There's stuff for people who like stuff!
(Design by Humans, Amazon, Bandcamp etc. Not on TeeSpring yet. The approval/review process takes forever for some reason) :( Check links in vod description!
New Foamy this Tue/Wed, Also still working on that comic... and everything else. Podcast posted the other day if ya missed it. Twitch stream tomorrow at Noon ET. It's been the usual 24/7. Hopefully I can get some more comics done for the socials too. Comic book has kinda de-railed that a bit. (Also some new music in January hopefully) Busy, busy!

Did some more work on that Foamy/Neurotically Yours comic. So the first 12 pages are done. :) Progress!

Still working on that Foamy comic... hints? Clues? NOPE! Top secret stuff!
(It's a slow roll, still animating/streaming on Twitch, making music, etc. etc.) :)

New music is being released on October 13th on Bandcamp, Spotify, itch.io, and a ton of other streaming services! Also downloadable for Patrons! (It's a collection of dark ambient music for those who don't like the sun.) :)
Other than that... work as usual. It's not like I can go out or anything... might as well be creative inside.

Worked on the Neurotically Yours comic a bit more ... :P
(It'll take awhile to get done 'cause I'm still animating cartoons as well.)

Since I probably wont be able to animate EVERY idea I want to for Neurotically Yours, I'll try some comics. They're "easier" & I can get more stories out there quicker. Would like to animate everything, but I'm just one person doing all this, so it's probably going to be impossible. But at least I'll have some stories down in case Netflix calls. (They won't call) :(

Yep, it's been 20 years of Foamy! On this day, September 10th, 2001. The very first Neurotically Yours comic was published! Cartoons soon followed, 20 years passed and there ya go. I generally don't do a bunch of celebrating due to the following day being Sept 11th, but I don't want to overlook everyone who has supported over the years. Some for the full 20! So honestly, this milestone is more about Foamy fans, not about me or Dawn. If there weren't folks supporting this, it would be a lot harder for Dawn & I to keep things going. (Probably impossible.) So thank you everyone for the support. Be it merch, donations, goodies, or simply spreading the world, sharing episodes or comic strips. Every bit has helped. And generally... the best way for me to thank people... is to... GET BACK TO WORK!!!!
C'mon! Can't start slackin' now!

Generally I don't make a big deal about anniversaries, as Sept 10th is the very first day that "Neurotically Yours" went live as a comic book. Of course 24 hours later all hell broke loose on 9/11, (I lived in NY at the time) so Foamy's anniversary always has this looming shadow of sorrow about it. So for the last 20 years I just kinda keep to myself rather than make a big deal about it.
With all that being said, and just in case I don't mention it on the 10th, thanks to everyone who have been supporting over the years. Viewers new and old have been extremely supportive, and it's appreciated. Usually the only way I know how to thank folks is by getting back to work to create new stuff.... which I'm gonna do... right now!
Though on a side note, Foamy & Germaine date further back. 1995 for Foamy & 1993 for Germaine, but generally weren't put together until the late 90's in a bunch of odd little doodles... which eventually became what it is now. So maybe I should pick a different date for an anniversary or something? Idk. It would probably be 23 years if I counted the doodles and sketches they were in together. Eh, whatever. Back to work!
