Questions and the answers who love them

Wednesday, November 9th, 2011

I know, I know. I am almost unforgivably behind on answering my email. And I've gotten so many good questions lately! Here are a few that might answer some of yours, too:

how do you create your pictures? do you own a shop with employees who frame your pics and mail them out? -SW

I draw my pictures and upload them to ImageKind, and ImageKind takes care of order production and fulfillment for those of you ordering prints. No employees here!

I've bought your book the moment it was released: awesome and thanks for writing that story. The book itself lived up to my expectations, regarding the "previews" released by you on YouTube. I have a question: on your website you have two graphics about Gracie: Gracie's Fall and Gracie Gets Back Up. The accompanying texts made me hungry for more. Is there a complete story coming up sometime or do you leave it at that? The latter would be a pity although my imagination carries me towards a nice story too. But that could never be something that you would create. And that's what interests me.  -EA

I have always wanted to do a longer story for Gracie but haven't gotten around to it yet. So, let's just say that I have no immediate plans, but she's on my mind. Glad you liked the book! :) (more...)

Firefox themes! Book updates! Other stuff!

Thursday, September 16th, 2010

Hooray! My first three Firefox Personas have been approved, and you can install your choice of Ida, Elsie or Shawnee themes here. There will be more in the next few days. (Their approval process takes a while.)

Firefox themes and personas

And an update on Skary Childrin and the Carousel of Sorrow - I've finished the text! Now I'm getting serious about the illustrations, so you may have to wait a little longer for other projects of mine. Not to worry, however. The annual 31 Days of Halloween project will still begin on the 1st. You didn't really think I'd forget Halloween, did you (see last year's)? Blasphemy! I'll find time to update the fan art gallery in there somewhere too. I have some really great ones I can't wait to post.

Now to answer some questions I've gotten recently - haven't done that in a while, have I? (more...)

Frequently Asked Questions Answered

Tuesday, March 2nd, 2010

I get a lot of email from you all (which I love!), and there are a few questions I get more than others. Once upon a time I had an FAQ page, but I think it fell down the rabbit hole. I couldn't tell you what happened to it, but I imagine it's probably having tea with a festively bewigged Johnny Depp or something. So, here's a new one! (more...)

Font "LHF Billhead 1890" was not found.Downloads and Photos

Did you see? Well, did you? There's a new Downloads page! At the moment, it simply has a few Twitter backgrounds for your use, but there will be more downloads in the near future. As far as those Twitter backgrounds go, I've included the most requested characters for now. Are there any others you'd like to see?

In other news, the first place winner of Casilda's Hat Contest has received her hat. And look! She's taken pictures!

I think it works for her, don't you? Rena is also a model for House of Pomegranates, which I encourage everyone to check out.

In case you thought I'd forgotten, I'm still working on an animated short, and as soon as I can figure out how, there will be close captioning of some sort on the YouTube videos for the hard of hearing. I'm also putting that collage together. I've received a lot of wonderful photos, but I can definitely use more. Have you seen anything that reminded you of Skary? Send photos! There's no deadline, and the collage will be updated as long as I continue to receive pictures.

Okay, all right and what-have-you. That's the news. How about a few emails, eh? (more...)

SKARYVILLE TRUTH

Sunday, June 28th, 2009

Casilda's Hat Contest has drawn to a close at last. The entries have been sent to the judges who are busy reading each every one and picking their favorites as I speak (well, maybe not right this very second. They could very well be taking a shower or peeling onions or something). Results should (hopefully!) be posted some time within the next couple of weeks. I won't give you any hints as to who's ahead so far, but I can honestly say that they were all just wonderful and wonderfully creepy to boot! It's obvious that a lot of work went into these. Good work, all of you! This decision will not be easy.

Oh, and look at this! Kim in OK has sent a photo of her Emmeline tattoo, which was done by Brooke Cooke in Conway, AR:

From Kim (age 29), Oklahoma

She plans to add the Neighbor Boy soon. I can't wait to see it!

At this rate, I wonder if I'll ever catch up on my inbox, but I suppose I have time to answer one question:

Hey! I love ur videos, yet the creepy part about them is the lingering question, What if that really did happen? Or already did? -C (more...)

Happy Sunday evening, everybody. I hope you're sitting at your desk with a cup of black tea, your computer, and some Billie Holiday. But if you're not, that's all right. I'll carry the responsibility this time. (But next time....)

As you know, I recently relaunched skary.net! There's new art on the way, a very short animation in the works, and I'm in the middle of a couple of writing projects as well. That doesn't mean I've neglected my inbox, of course. Without further delay, here are a few of the questions I've gotten over the past week: (more...)
