If you've checked the chapter list recently you probably noticed I've been making some changes. Here's an update about that.
I finally had a chance to sit down with Clem, my life partner and indispensible story editor for Familiar, and read through chapters 07 and the script for 08 with her. Based on her feedback and a few days of story breaking, I've decided to make some revisions to the story and chapter order.
This includes taki...

Trying to get my life back together LMAO. Here's a full body sketch of Wild Rose, a.k.a. Rosemary Wilder. She appears in Chapter 08, but she already had a cameo in an earlier chapter. Did you catch it?

🔮 Hello!
In December, 2019, 20 of you joined us - hello and thank you! Be sure to take a look back through the posts; it's not all passwords. There's some sketchy erotica too.
Also, if you are new and haven't already: If you would like to be credited with a name other than the one associated with your Patreon account,

It's time. It's happening. It's Chapter 05!
This is the last chapter that I had completed before I launched Patreon. The Patrons listed on the credits page are some of the OG supporters, and I just wanted to give them a shout out here, too: THANK YOU for sneakily finding my Patreon and subscribing before I was even offering perks. You rock, and this chapter was made possible by YOU.

Whenever I draw a character design for the first time I usually hate it. So here's a mysterious pic that I drew to warm up for Chapter 08 (FIREBIRD). I'm not totally happy with it, but oooh, ahhhh, mysterious!

Behind the scenes hours on Patreon.
I use Room Sketcher for the backgrounds/environment that takes place in Diana's apartment, since more than 50% of the comic takes place there. For consistency, I built it in Room Sketcher. Then I take screenshots and trace them for most of the backgrounds (I do freehand some of them)
For funsies I thought I'd share the layout of her apartment. So... here it is!

December. We made it! Time for the monthly newsletter. This one'll be shorter than last month since less has changed. I think that's a good thing since it means what changed is working (I hope).

I mentioned earlier that I finished the thumbnails for this one. Hooray! The chapter will be 25 or 26 pages long. I'm actually looking into combining a couple pages if I can, and then w...

Right on schedule. 26 pages.
This one is actually the smuttiest chapter so far. (LOL you can tell from the filenames where I inserted pages or combined them.)
The December poll for this chapter will be to determine the final page, which will be a 1-panel wall to wall. Look for it around the 15th of December.
As always, thanks for your support!

Just another big THANK YOU from this content creator.
I wasn't sure how Patreon and Familiar and all this was going to pan out. I am humbled by your support and look forward to working hard to make this silly sex comic the best silly sex comic I can. The dollars help immensely but more than that, the vote of confidence is what boosts me forward.
So anyway here's a little Patrons-only content for gratitude & luck. Th...

Happy Monday. Just some early cover concept sketches. #03 later became the teaser image of Jack with all the toys (posted also for posterity). May revive them for future covers. In particular I like the top left of Diana with the pussy bow.

To welcome new Patrons and follow through with my initiative of posting more behind the scenes stuff, here's a look at the original page 01 test that I did for Chapter 00 over a full year ago. Stylistically I'm sure you can see some aspects that I kept and others that I changed. Innnnteresting!

Time for my first formal Patreon newsletter. I'm going to be doing this monthly to give everyone an overview of what's going on in my world. Start looking forward to it around the first of the month.

I'd like to start posting more WIP/sketches here! Final work will still be free and on Twitter, but I want to add value to this Patreon and I feel like sharing exclusive sneak peeks and sketches like this one is a good way to do it.
So for now here's this -- and look forward to more like it starting in November for Advanced Access and Influencer tiers.

I want to share more in-progress stuff. WIPs, sketches, in-prog panels, snippets, character trivia, etc. But with Patrons only. How would you prefer to see/get this kind of content?
I know a lot of people post it to Patreon, but how many people actually use Patreon to view that kind of content?
I can't promise I'll do any of these options but I wanted your feedback. If there's another method, please comment and let me know.

Hello!
The time has come: Chapter 04 is ready for advanced access reading.
Please feel free to discuss the chapter online - but refrain from posting screenshots until the public launch date on October 31... which also happens to be Jack's birthday. Hmm!

I know y'all already had access but. Familiar is now live to the public. Please share with your friends and .. I guess family if that's not totally weird. Please do not share it with your enemies. They don't deserve it.
For real though, I am overwhelmed with gratitude for your support here on Patreon. Thanks so much for being part of this from the very beginning - can't wait to see where it goes.
U THE BEST!!!!

But I will be opening the site to patrons almost a full month early. My goal is to have Chapter 00 and the site ready for you all to read by August 31 as thanks for being ...
