Sorry that I am a day late on this comic. I did Pokemon Go Community Day yesterday and I walked almost 15,000 steps. I was physically and mentally exhausted.

This is not the comic that I originally wanted to craft. I am trying to return to Kat's story, at least for a bit, but I was thinking about Lilah's story still and this detour in her story to process my own grief from last year sidelined the story I'd been telling, and I completely forgot about the Mormons. On a note, this story was conceived in 2015 and this particular character has been a bit stalkery. When I came up with it in my head, I was influenced by stories that I grew up with where this sort of thing might have seemed cute, but this is now 2023, and it may not have aged well. I will try to continue it with that sensitivity in mind. I am not trying to offend anyone, although in this day and age, you're always going to offend someone.

Both my domain name and my hosting are up for renewal at the end of the year, and the hosting will be quite pricey. I have a plan in place to save up enough money over the year that *should* be enough to pay for it, but if you do want to help me, there are several ways you can. First, I do still have some designs up in my store on Cafepress. Just click the Store on the top menu of this page and it will take you there. I have a number of pretty cool designs up there that you can get on T-shirts and other things. Secondly, I am on Patreon, a site for artists to get donations from their fans to help support their work, generally in exchange for incentives. I offer several incentives on my page.

For $5/month, I will hand draw a holiday card for you for every holiday you choose. They can be personalized to you or for whomever you would like, or left blank for you to personalize yourself for anyone you choose to gift it to.

For $15/month, I will immortalize you in my comic. I will create an illustration of you and include you as a character in my comic. In addition I will send you a full color drawing of your comic character.

For $25/month, I will send you one of the original copies of one of my comics. You can choose which comic you would like out of any still in inventory. Currently, you can choose any comic you'd like, as I still have a full inventory.

And finally, for $50 a month, I will begin a new webcomic, adult and BDSM themed, that will be exclusively for fans who support me on Patreon. I will create 1 comic a month for each $50 pledge (up to one for every day of the month), and you will receieve the original copy of the comic you paid for (only for the first 28-31 supporters). If money is tight, I also have a $1 pledge on my Patreon page that doesn't offer any perks, except for an eventual complete collection of my comics on site, email notification whenever I post a new comic (if I remember to announce it on my Patreon), and maybe some other things I might post on my Patreon page for patrons only. I am planning on doing an overhaul on my Patreon tiers at some point soon, and I will let you know here when I do.

If you just don't have the money to help support my work, you can help in other ways. I don't have much money for advertising, so I rely on word of mouth to gain more readers. Share my comics on Facebook, Twitter, and other social networking sites. Vote for my comic on topwebcomics.com (I know the picture for the link to that is busted. I've tried to figure out why, and have gotten no response from Top Web Comics on how to fix it, but the link still works.) Tell your friends about me and give them my web page information. The more readers I have, the more support I can likely receive. Thank you so much in advance! I love all my readers.

Please vote for me on topwebcomics.com. If you love this comic as much as I do, please take the time and help support my comic by helping more people find it. It's quick and easy to vote, and you can do it once every 24 hours. After playing around with the voting myself, I've discovered that you can only vote once per location, not device.
