March 2nd, 2023
No more teasing. Let’s talk about the future: you and me, right here, right now.
Our brand new Kickstarter, Sleeping Kitty Stretches, starts today.
So what does that mean?
When a cat sleeps, it dreams; when it wakes up to get what it wants, it stretches.
Playing our cards right, this opportunity means we’re going to expand in ways that are both a natural evolution and hopefully a little unexpected.
The base goal is to publish two graphic novels: Brushfire: Wave 2 in July 2023, and Jojo’s Time Machine in 2024.
This is something I have done before.
But for the first time ever, we — yes, we — have stretch goals that could have fantastic and far-reaching consequences.
I want to create an Animation + Audio division of Sleeping Kitty Productions. If enough people invest, we’ll be able to acquire hardware and produce one, two, or three animated short films, and one, two, or three audiobooks, based on my previous work (including Them, which I’ll be talking about all month!).
This is what I want to do, and these are the things friends and fans have asked me for for years. We can make it happen together. You and me.
All the details (there are so many details!) are at our Kickstarter:

The video I produced might be my favorite ever. There’s a ton of photos and original art there, too.
Oh — who is this “we”? My good friend Steven Starks will be joining me in this endeavor, and he has a whole lot more to say on our page.
He and I just want to create art — the grand and intimate, emotional and funny kind — and we’re finally making the decision and taking the plunge to do a big project together. I am terrified and excited and mostly terrified but gosh, am I excited.
I hope you’ll join us.
As always, always, always — all my love.
P.S. Like, love, and share if this is something you care about, too! Even (or especially) if your financial support isn’t a viable option, which I totally understand. You do what’s right for you. I support that above all.
