Hey folks! I’m posting a bit early this week, because by tomorrow afternoon, I’ll be on my way to VanCAF — the Vancouver Comic Arts Festival! If you’re in Vancouver, drop by (it’s a free festival) and see me in Hall 1 at table G3! Tell me you follow this comic and get a free postcard map of the world of Mermaid Music, and a big grin from me!

Chapter Two — Under the Waves

Page 53 — Introducing Whelk of the Octopus clan, Gull of the Anemone clan, and Chirikik of the Fins. Hands and Fins can do so many things for each other… in this case they can get each other in trouble!

First post on the new schedule — in case you missed it, I’m now updating on Fridays instead of Mondays, around about 3 pm Pacific Time. Please let me know how this works for you! I’d also love to hear feedback from people about the new characters and new threads I’ve been weaving into the story, and I’ve been experimenting a bit with the art — tell me what you think! I love comments!

Extra Post Added!

I’m pleased to announce that I’m finally feeling far enough ahead to make two Mermaid Music posts a week! The webcomic will now update on Fridays and Mondays. My ultimate goal is to be able to do three times a week, hopefully in the next couple of weeks.

I’m planning to have the first chapter of 36 pages in print before VanCAF in late May, after which I’ll take a breather of a week or two to get the next chapter underway. But don’t worry, there will be mermaid art to fill the gap — here’s a way-ahead teaser!
