Cancelling Denver and Dallas Well, the summer begins, and for us it's actually the end of con season until September. Unfortunately, due to a back injury, we're going to have to cancel our next few con trips, so Dallas Fan Expo and Denver Comicon are out of our rotation this year. It's a huge bummer but Danielle really needs some time to heal and with all the other cons and family trips we've taken this year she definitely needs a break anyway. Anyway, we're still on for Rose City in September, but in the mean time we're going to be taking a little hiatus from appearances while we get all our stuff figured out. Thanks for all your thoughts and prayers, and we look forward to seeing you all in person again soon!

Temporary Hiatus Hey everyone! Hope things are going well with you. So, here's some kinda not great news: we're going to be taking a hiatus from updating our webcomics until after Jet City Con, returning on Nov 10. The short explanation is medical reasons. The long one is that Danielle has been struggling with back problems for the last... many years, and is having another flare-up that seems to be different. Because it's lower back pain, it makes it hard to sit in the same position for the hours it takes for her to draw pages. We're hoping this will resolve itself, but we'll be seeing some doctors to try and figure out the root cause. Please be patient with us as we work out what's going on and try to get her back to 100%. Thanks for all your support!

New Site Launched As you can see, we have launched our new experience! It is now easier than ever to seee the content we've created on various different websites. Starting this week, you'll begin to see weekly updates of all three comics, including the newly Odd19-branded Meticulous Failure, our previous webcomic Limited Immunity, and our newly webcomic-formatted Sin of Omniscience. Coming soon, we'll be launching a variety of campaigns for you to donate money if you find value in what we do. We'll do our best to avoid advertising, but for now we're using a nice low-cost hosting solution so we don't need it... yet. So enjoy all the free content, and feel free to share it with your friends!

Odd19 Goes Digital We're a pretty new company, and honestly this is our first attempt to self-publish, so we've learned a lot of things along the way. We've changed our creative process multiple times to make things faster without sacrificing quality. We've tried hiring contractors for steps of the creative process. We've changed vendors to get higher quality books in a faster timeframe. We've begun selling our books through digital channels. And most recently, we've discovered a few things. We get most of our high sales (total volume * cost) at conventions. This makes sense, because you're selling to an audience that's already interested in the type of product you're selling. But the problem is that the conventions cost a ton for us to both fly out to and then stay at a hotel. Even if we sell a ton of prints and commissions, we have a high bar to hit to break even. Since we went online, our highest volume has been through comixology. People are excited to purchase a book for our prices (.99 or 1.99, depending on the issue), and the feedback we've gotten is that they love the art and the story: the content is more important to them than the physical product. After our second book was released, both were found on the pirate bay. This means either someone purchased our book and uploaded it, or figured out how to get the high res assets from comixology and put them online shortly after. From what we've seen, it currently has a lot of downloads and people are still seeding it (post it for download from their computer via torrent, for those who don't know how these things work). So, we spent a long time trying to figure out how to make this information work for us. We really wanted to get feedback, and the biggest feedback we got was that people really wanted to read our stuff and they really wanted it sooner than later. In some cases, people were very interested in what we had to say, they got it illegally. Well, to fit all these goals, we've decided to convert Sin of Omniscience into a web comic. We'll still be selling the "books" as physical collections, and we'll be providing a different cover to any reprints so that if you've purchased our books, they're now one of an original set and will never be re-printed in that fashion. Starting September 1st, we will be posting new free pages of Sin of Omniscience on our website. We feel like this is the best way to get the story out to our readers and fans, and still have products to sell through our site and at conventions. We'll be providing a new page of free SoO content on our site once a week. Because of the new processes we're using, we're also going to have time to update Limited Immunity once a week. Watch this space on Sept 1st for a brand new experience!
