with them <3

Forgetful Funsters may come back someday, but til then, I'll see you at the conventions!

[ifwitzines]

ALL THE ZINES (digitally)! including the 3 premieres, PLUS FOUR MORE not found in any other bundle! These extras include 3 that I have distribution rights to & one zine I retired long ago! Since this pack is digital, it doesn't have the same freebies as the other bundles, but it has its own extras, and SUPER discounted.

Get ready for 1.31 gigawatts (I mean bytes) of content!

IMPORTANT: I can't upload this file to Broken Pencil's server without breaking it twice, so you'll get the instructions on how to get them from my site.

These 3 zines are a collaborative project between IFWIT and a bunch of contributors. So far, our themes have been "Tea Time," "Zodiac/Constellation", and "Spooky!" If you wanna join too, hit the link to the tumblr page for info! Each bundle comes with a whole bunch of freebies! Freebies include: 5 pinback buttons, 2 stickers, 1 BUTTS bookmark, and a random zine or mini-notebook!

Each of the 5 zines in this bundle have their own themes. "Faces" is portraits, "Drawing from Life" is, you guessed it! Tips and insights on drawing from life. "Inktober Project" is full of MerMay drawings (NO WAIT, Inktober stuff). And then there are two year's end zines, wrapping up my year and looking forward (weird to compare what I thought 2020 would be like vs how 2020 actually turned out.

Each bundle comes with a whole bunch of freebies! Freebies include: 5 pinback buttons, 2 stickers, 1 BUTTS bookmark, and a random zine or mini-notebook!

Greetings, Forgetful Funsters!  

I’ll be appearing at Virtual Canzine 2021 as part of TCAF this year!  I’ll be offering 6 bundles.  Since I tend to put tumblr last, I’ve decided you’re getting exclusive first-preview rights to check out my wares!   In order that they appear here, we have: 

IFWIT originals (2-3 comics per issue)

IFWIT Sketch & Story (sketchbooks and snippets of stories and ideas, compiled of every sketch I can find, old and new)

IFWIT Presents (themed art and personal zines)

IFWIT Forgetful Funsters (collaborative zine)

IFWIT Minis (these are free on my website, but the incentive to buy is 1: they are cheap, 2: they are already printed/cut/assembled, 3: there will be at least two additional minis that will be exclusive to this bundle until September, and 4: they come with the incentive packet)

IFWIT DIGITAL MOTHERLOAD (digital bundle of ALL my zines, including 4 zines I have distro rights to, which are not found in the other bundles, and one of them is a zine of my own that I retired 2 years ago)

All bundles, except the digital motherload, come with extra swag as an incentive: 

5 pinback buttons: 2 zine buttons, 1 butts button, and a couple random ones.

2 random stickers

1 butts bookmark

and a random zine or mini notebook

Nearly all of my zines can be bought individually (in physical and digital format) at my shop.  As well as many of the buttons and stickers (there are also more buttons/stickers and art prints).

Oh Hello Again!

Thank you for all the recent love on that one post!  I promised to come over here more often, and I didn’t (but for real - I shall, I shall be better).  

I’m gathering some images for an upcoming virtual festival and when I’m done creating the ads and stuff for it, I’ll 100% post it (on instagram, and then) here first!  

My instagram is ifwit_zines - I swear, I only use that more because having Facebook and Tumblr on my phone is a big pain.  But I’m getting better.

[ifwitzines]

While I’m at it, HI THERE!!  I’m in a long process of trying to make this the most organized Forgetful Funsters zine yet.  Migraines don’t help me stay on top of things, but I’m only a day late posting this.  

The theme for the next zine has been decided, and it is "RAINY DAYS" - free to interpret any way you see fit, through any artistic avenue you see fit - art, writing, photos, lists, how-to, comics, doodles, songs... you name it.

If you'd like to submit anything, you can send stuff to [email protected] by May 20th.  I'll accept pretty much anything, so long as it's original, related to the theme, and relatively sfw (safe for work).  

Be sure to include with your submission: -The name you want in the credits -A title for your piece/pieces, if you want -Your site/socials (include as many as you’d like but choose only one to be in the credits - others are for tagging purposes across the internet) -Your discord name, if you’re on the FF discord (just for my reference) -Your favourite rainy day activity

For specifications on submitting, here are a few useful links that are also in my previous post!
