when everything feels shitty i do the one thing i got
i share my comics freely. last time i did it was during the early days of covid and since this is what i do best it's my way of trying to help people escape a bit.
so here, download link to pdfs of all of sunstone so far, and some other comics

AND, according to whencanireusethiscalendar.com, you’ll be able to reuse it in 2034, 2045, and 2051

no plans for reprints, only dustjackets will be made. hardcovers are expensive to make especially these days so it's next to impossible to even break even on low sales

Stjepan Sejic @stjepansejic.bsky.social · 3d

we won't be reprinting 3, however 4 will come with dustjackets addons for all 4 books. one dustjacket set will be the basic cover, second one will be portrait covers with a portrait cover made for 3 and 4

and there will be a third dustjacket set for fun cause i like painting these dorks XD

so is 1. there are two wolves inside these dorks

one pretends to be all dignified and embracing the kayfabe of their roles

the other wolf is a dumbass too scared to speak their feelings :P

Stjepan Sejic @stjepansejic.bsky.social · 3d

yes. they have 2 covers, a simple one and a portrait one for volumes 1 and 2.

volume 3's sales were low. the book couldn't even reach 50 reviews on amazon. end result being the standard published hardcovers end with volume 3

1 7

Stjepan Sejic @stjepansejic.bsky.social · 3d

they got the new covers years ago. 3 will never get the same treatment as the sales were low enough to completely shut down future hardcovers through standard publishing.

i'll give the fourth hardcover a shot through crowdfunding at some point and see how that pans out

doing some new covers for small manga sized reprints of sunstone that start releasing in february. these will be friggin adorable

smallstone XD

it's beyond mental that romance as a genre is a multibillion dollar industry and its presence in comics outside webcomics is next to nonexistent

Stjepan Sejic @stjepansejic.bsky.social · 5d

oh yeah, kickstarter is not a guarantee of success, not even a high chance. it's simply a different venue

Stjepan Sejic @stjepansejic.bsky.social · 5d

sure is! then again so is just trying to make and promote a creator owned comic on any given day. it's just a strugglebus and we're all riding it

legit why many creators embraced crowdfunding. if you have to do the marketing and the actual creative work, may as well go all in
