Recent comic, "0158 — Old and Gray" (Tier 1, Fridays, 168 strips and growing)

I hang in the comments every Friday after the strip posts and chat with everyone for a while — a true high point of my week. It's a healthy and positive community of fans old and new, and a wonderful respite from the rest of Internet Discussing. Please come in and join the conversation! I'd love to get to know you.

Also, by all member accounts, the new strips are scratching the same itch the old ones did! And I've never missed an update in two years:

Last Month in the In-Universe Tier (Tier 2, Weds + Fri, 266 posts)

All kinds of canon and off-canon oddities post in Tier 2 (which also includes all Tier 1 benefits), including these adventures at Microsoft in the year 1953:

Also in Tier 2, every Friday I post a "making of this strip" strip. It goes up two hours after the main strip, and has garnered its own sub-cult-following:

Tier 2 also includes interactive trivia contests, Ray's Place (Ray's advice column, which you actually write in to and get answers from Ray), the Achewood Serializer archives, and the Achewood Assetbar archives.

Join Tier 2!

Recently in the Author's Tier (Tier 3, M-F, 256 posts)

• More pages from my old hand-drawn non-Achewood comix book "BonAire and Balanesçu"

• Eight (and growing) carefully edited, real-time European travel diaries, between 500-1100 words each (full sample post attached as PDF at bottom of this newsletter!) I travel often, and always post written and photo journals.

• Photo tours from my studio, life, kitchen, and more

• A 38-page chapbook from 2010 (several chapbooks have posted already; 11 will post in total)

• New merch previews and polling

• Includes all of Tiers 1 & 2.

Tier Three has the greatest variety from the broadest sweep of my life, including plenty of autobiography, family background, myriad non-Achewood writing projects, columns, Achewood history, travelogues, cooking & recipes, my "fashion sauce" diaries, and innumerable other personal ride-alongs.

Join Tier 3!

Seen enough? Come in and join the fun!

You can join for as little as one month, and read the entire archive! Of course, I'd really love to have you as a member of the community, where you'll finally get to connect with like-minded people over Achewood and much else (there is also a full Discord for all members). The Achewood Patreon is so active — both with new content and member activity — that it's quickly become a happy, healthy momentary distraction on the road to the grave, with no bothersome noise from the outside world.
