About

Hi! Thank you for reading The Dawn Chapel, I’m pretty excited that you’d want to! I started doing this comic in the fall of 2009, with the objective of just doing a comic page a week to try to teach myself how to tell stories visually and see if I could keep a regular update schedule. I shoot for updates on fridays but as often as not, I am late and wind up posting later on the weekend. Some people are pretty good at getting their comic out according to a regular schedule; I am not one of them.

I don’t know, should I write something else here? How about a faq? I guess people like those?

Haha this is a pretty funny comic and — whoa wait there sure are lot of talking animal people. Is.. is this a furry comic?  I think I got betrayed

Yeah this comic is usually pretty furry, but not aways.  If I feel like talking animal characters work with whatever the comic is, they’re probably gonna be there.

Does this mean that you are a furry? I don’t think I am okay with that.

Oh man, totally.  I don’t have like a costume or anything, but I do draw loads of weird furry art and I’ve been active in the furry crowd for years before I started this project.  I don’t even have the good sense to be embarassed about it anymore.

I’ll try to leave the weirdness out of the comic, though!  I mean, the bad weird, anyway.  I don’t wanna freak nobody out that I don’t have to.

If I still like this comic does.. does that make me a furry? :(

Not necessarily, I guess?  I don’t know, ain’t everybody who liked Star Wars got to wear a stormtrooper uniform, you know?  I’m not gonna rat you out to your friends for liking my comic, if you’re worried.

Wait, I don’t understand, what is a furry?

If you are reading this comic and you are asking this question, you are probably my mom, and I love you but I am not prepared to have this conversation with you

Can I commission you to draw a thing?

Yes, absolutely! Commission information can be found here.

Howcome the prices on your originals are so weird?

I tend to price my original artwork based on how willing I am to let go of it, rather than an objective assessment of how much it’s “worth.”  If I don’t really want to sell something, I’ll price it so high that if it does wind up selling, I won’t be too upset about it.

Why is this comic called The Dawn Chapel?  There is nothing morningy or churchy about it.

When I started doing this comic I had registered the url dawnchapel.com for another project that I never got around to starting, and rather than spend the money to register a new url (and have to think up a title for this comic) I figured I’d just use what I already had.  It is probably the dumbest way to name a webcomic; and if it is the dumbest way to name a webcomic (like, if there’s an objective review board or whatever that is able to confirm that this is the dumbest way to name a webcomic), I would like a prize.

I have another question that is not answered here; this is a problem and you should do something.

Ask me!
