So… I’m Canadian and here in my large yet under populated country Thanksgiving is the second weekend of October, with our big dinners happening on either Sunday or Monday. If I were a true comicking loner it wouldn’t be a problem, but I have a HUGE family. Of course, my parents are also divorced so I have to have two holidays of everything or risk hurting their feelings. Therefore, the regular Tuesday update for next week will change to Thursday! Autumn is always that weird season where there’s a number of holidays messing up my schedule, but the last scheduled break for this year is in December, during Christmas/New Years.

Happy Holidays!

I promised to only miss the Tuesday deadline for Even in Arcadia during planned vacations or extenuating circumstances. Well, unfortunately extenuated circumstances have presented themselves.

I have a viral eye infection. It makes it pretty painful to look at anything, particularly a screen, for any length of time. As such, the next page is nowhere near done. I anticipate that my illness won’t last long (the kind doctors have provided me with some medical relief), but it will put a delay on the page. I would like to say I will have it up on Thursday, but it might be as late as Friday or Saturday if my eyes still hurt. Then we can get back to our regular schedule!

Thank you so much for your patience guys! I’m normally a very healthy person, so getting sick is a very trying ordeal… Plus the separation from my sweet sweet drawing addiction.

Every month there will be a new wallpaper to download for your computer and/or cellphone

When I was a young and impressionable teenage girl I had a small seed of a dream. I wanted to make webcomics like the ones that I enjoyed reading during the lazy hours of IT class while trying to avoid the mind numbingly boring information on network architecture. I would read Megatokyo and be amazed that people would come back to the site a few times a week to read the pages as they updated. Then, as I have been prone to do, I told myself it was perfectly possible for me to do that too and even be successful at it.

Thus began my long and sometimes difficult journey into the world of comics that has led me here. I love Even in Arcadia. I love drawing, writing, sketching, promoting, doing all the boring bureaucratic paperwork for this comic. To be honest, I want to do more of it, more often. (continue reading…)
