Hello everyone, hope you’re all hanging in there. I know it’s been a tough year. I’d like to do what little I can, so I’m giving out holiday cards. Here are the details.

1) Donate $5.00 USD or more to any of the following charities:

The Trevor Project
Planned Parenthood
Center for Reproductive Rights
International Refugee Assistance Project
Mexican American Legal Defense and Education Fund
NAACP Legal Defense and Education Fund

2) Email me (jisukcho at gmail) a screenshot or forward your confirmation, along with your name and address. International addresses are cool, too. You must have donated on or after Nov 19, 2016.

3) I will send you a holiday postcard with a personal message, and it will be terribly gay and cheerful (preview above).

If you want to donate to a different charity please run it by me first! Also, Patreon users who have been giving $5 or more to Fishbones will automatically get the postcard, but feel free to donate to a charity anyway if your heart desires.

I will also choose one random person who reblogs this to send a postcard to, as well! You must have Asks allowed on your page (or some way of contacting you). You don’t have to be following me.

Thank you, I love you all and I hope you have a safe and happy holiday season!

Design a Yokai Contest

Hey everyone! I’m holding a contest for Karasu where you can design your own yokai. I will draw the winning designs into the above sketch so they can have dinner with everyone at Urameshiya. Heh ehheh.

Deadline: March 2, 2015 (Monday)

Prizes

1st/2nd place: Spots A and B on the above drawing (and a mini print of the final)

3rd: Postcard and stickers

4th: Postcard

Details

Design a yokai character! Please use existing types so it follows proper Japanese mythology (eg: oni, yuki-onna, etc).

Types of yokai: Yokai.com / Wikipedia

Your design can be in any layout or medium, but it should be in color.

Only humanoid yokai can win 1st and 2nd place. By humanoid I mean has arms, a torso, a head, etc. You’re free to design any shape and size of yokai but the spots in the drawing are best suited for humanoids (spot A is for an average sized figure and Spot B is for a large one).

As you can see, there are already 4 tengu in the drawing. You can design a tengu, but they cannot win 1st/2nd place. On that note, please don’t design a rokurokubi I don’t really have room for two long necks haha.

You can use an existing character as long as the drawing is new and made for the contest.

You can draw your character interacting with Karasu characters if you want!

No monsters from other countries’ (Korea, China, etc) mythologies, please.

To apply, you can post your art on Tumblr and tag it #yokaicontest (one word), or post it on dA and send me a note.
You can also email me at jisukcho at gmail.

If you have any questions please send me an ask or email. Thanks guys!

Postcard Set

[Buy Here]

I am now offering the Fishbones postcard set for sale separately from the books. Previously, the only way to get a set was to buy a signed copy of Fishbones in paperback or hardcover. Now you can get just the cards! They’re discounted a bit ($4.00 $3.50) and include a free bookmark.

Thanks for your support, everyone!
