The Bigfoot Society Offshoot Threesome realllllly needs to work on their communication skills.

Sales are still going on to get your Bonnie merch! You can get t-shirts, mugs, prints, and more in my Society6 shop (like shower curtains?) today for 15% off and FREE shipping.

Also, it's the last call for Watercolor Commissions! Person + Person or Animal + Person or Animal + Animal. I'll be closing them after this week. BUT I do have some exciting new Bonnie prints I'll be debuting here soon with all proceeds being donated (if you follow me on Instagram you've already seen a few bits of them), so that's something fun to look forward to!

I'm always excited to see Herb's Fall Hat Wardrobe return.

SALES FOR SHOPS N' THINGS this weekend! You can get t-shirts, mugs, prints, and more in my Society6 shop (like shower curtains?) and this weekend get 20% off there!

So that monster of a giant gift-giving holiday is right around the corner, and next week I'll be putting up sales in my shop for those of you so inclined to shop from home! They call it e-Shopping, right? But I also wanted to let you know that I still have slots open for Watercolor Commissions! Person + Person or Animal + Person or Animal + Animal. I'll be closing those soon (so I actually have time to do them) so if you want one, act now!

*GASP* Slam's real name IS REVEALED! As many of you know, in derby people have their own individual Derby Names, which many of their friends within derby refer to them by. AND very seldom discover their real names, leading to a fun secret identity that only derby-ers know about. When people ask me if I know so-and-so because she used to skate for Charm City, the league I skated for, it's nearly impossible for me to remember unless they know their derby name. Fun Fact! Derby Mafia for life! 

Will we ever discover Bonnie and Mimi's real names??

P.S. I had a fantastic time at Thought Bubble and then a great time in Dublin. It was really hard coming back, but some of you have sent me kind words of love and hope and I really, really appreciate it. <3

A big huge shoutout to all of you lovely people I met at Thought Bubble this past weekend! Even losing my luggage and being in the same outfit for days and only having a portion of my books for the first day of the con didn't dampen my spirits! (more on that later, probably posted in comic form on my Patreon page!) Because all of you were so delightful to talk to and I love coming to that show. <3  SO NOW my friends and I are on a mini-comics retreat in the lovely Dublin, so here's a sketch of a happy version of What Slam's Family Could Look Like to tide you over till I'm back next week! (and if you want to keep up with my Dublin adventures, check out my Instagrams!)

Once again, this year I'm lucky to be going to THOUGHT BUBBLE! Shout-out to all my UK readers who will be there, you can find me at Table 80 in the Royal Armouries Hall! I'll have some Bonnie books with me so you can avoid those insane shipping fees and buy it directly from me and my jet-lagged face! Hope to see all of you there this weekend!

(Also, I'll be in Dublin for a bit after the show if anyone has any pubs they want to recommend! I'm a gluten-free weirdo who loves cider and wine. ;) )

WHAT HAPPENS when three out of four of the league captains fight? Nothing good!

Also, I think it's fiiiiinally time to start putting in cameos from my lovely Kickstarter backers! The lovely ladies on the ref team with Slam are none other than my dear friends Lauren & Suzanne! (also not the first time I've put Lauren in one of my comics before - check out the eaaarliest pages of Gods & Undergrads to get a glimpse of her there, too!)

Fran has the BEST conversations with herself in bathrooms.

Soooo, since the gift-giving season is almost upon us. I'm going to open up slots for watercolor couple portrait commissions from now until December 10th (in theory to give me enough time to have them done/shippable before the holidays). The portraits are of whatever couple combo you want -  human + human, animal + human, animal + animal! But just two creatures per portrait. 

Here's an example of what they'll look like - featuring me and my monster ginger kitty!

They'll all be original watercolors, 8" x 8" square, $65. I'm going to limit them to 30 slots for now, and I'll open more if I'm feeling confident I can get more done!

To get on the list, send me an email (lipstickisspress@gmail.com) with pictures/names of the couple you choose!

It's back to Fran's safe place!

Hey everyone, Inktober is still going strong! I'm a few days behind, but I don't care if that just drags out the fun even longer :P Make sure to follow along with me on my Instagram or my Patreon to see what I've done so far, and the #inktober tag to see what all the amazing artists of the world out there are doing!

I like The Rose Bucket because it sounds like the perfect dive bar - part strong smell, part collection of god knows what inside!

I'm back from NYCC! I have the delightful Con Crud or Con Plague or whatever the cool kids are calling it now ... Con Seasonal Allergies? That one sounds pretty lame. But I had a GREAT time and was so excited to meet familiar faces and greet new faces with my own face! I might be Con Delusional, so please excuse all the ramblings I'm putting here. Sorry for the lateness on this strip, but there'll be another Bonnie this week, just when you least expect it!

Hey everyone!! I'm back from NYCC but stilllll pretty zonked, so Bonnie will be up a wee bit later. In the meantime, if you want to check out some of the commissions I did, I put up most of them on the Instagrams. BIG THANKS to everyone who came by and visited me last week! It was a craaaazy fun hectic weekend, and I'm so glad I got to be there for it! More soon ... zzzzz ....

Cheryl's patience is wearing off in 5 ... 4 ... 3 ... 2 ...

For those of you who may not be aware, it's Bisexuality Awareness week! A time to celebrate all the magical people out there who, like Bonnie, don't necessarily stick to one gender preference or another. Many self-identified bisexuals feel invisible much of the time, so it's nice to take a moment to recognize and appreciate them. Hooray! Here's a flashback to back when Bonnie first came out to Stuart, and in the strip!

Hey y'allllll I'm back from SPX! It was a super fun time, and I got to see all my favorite comics creators and attendee faces and greet some new ones! I'll be posting my new book and my newest prints online in my store soon, and will throw up (uh, will post) a link here when they're available! Thanks to everyone who came out to say hello! And NEW YORK COMIC CON I'M COMING FOR YOU NEXT MONTH!
