One year ago, on April 16th 2024, the first page of Peregrine Lake went online. One year since we first met Bev as she drove through a snow storm and said the exact thing most of us have said in that scenario.
It took so long for Peregrine Lake to get off the ground. I first announced it back in December of 2019, and originally I was going to draw it. And then the world fell apart, and I found myself with zero ability to draw it anymore. I kept kicking the idea around, wanting to move it forward when in 2023 I jokingly suggested to my friend Ethan that they could draw the comic for me.
And they said yes, they'd love to, and I am not one to look a gift horse in the mouth.
We then spent almost a year regularly meeting, talking about my plans for the plots, the world, the characters, and all the things that would have otherwise just lived in my head. I started scripting comics, and Ethan got to work on concept art. And for most of 2023 we planned and got ready, and we hit the ground running in 2024.
And now we're here. Honestly, I love everything we've put out over the last year. Ethan's art is incredible, and tells the story in a way that I'm not sure mine would have. I love this comic, I love that you all are reading it, and I'm excited to show you what's coming next.
Because we've only just scratched the surface on how weird this is going to get.
On April 26th I'm going to be at Concinnity in Milwaukee, WI! Stop on by and say hi if you're in town!

Is this follow-up fall-out from the day before? I’ve known some conventions to bench or take off the floor staff members or volunteers who have drama tied to them; same-said conventions have also black-listed people from volunteering for drama/baggage
It isn’t.
Especially since Sarah wasn’t involved in that situation.
But I betcha Lynn is finding a bit more free time today.
This could be bad…. Sarah hyped up on caffeine and sugar with nothing to do.
I’ve got the popcorn ready 🙂
Eh, Sunday’s are often slow anyway, don’t always need a full staff. So long as everyone still gets invited to the afterparty… and clean-up detail… need lots of folks for that.
Let me know how you motivate your staff members to help with tear-down and clean-up; the ones at my primary con are lazy shits who care much more about free food than getting our stuff back on the truck
No food until cleanup is done. Also, no booze until cleanup is done. Between the two, it’s not bad.
