I made a horrible mistake with my latest comic!

But seriously…

From the several first days, it is clear that Lady Hootler is not selling as well as my previous comics. It is approximately 40% down from the sales of my previous comic - The Queen And The Pauper.

I didn’t expect that, but thinking about that I think it makes sense…

First, I’m sure 99.9% of my following IS BASED on the way I look, and the biggest attraction of my comic books in the Mrs.G comic book series (which do contain erotic scenes) is the following promise - hey, maybe you won’t SEE the real me in sexual situations, but here are stories featuring a very authentic replica of me; and I personally will put that copy of me in quite sexual and erotic situations. So, as a reader and follower, you can imagine that it is me, while not really being me. And that erotica works, because people DO get quite aroused when reading those comics. (Which IS the purpose of erotic scenes). Now those comics do contain stories, but I think while the people enjoy the stories, the initial motivation for getting the comics for most of the buyers is the erotica parts.

Lady Hootler comic series is, however, different. There is sexiness, and yes - I did base Lady Hootler on myself again, both to make the comic more interesting to my fans, but also because it gives much more possibilities, like that ad you saw at the start of this newsletter. But, as I mentioned multiple times, Lady Hootler is not intentionally erotica, and doesn’t contain erotic scenes. So, in no scene, I was thinking - OK, I need to arouse the reader here.

And a second reason for less sales might be that this time, for this or that reason, there was 10 months between my comics. Enough time for some people to lose their interest, to forget my comics and me as an author.

So, what will happen with Lady Hootler then? Was it really a horrible mistake?

If you know me, you probably know the answer. F*ck no! I love the comic, and I love the universe we are creating. Yes, I love having more readers, and having less readers for some comics feels disappointing, but the number of readers alone was NEVER my final goal. I want to have readers for the things I LOVE writing.

I try to produce comics that I personally find entertaining, and I personally see a value in. Yes, I’m a new author, so I’m hopefully excused for the quality of my writing and story not being as good as they can be, but I’m trying, and I’m always asking you - my readers to give it to me straight. Because I want to grow. And I do read and watch bunch of things, so I can learn more, and make more interesting and more impactful stories.

And I have so many new ideas that I want to explore. Lady Hootler series is one of those, and I’m so excited about what I’m preparing for this series!

We are also working on the other series - The Alienation of Mrs.Goodwin, which is about an alien falling into a medieval town, which ends affecting the life of Mrs.Goodwin in a quite peculiar way.

Thank you!

What I want to end with, is the feeling of gratitude.

Without you guys, I’m aware I would struggle to sell even dozen of copies. It is really, really hard to sell comics. And while I want to believe that if you create a good enough comic, the word of mouth might help spreading it, I’m guessing my stories are not on that level yet. I love them, but what authors love writing vs. what is interesting to public in general can be two quite different things.

Also, creating comics is VERY EXPENSIVE (the artists that work on those, spend days upon days on each comic, the fastest we created one is like 6 months of work). So, I’m very thankful that I got lot of you, who are also supporting me through my Patreon. So, love you guys, and again… Thank you! ❤️
