The rest of the shop is Print-On-Demand and handled by Fourthwall, so nothing else is affected by this. Just the comica and the acrylic charm I was producing and selling from my own place.

I specifically took them off Amazon KDP because books were consistently being delivered with quality issues. I'm not sure where else to go with them, as my audience is too small for a publisher to show interest, and I'm wary of selling my rights.

With new EU regulations requiring small businesses to doxx themselves, I can no longer offer the physical copies of my comic books for sale online. I sell these out of my home, I'd rather not have my address public. Digital copies will still be available on the Fourthwall and Patreon shops.

My stance on this matter hasn't changed.

A new 5-page episode of our all-new webcomic, "Swift Spark: The Adventures Continue" is up now on Patreon! #SwiftSpark #IndieAnimation #Indiecomics www.patreon.com/posts/117149...

You've seen mine. Now if you had to pitch Swift Spark, what would YOU say?

"Swift Spark: The Adventures Continue" Issue 3 will have 90 pages!

Everything @adamrowevo.bsky.social said!!

If every creative professional in my network can please humor me for one post, I want to shout someone out! Peter Houtman @pan-tastique.bsky.social is the creator of the indie animated series @swiftspark.bsky.social, the tale of a teen hero seeking his missing father. youtu.be/b8CXxxY97BQ?...

It’s #IndieAnimation Day! I’ve had the opportunity to compose music for some amazing animation projects, and I’m excited to showcase a few of them. Check them out in the links below!

I've decided to be less uptight about "spoilers", including not announcing new castmembers bc "it's too far from release". SO: @adamrowevo.bsky.social is playing Geoffrey Wankum in the next episode! You'll hear his voice early next year when the storyboards release! #SwiftSpark #IndieAnimation

I'll be honest, I'm a little disappointed that someone leaked this previously Patreon-exclusive poster by uploading it to IMDB. ^^" But here's the poster I made for our first official music video, "Swift Spark's The Name!" #SwiftSpark #IndieAnimation

Swift Spark: The Adventures Continue! Swift Spark may be years away from getting another animated release, but that doesn't mean we can't tell our stories any other way! Every week, Patrons get to read 5 pages of our REBOOTED webcomic, releasing publicly January 2025! #SwiftSpark #IndieAnimation

This is the first #IndieAnimationDay where we don't really have anything exciting to show. But things are being worked on in the background. #SwiftSpark #IndieAnimation

Four roles/projects that I am proud of 🤘 - Daniel Collins in Swift Spark & the Defense Five (@swiftspark.bsky.social) - Herald in Shadows Over Silesia - Gregory in Who the **** Killed My Sister - Breadbasket in Fat Chance: The Movie #vo #voiceover #videogames #audiodrama #animation

Do I think Swift Spark has failed? No. I wanted to tell a story and inspire people - to make a pilot and prove to myself that I could. Even without a successful crowdfunding campaign. I made a pilot at 22. I got to pitch at several studios. One studio seemed interested... I still achieved so much.

Making a difficult decision - Swift Spark is going back to comics. What does that mean? And what about the episodes we're currently recording? Screenshotted the most important parts Read the full blog post for free here: www.patreon.com/posts/thing-... #IndieAnimation #SwiftSpark

Fighting so hard to keep myself from titling THAT episode "Not What He Seems"...
