Those of you who contributed to the reboot of Bloomin’ Faeries! will appreciate this bit of news: I finally got the money.

Obviously, I was able to restart BF without these funds, but they couldn’t have come at a better time. The last few years have been more challenging than usual financially, and I’ve been in an unusual struggle to make ends meet. I haven’t needed money this badly in well over a decade, and it was enough to motivate to make one last push to get the money from Indiegogo.

And to be clear, none of it is IG’s fault. They held on to the money until I was able to provide the correct banking info for an international wire transfer. It’s just that getting that info was always complicated. I’d call my bank, get the info, hung up, and tried entering it. There was always a problem, some bit of data that didn’t fit what they needed. This time, I filled in the details with my bank rep on the phone, and when it didn’t work, we worked it out right away.

So long story short, a huge thank you to everyone who contributed to the campaign. Know that your efforts are a big help in my life right now.

Hey everyone,

After a few initial hiccups, my shop is now working, and I can start selling stuff you might like. For starters, the complete Bloomin’ Faeries! archive (from the first Sir Thane story by RR Pennell to #409, before the hiatus) is now available.

Hope you guys enjoy it.

Not long ago, I activated part of the Patreon plugin that allowed posts from Patreon to be created here on the site as well. I thought it might provide an interesting extra for people who visited the site, but in hindsight, I think it’s mostly spammy. In addition, the plugin didn’t work very well–I always had to trigger the transfer manually, which was tedious and made the plugin kind of useless.

So I decided to remove all this this morning, and that’s that. It didn’t seem like it was particularly useful to anyone, so I doubt it’ll be missed.

Hi,

I’m thinking of making the backlog available in the brand new store I’m building, but I’m not sure what to price it. This would include all 409 comics that were given as a reward for the Archivist perk of my Indiegogo campaign 18 months ago.

What do you feel a fair price for all this Bloomin’ Goodness! should be? Write your suggestions in the comment section below.

Thanks,

Hi,

This is probably a creepy question, and I suppose it’s one that’s going to sound pretty dumb to 50% of the population, but seeing as I’m in the process of writing a story featuring a female character, I gotta ask.

This question is largely directed at the few women who took a wrong turn on the internet and ended up as part of the audience (and trust me, we’re glad to have you, it’s just I can’t wrap my brain around why you’d like it here). If there are men who can shed some insight or know sites that do, however, feel free to chime in.

Okay, here we go. Ready?

How does it feel to you when you get horny? What are the physical reactions you experience, from mild arousal to mind-numbing, gotta-fuck-right-now super-lust?

If it can help, I can embed some visual references into this post, and you can describe to me what you think she’s experiencing fo each image.

Like (I suppose) many of my gender, I feel I should know this as an adult, but I don’t seem to run into any man who’s actually had the candid conversation with women. And it’s not something I talk about with other men. As guys, we punch each other on the arm, in the face, or in the balls, or we talk about how we “destroyed” this or that chick with our amazing penises (he says, tongue FIRMLY in cheek). But we don’t talk to women about the erotic sensations that come with being a woman.

I’m hoping this can be a civil, educational, and entertaining conversation. I certainly hope someone’s going to chime in (male or female) and not let me feel like a clueless idiot. 😀

Hi everyone,

I had originally intended this to be an Easter commission, but with COVID-19 causing the mischief it does, I decided to go for something slightly different. Also, we’re celebrating TODAY the TENTH ANNIVERSARY of Bloomin’ Faeries!, so I thought I could splurge and have a two-character commissions instead of a regular pinup.

I hope you’re all staying safe and healthy. If you’re feeling a little sick, though, don’t hesitate to call Nurse Patience. 😉

Starting tomorrow is a very special crossover event with Exiern which has been in the works for several weeks: characters from both Exiern and Bloomin’ Faeries! finally get to meet!

Illustrated by Wondollar himself, these ongoing strips (presented in the traditional Bloomin’ Faeries! format) will be going up on both the Bloomin’ Faeries Patreon and the Exiern Patreon starting tomorrow, Friday, November 8, and then one new strip every other until completion.

On both BF and Exiern, it will be available as a reward for one-dollar tier and above ($1 for Wondollar! Sorry, we couldn’t resist it!) The good news is that this is a freebie and you won’t be charged for it.

For those not on Patreon, these strips will be published on Fridays one week later at both the Exiern site and here on Bloomin’ Faeries!. Watch both sites for future updates!

Please check out the Exiern Patreon. Please keep in mind there is adult material at these links and hence potentially NSFW!

Please consider helping to support Scott and Shan so that he can make more Exiern pages! These guys are doing great work and we want Exiern to keep on rocking!

Just so you know, this isn’t the first time Exiern produces some great BF-inspired strips. For the lead in and what happened before this crossover:

Saying goodbye to a webcomic which had been very good to us and seemed to be gone forever …

…but then it came back a few weeks later! We were very surprised but also very glad. 

Reintroducing a key character to the audience.

Where the previous year’s decisions lead to.

Thanks to Shan, Scott and Wondollar for helping make this happen! We hope you enjoy this as much as we did making it!

It’s been a quiet few months, eh?

Let me start with an apology. I’m sorry that I’ve been silent for these past few months. I left my day job last summer in the hope of becoming a full-time writer, and by February, I came to the conclusion that it just wasn’t going to happen. March and April were largely spent wallowing in shameful misery, then a quest for new employment. This quest is completed now and I’m in the process of relocating myself and the faeries to my original hometown of Montreal.

What happened to the Indiegogo campaign?

The bad news is that the money never came through. Indiegogo’s customer service never responded to my queries, so I waited in vain for some kind of explanation.

The good news is that I fulfilled the rewards for those that purchased them, and will be producing the next three comics out of my own pocket. The first one (#410) is already or, and I’ll be working with Wondollar on producing the next two at a rate of one a month.

What about the Patreon campaign?

I had a target of $500 per comic before resuming a weekly schedule. We’re at half of that at the moment, but I’m thinking of starting production on a monthly basis for now, and increase the frequency as the contributions go up. Perhaps having strips out on a regular basis will help build momentum. With #411 and #412 already covered by the Indiegogo campaign, this would mean the first Patreon-sponsored strip would come out on September 1 of this year.

So that’s the latest news. Hope you’re not all too upset with me.

But if you are, please remember to blame the faeries.

This isn’t where I normally do these reviews, but as I’m collating all the stuff for those who purchased the Archivist perk in the IndieGoGo campaign, I ran across this piece of art I commissioned over FOUR YEARS AGO.

I was always a HUGE fan of Gunnm and read the manga when it came out decades ago. I went to see the movie with some fairly high expectations and, at the same time, I was ready to be heavily disappointed. It turns out I love this movie as much as I loved Wonder Woman (a LOT!). I think they did a phenomenal job showing their love for the source material (always a critical point for me when they’re doing an adaptation of existing books/comics) and showed Alita to be a fierce warrior as much as a caring person. In some ways, I think I love the movie even more than I loved the manga—and that’s saying something. I’ve already seen the movie twice in theaters and encourage you all to do the same.
