Recently a very cool person sent me a bunch of questions as a sort of interview for a school project, and it occurred to me that I get asked these questions a lot so I’m throwing them down under the readmore for you guys in case you wanted to know this stuff/so if someone asks me one of these in the future I can just link here. So yeah lots of talky talk under the whatcjamacallit
morning reblog- there’s still plenty of copies available!
evening reploob ‘cause holy smokes only 19 copies to go! also due to the chaos of going to a pal’s wedding and then France after that it’s going to be a long time until I can put more on sale, so if you want one inside of this season that’s probably an incentive ahahahhahhHAHhAHAsorryeverythingisbusy

Anonymous asked: you can just ship ship to the countries in that list? its because i live in brazil and really wanted a copy :,D
ah! another new country- I have had requests to add New Zealand as well, so yeah if you live in a country which isn’t on the Etsy mailing list I have atm, please tell me and I can ask the ladies at the post office how much it costs to ship one of my books to your region, and then I can add it for next time!
i’ll just make it a personal rule at this point, to attempt pulling myself out of art blocks by drawing girls in dresses surrounded by spiderwebs
high stress situation = hey let’s invent an adorable character whos only purpose is to fortell the end of all things and he tends to bleed when he’s doing that so nobody wants to talk to him
yeah that seems rational
oh
okay so I may have deduced one of the problems with finding a publisher because oh god I did not think at all about lyrics being copyrighted
also when I wrote this comic I never intended to publish it and therefore profit by it but things have changed oh dear
how do I get the rights to use those ‘this looks familiar’ lyrics without being hung drawn and quartered or will I just have to change them which I can live with but I have no idea what to change them to
do I have to do that with the Dangermouse transcript as well? and the Monty Python quotes? am I going to get in trouble for already self publishing those parts? oh crap oh jeez oh hell oh help someone help me i DON’T WANT TO BE DOING ANYTHING ILLEGAL I DIDN’T MEAN FOR THIS
I found a blog post that you might find useful
Also thisI was kind of hoping that on investigating I’d find out that you’re ok, but It seems like song lyrics might be a problem because they aren’t covered by fair use policy, (although song titles should be fine, as should small quotes from other works of media. Which is great because I got a HUGE kick out of that Danger Mouse quote) You could change them to songs that are in the public domain, which would cover a lot of old standards.
I hope that this is a step towards getting the publisher you need/deserve!
oh, oh I do hope that’s the case, I guess I can change the part with Hero singing to some public domain stuff I mean it’s a shame but hell I don’t want to go to jail mama I’m too young D8 also I’d love to buy the rights but looking at average costs for that stuff is like woah yikes goodbye life savings
I’m sorry guys I’m such a wreck right now this has done a total number on my nerves but yeah if anyone finds out something more about these issues please tell me I don’t want to do the wrong thing by anyone, I really don’t
