Hey everyone! I'm going to make a commitment to be more active on DA this year. Which means leaving more comments everywheerree. I mean I love all you here. I really do. I started here so many years ago and it was this community of artists and art appreciators that helped my cast family and stories grow to where they are today. I mean some of you I can still recall all your usernames and the conversations we've spawned . Like Shinerai will forever be the designer of Callith the dragon, and Ehme helped spawn Zy the Watermelon head and Xie the murderer and all the other nicknames for these characters. kiyoshiwithpen was the namesake of Zy's pet dragon. mangakasusumiya1 named Kawaii Star-chan. And bouncymischa I think it was you who wanted to give Diiefvs videogames? Well he seems to be very much a gamer now lol. The comments I get here on DeviantART feel like an extension of the cast family. So to me you guys are family and that's never gonna change. LOVE YOU ALL!

Where the f*** is Achiru?!?
Hey DeviantART.
I'm sorry but I'm breaking up with you. It's been a very tough decision for me because I still think very fondly of you and all the experiences we've had together.
I remember the first time I met you. I had followed another artist I admired to this community from an oekaki paint chat board in 2004. I began sharing my original ideas and built a community here. I made lots of friends. I ran a webcomic for several years until I almost killed myself doing it. I had to detach myself from you, from my work and my old identity. I am more than an artist. I am an inspiration.
I tried to keep in touch with you but it's too much. I c
Hey I Just Met You
Hey everyone! Man it's already April~
So lots of stuff happened last month. The book sale ended and I had an art show and sold one painting. In the meantime I'm getting ready launch yet another book starring Mann and Lucky! It is titled "The House Party" and it's 255 pages long.... WHEW THAT WAS SO MUCH WORK.
If you aren't following me on Instagram or on Patreon, that's where all the story snippets have been.
I'm now going to update "Hey I Just Met You" to DeviantART on Mondays and Fridays for this month to get you caught up on their first meeting. Then I will be offering snippets of The House Party in May.
2017 February Reflection
So this past month I've finished fulfilling ALL PREORDERS ON KICKSTARTER which was a giant undertaking:
In the meantime I've gotten my graphic novel into two local independent bookstores and two local comic book shops:
Because I don't have a large publishing company behind me to do a large share of the marketing, independent stores are wary of stocking books that of course, might not sell. So they will generally consign or buy only one or two books and if they sell out, they will be confident in stocking more. I'm glad that I have a strong network to help me sell out those one or two books really fast!

GUESS WHAT UNSPOKEN/RAVEN IS COMING BACK!!!
Hi for the new peeps I'm Achiru and I basically record the conversations that occur in my head between a crazy cast of characters which I like to share with you.
So a new development happened in the studio that was just ask shocking as March 2008 when Xei announced he was getting married to Vera (Valken was probably the only one who saw it coming). And maaaybe just as shocking as when Xie and Xandre hooked up. And that Diiefvs got a haircut (to Xei's horror).
I now give you the storyline which pretty much takes off right after where RAVEN (now UNSPOKEN) went on hiatus at the end of Act 3, Scene 3:

Happy belated new year to you too! Aw man those were good times. I think I was dumb and obstinate, but good times nonetheless `_` So glad you are still here though ♥ Hope you are doing well!
Speaking of Callith, would it be okay if I made a new reference for him? You know how I am...
