SOLD OUT
I wish I could catch up but life just keeps kicking my ass. Luckily I have the best fans ever to pick me back up – all copies of volume one are SOLD OUT! Thank you so much!! I have sent off the last one. I printed way more than I initially intended because of the countless defects but I sold every last one of them and don’t even have my own copy anymore (oops).
I LOVE YOU GUYS. This is just a stupid hobby, something I do for fun. I don’t really promote it and never tried to capitalize on it. Even the ad space barely covers hosting costs. This small print run was for you since you said you wanted it and I put down a big chunk of money to make it happen without any pre-order gimmicks. It humbles me greatly that you helped me beyond breaking even and something I made is on every fucking continent right now. I didn’t expect I’d attract such diverse and amazing fans when I wrote this. However, I’m also a much different person than I was when I was sixteen. Though I try to update the script to suit me as time progresses I’m itching to move on to newer and bigger things. I’ve learned a lot about my creative process and would like to apply it to something I can really be proud of.
BUT not before I finish of course! While I may be sold out of batch one, batch two will come alongside volume two when it’s ready – which should be in a few months (aiming to have everything edited and formatted in time for the holidays but who knows). We’re past the halfway mark of the full story but there’s a lot left to go. I’m endlessly sorry for all the wait and I appreciate anyone who is still sticking around.
I want to do something as a thank you but I’m not sure what. Finishing all of those AACs? A wallpaper? Fanservice? A FANSERVICE WALLPAPER IDK let me know what you want!
I got over 30 sketch orders…Serus won half of those.

Firstly: congratulations!
Secondly: two rooks is something to be extremely proud of! So there might be some good webcomics out there. But there are a few reasons why yours feels more special: it has a unique and fascinating pace of storytelling, were the little details astound you time and time again. Toping that off with beautiful, capturing and most of all expressive artwork from page one; and if that was not enough you created an amazing cast of characters unlike anything I have seen.
So it might not mean much coming from a single person but I really do love this work of yours, have been for years and will do so until the very end, however long that will take!
And lastly: new AACs would be a blast, but then anything extra is very much appreciated^^
We love you too!
I completely and totally agree with Ata, this comic is above and beyond so many others. The art is breath-takingly unique, the plot is satisfyingly twisty, the humor is always right on, and the characters are all so REAL, they are the life-blood of the whole thing.
But you are the heart and the brains behind it all, and without you, there would be no Serus, no Dea, no Juniper! All our lives would be colder… emptier without ever knowing your amazingly colorful creations.
So I thankYOU for your devotion and hard work! I started Two Rooks at the end of chapter six, and two days later I was (and am) eager and waiting for more.
Anything you give us will be feeding our TR addiction, and as always, we will eagerly gobble it up, hungry for more!
ps, can’t wait for volume two! :3
Congratulations! I’m voting for the AACs, But anything TR related would make the fans happy, I surmise. We’re happy that you’re happy, so joy all around. :)
Ah, I forgot to ask – if life stops drop kicking you around-about the backyard, could you fix the Ask-a-character question box? It gets stuck on the ‘one moment please…’ frame. (if it’s just my computer, ignore this >_<;)
Yeah I know about this, I can fix it but since I need to catch up with the insane backlog that already exists I haven’t bothered. I’ll let you know when it goes back up.
Eeeee, sold out? That’s awesome! Congratulations! :D
(And hey, the copies with defects could even become collector’s items.)
I’ll add another vote for the AACs. Those are all sorts of fun. ♥
