Hey everyone!
Sorry I've been so quiet. A LOT has been going on in life, and most of it has been Not Fun™. But, things are finally looking up, and I'll be more active here/there/everywhere soon. I currently have no cons scheduled, commissions are closed (and I have a backlog to finish), but the comic will is back on schedule. I'm hoping 2017 will see us back in the convention circuit, which means stalking con reg this summer. Fingers crossed that we can hit FC, Rainfurrest, BLFC, something on the east coast (not sure what), and if we're VERY lucky-- Confuzzled. Not sure. But we'll work on that. I miss it. I miss YOU guys.
This year is all about getting things in order now that Aaron and I both have jobs again- good jobs! -upgrading equipment, paying things off, repairing credit, etc. Maybe getting a car, since ours was repossessed this last summer (yeah it was a FUN year lemme tell ya). I'm also finally going to get the medical care that I've needed for a while, which will allow me to be at my desk without so much pain. That means MORE art and MORE writing. Yay!
Anyway, just know that I'm not dead. In fact, I'm posting really crappy sketches on my tumblr quite often, which you can see here: http://gabapple.tumblr.com/
I say crappy because I draw doodles while at work and take photos with my cell phone (that has had no service for months) in poor lighting. But there are occasionally fun things, so go watch me if you're of a tumblring sort!
THANK YOU for your patience and continued support. You're all the best! <3

I'm glad things are looking up for you!
They had a contract with the hotel, and from what I heard the hotel was like "You let us break the contract, and we won't have you pay for the damages." The Bellvue convention center said they would take them, IF, and ONLY IF they manage to have TWO years without any issues.
The ONLY hotels in the ENTIRE STATE that is willing to take them is in Spokane. So yeah, it's Spokane for TWO YEARS MIN, or RF is dead.
Speaking as a slightly bitter ex-staff member (I'll admit being bitter and still upset at 3-4 certain staff members), I'm betting on it being dead, knowing the current con chair and how they handle things.
Thanks for the information. Yikes...
I've seen the Lycra suits too, usually used by people emulating the musical 'Cats', so to me that's not as bad as obvious fetish gear. More like "I'm a drama student and don't want to make two costumes".
And, as far as repossession goes, it's never a fun thing. I've gone through two in the past year and a half, but things happen and at least they're starting to look up! At least from what I can see. x3 Hope to see you in a better spot soon, and definitely look forward to seeing more art from you. c:
