Five Glasses of Absinthe

Since the sex scene goes up tomorrow, I finally got off my butt and put a big ol’ “ADULTS ONLY!” page at the front of the site. The RSS and LJ feeds should keep working just fine, but if you read Absinthe by hitting a bookmark you might want to update it.

Also, there were some issues with the test print of the book, so I’m doing a second test print. It should be ready soon.

We’re almost done with the first chapter. There’ll be a hiatus while we work on the second one; we hope you’ll come back for it! And tell your friends.

I just posted the cover that I’m putting on the first collected volume. It’ll show up if you hit the ‘first page’ link now.

I can’t remember whether Nick and I agreed it should be “A Decorative Romance” or “A Decorative Fantasy”. I may have to change this!

And speaking of the first collected volume, I got e-mail from Lulu yesterday telling me that my test copy has shipped! If all goes well then I’ll have a small pile of them at Rainfurrest; find me in the dealer’s room and you can get a signed copy and ogle all the little details at 300dpi!

Two things!

First, a huge thanks to Rheoryn for being our first three-digit donation – that link to the Furry Pound in the sponsor section is due to her. We’ll be giving her a cameo appearance somewhere in the next chapter. If anyone else makes a similar donation, we’ll do the same for you!

Second,Five Glasses of Absinthe will be part of the “Monsters of Webcomics” exhibition at the Museum of Cartoon Art in San Francisco – more precisely, it’s part of the “virtual gallery” portion of the exhibit, which I believe is a monitor or two cycling various images from all across the net. The exhibit opened last Saturday (August 8), and will be up until December 6.
