The relaunch of A Dollar Late and A Day Short was interrupted after about one month by extenuating circumstances in my personal life. Following a few weeks of recovery and the restoration of my routines, I am gradually returning to my work. I am currently in the process of completing comics I had already begun for the months of June and July. A Dollar Late and A Day Short will update as frequently as possible until it is caught up and returns to a normal schedule. Updates available by RSS, Twitter, or Facebook.
I have, understandably, fallen very short of my monthly goals almost every month this year as I have struggled to produce new comics. However, two consecutive months of virtually no income coupled with an avalanche of emergency expenses has completely wiped out my savings and left me with no more buffer to make up for shortfalls. I can no longer reliably cover my minimum operating expenses. Please click here to directly contribute any amount towards maintaining my comics and websites online for at least another year. This ensures my archives will be available to browse, if nothing else.
I am also increasingly in need of an equipment upgrade. My computer is more than five years old and beginning to exhibit the hardware issues that seem to always come with age, and it struggles with the incredibly large artwork files I now create regularly. The hand-me-down Wacom tablet I use to clean up and finish almost all of my artwork has frustrating problems with its stylus and pressure sensitivity, and the drawing surface is rough and warped. It was my intention to earmark funds over the first half of this year to replace these items myself, but that was ultimately not able to happen. If you would like to help me piecemeal upgrade my aging equipment, either directly by purchasing a component, or partially by gift certificate, you can do so through my Amazon wishlist.
I apologize for my inconsistency. This has been a relentlessly painful year.
