Well over these past 70+ days of Lockdown I have been busy scribbling away and preparing a revival of my own...
YES! I'm really pleased to announce that PAWS FOR THAWT is BACK!!!
And is featured in this issue of SPLANK!!
Paws for Thawt was the anthropomorphic semi-autobiographical webcomic, where I cast myself, friends and family as animals, in a series of one page strips re-counting funny moments and relatable experiences I'd encountered.
Unfortunately that hiatus was longer than I ever intended due to a variety of different reasons. Despite not actually putting pencil to paper during this break, I was always noting down funny moments ever with the intention of picking Paws for Thawt up again!
I started posting one strip every week back in in June 2017 (feels like an age ago!) and for a while maintained regular posting of a strip a week alongside illustrating issues 4 and 5 of MULP, as well as working part-time. But in April 2018 I had to put Paws for Thawt on a hiatus and make work on MULP my priority while I finished the final issue.
After being put on Furlough from my part-time job, I made a decision to make the most of this time and pick up where I left off!
So when Peter asked me to contribute some material to SPLANK! I leapt at the opportunity to not only support his great effort in promoting indie comic creators and show my appreciation for the NHS and Keyworkers' efforts during this time, but to also aid in the re-launch of my lil comic!!
Paws for Thawt will be live again as of the 2nd June, and will be posting regularly again every Tuesday for as long as I can keep churning out strips! But in the mean time, check out SPLANK! to see the featured strips, two of which are completely new!
