There is now a characterless sneak peek of the upcoming update under the vote button to the right of this blog. Characterless... that's a word, right?

As always, thanks for reading.

This week, Danielle and I went camping for our 7th anniversary. This cost me two days worth of work and was... so worth it.

Anyways, that next page (which sort of explains the wagon) didn't end up being a part of this update.

As always, thanks for reading.

There is now a sneak peek of two panels from the upcoming update, under the vote button to the right of this blog.

As always, thanks for reading.

Originally, Danielle and I were going to travel to Montreal to attend Worldcon. Unfortunately, a delay at the printers has made it impossible for us to get Goblins-Book Two in time for the con. Without that book to sell, our profits would be lessened to the point where the trip is no longer financially justified. So we have been forced to cancel the trip.

I'll still be holding the fan comic contest sometime soon. Details will show up here at some point.

As always, thanks for reading.

There's a new sneak peek under the vote button to the right there.

Thanks everyone who's voted Goblins up to the #1 spot! Look at us go!

As always, thanks for reading.

Those of you who like to pop into the live feed of me drawing, ranting and sometimes playing with my action figures will have noticed that I haven't been there in days. That's because the site that hosts the live feed, Justin.tv, has made some technical changes which have caused my connection with their broadcaster to be choppy and unpredictable. The admins there (okay, one admin) has been very helpful in trying to find the problem but at this point he's basically shrugging his shoulders and giving up. Asking Justin.tv for further help at this point is kind of like calling the police and asking them you help you find your car keys. It's just not going to happen.

Now before you helpful readers start emailing me with great advice on how to fix the problem, let me say that this problem has been confirmed to be on Justin.tv's end and there is nothing that I can do. But thanks anyways to you tech savy folks who were halfway to clicking on my email link to help.

So in an attempt to move on, I looked into Ustream, another live broadcasting site. That's when I noticed this little gem tucked into their terms of service...

(i) License Grant. Ustream.tv does not claim ownership rights in your User Submissions. However, by uploading, streaming, submitting, emailing, posting, publishing or otherwise transmitting any User Submission to Ustream.tv or on the Site, you hereby grant Ustream.tv a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free, sublicensable, perpetual and irrevocable right and license to use, reproduce, modify, adapt, prepare derivative works based on, perform, display, publish, distribute, transmit, broadcast and otherwise exploit such User Submissions in any form, medium or technology now known or later developed, including without limitation on the Site and third party websites.

You agree to execute and deliver such documents and provide all assistance reasonably requested by Ustream.tv to give to Ustream.tv the full benefit of the rights granted to Ustream.tv by you.

Now... am I wrong in thinking that they're legally dressing me up in a skimpy french maid's outfit and having their kinky way with me? That they could take an image of say, Big Ears that I was drawing on their feed and put him in a book, movie or whatever they feel like making and there'd be nothing that I could do? I'm no lawyer, but it sure looks that way. I've emailed MINEstream... er... I mean Ustream today with this question, so we'll see what they say.

I'll have a new sneak peak up tonight.

As always, thanks for reading.

In an attempt to get back onto my "around Monday, sometimes Tuesday and on rare occasions, Sunday" schedule, I'm posting this small update. Next week's update will contain the last third of this page and at least one other page.

(The crowded panels always take so much longer than panels containing one or two characters.)

As always, thanks for reading.

There is a new peek of the next update under the vote button to the right of this blog. Clicking on it not only lets you see the unfinished panel, it pushes Goblins up the top ten list over at TopWebComics. This promotes the comic and lets more people find it. Also, there are a ton of great webcomics in that list, I recommend taking a look at them and if you find something else in there that you like, please support them by voting, emailing them praise (we comic authors kinda like that) or even buying a t-shirt or something. Of course, simply returning to their site to read the comic is a great way to support them too!

On another note, I'd like to say thank you to everyone who has been emailing me or posting in the forums with kind words about the comic. I can't respond to everyone and frankly, I gave up trying to answer every email a long time ago, but I read absolutely all of them and every single "thank you for the comic" email that I get makes me smile and feel very good about entertaining people. So to all of you, thank you.

As always, thanks for reading.

There is a new sneak peek picture under the vote button to the right of this blog. It contains an excessive amount of ogre drool.
