Newsletter #26: Quickie
"I miss human touch" -me, 2005-now
Hey! Just a quick one today!
WHY? BECAUSE YOU’RE SO BUSY
I … don’t … please don’t be like that
SORRY
I just wanted to get this in under the wire!
I’m auctioning off a PERSONALIZED EROTIC STORY AND ZOOM READING! The end of the auction is at noon EST, and a very nice person currently has the high bid of $420.69, in honour of the fact that the auction ends on 4/20 and they had an extra sixty-nine cents in their pocket? I don’t know.
ANYHOO, the money goes toward helping independent bookstores and comic shops, so I’m really hoping to get this up to $4,269.60 by noon.
And, like I always say just prior to a sexual encounter, “I’ll be real erotic, I swear. This is for charity.”
THAT’S NICE, I GUESS
The other quick thing I wanted to mention is CHIP ZDARSKY’S GUIDE TO ENTERTAINMENT CONSUMPTION DURING QUARANTINE, my new article over at IGN (Internet Geeks, Nerds)! They asked me what I was consuming during this time besides double stuff Oreos and I happily obliged. GO CHECK IT OUT HERE!
AS ALWAYS, THE CHIP ZDARSKY NEWSLETTER SEEMS A LITTLE TOO HEAVY ON THE “CHIP ZDARSKY”
Hm, it is true that even people who like me also hate me, so here’s some NON-Chip news: There’s a cool new digital comic out from Panel Syndicate called FRIDAY! It’s beautifully illustrated by Marcos Martin and Muntsa Vicente and is written by Ed “Crime” Brubaker, who turns his crimelight toward YA with this one. It’s VERY good and also “pay what you can,” so go pay what you can (a lot).
CHIP ANSWERS QUESTIONS
Every week I’ll answer one POLITE and RESPECTFUL question about my life as a “writer” or about my erotica. The email is zdarskyletters@gmail.com.
Why am I sad all the time?
-Chip Zdarsky
You know why.
Best,
Chip
OH, ALSO
This is how comics are made now.
