Announcing Adam's new erotica short story book: LATE NIGHT SHORTS vol 2, now live on Kickstarter.com! 84 pages of saucy action guaranteed to give and get boners!
Hello my friends! The Kickstarter for my new erotica graphic novel, STARSLAM RETURNS is live on Kickstarter and you can pre-order the book and get great stuff for yourself right here:
Below here is a trailer I made for the book on YOUTUBE:
Its 140 pages of slam bang hot action as Bethany Hofferman (STARSLAM) comes to terms with who she is and why she does what she does. There are a ton of new characters and the return of a few old friends in STARSLAM RETURNS!
Folks, I'm proud of this one. I've had it in my head since last year. And now I'm seeing it all come together, its a happening. A total happening. You won't want to miss it. Join my Kickstarter now and get the book to see all the glory! I thank you for your support.
Yesterday was Harlan Ellison's birthday, so I am inspired to write. I wrote a blog back at the PATREON page I run, but very few see that. I try to still provide some content here at my trusty old website for those who still trickle in. Thank you for coming back. Either on your own or prompted by me posting of its existence on social media. Lots of things bombarding your brain and demanding your attention everyday. I'm glad you took a minute to listen to me.
I did some cards for a BETTIE PAGE card set through Dynamite comics.
The set is currently on Kickstarter with just over two days left in the
campaign. I want to tug on your coat right quick to talk about it. I did
100 cards for the set and I am very proud of the work I did. Here are a
few to wet your whistle:
The packs of cards are now on Kickstarter, with various options to
get multiple packs, a resin statue, signed wrestler Jerry Lawler card,
additional promo cards and "choose your own sketch card artist"
option... where you can even choose me! And all packs come with sketch
cards inside! The packs are a tad expensive, but for the bang for the
buck, its a great deal... especially if you are a fan of the pinup
queen like I am! I think I am going to even get in on this one and
choose myself as the artist if I can. But I'd also love to see that
resin statue sitting on my shelf! To work on Bettie Page in a official
capacity was a dream come true. Might be my favorite set I ever worked
on! If you are a fan like me, check it out here:
The month of May was crazy. Appearances, hard work, hitting a comic con, and playing catch up the whole month. Politically things have gone insane. Things are ramping up and people are more divided than ever. I voiced my opinion on some things and lost a friend out of it. I suppose I am not alone in this. But I can't help how I feel about things going on. This whole thing in Georgia, Alabama and other places is scary beyond reason. Feels like we are slipping backward so much, that I don't know if we can pull out of it again. They say the economy is booming, but that is simply because everyone is angry and depressed about it all. So what happens when people are angry and depressed? They buy things. I know I have bought things. Thus, boom! Economy booms. Everyone is distracted and stupidly happy with their new gizmos. I don't blame them. You can't take it with you. And we are so powerless to stop the big chess match in Washington. So we try to stay focused at home and locally, keeping our own back porches swept off. The struggle continues.
I got a lot of things on my TO DO list. I got the Vampirella cards due next month. I got Patreon stories to get caught up on. Starslam 4 is almost 80 pages in and I want to have that done by the end of summer. Pleasant Life 2 is still being worked on. I want to finish the Porn Store tell all book by Christmas. (Perfect gift for Xmas don't you think?) I have a few side stuff I gotta get done for myself and others that I have promised. I have monthly commission work and three very loyal clients outside of all that to do pages for. Then to keep up on blogs, podcasts, etc... So yeah, its a busy time. But isn't it always? I wouldn't know what else to do with myself if I didn't have these forms of expression. I'm glad when anyone takes a listen. Thank you!
So far this year I finished the KISS card set for Dynamite, as well as a BETTIE PAGE card set I mentioned above. Both are either out or close to being out. I do have return cards available for these sets, I just haven't had the chance to promote them or sell them. I also am waiting for my proof back from the printer for my new erotica collection: LATE NIGHT SHORTS vol 1. Once approved, I'll get the books a week or two later. Then gotta mail out all the copies. This week I gotta finish some commissions for the Kickstarter and finish up others that are long overdue. I'm not the workhorse I used to be. Dragging my ass across the finish line. But I'll make it! I always do.
Thanks for reading, friends. Check out that Bettie Page Kickstarter above! It expires in a couple days. Jump on it, son!
Its called "LATE NIGHT SHORTS" and carries on the tradition I set with my other erotica anthology "THE EROTIC ZONE," also done on Kickstarter.
You can support the book and score yourself a digital copy, sketched in physical copy, commissions, story commissions and more! Also if you missed the Kickstarter for THE EROTIC ZONE, there are options to do that as well.
I have so much to say about this book, but I will save it for the blurb inside of it. You'll have to score one on Kickstarter to read about it.
Right out the gate for the 25th anniversary year, I have released a short story featuring MORTIN and his girlfriend from the pages of PLEASANT LIFE. Best of all: It is in color!
Being that it is on my Patreon it is a NSFW story and does feature the characters naked and doing activities... so if that is your thing, I encourage you to join my patreon today to see this and a whole year's worth of other erotic content I have made. I appreciate the love and support.
I said last time that I would get to drawing and I meant it. I did four new STARSLAM 3 pages and a few things for this thing... my new project revealed!
THE EROTIC ZONE is a smaller graphic novel that collects six erotica short stories I've done (some released digitally via Starslam Kickstarter extras, some not... All 18 Porn World Weekly comic strips (Sunday Style), 16 brand new Pinups (mostly music themed/related!) and a slew of erotica commission work that I have not shared anywhere. The book will be a homage to a certain old TV Show with me as a "host" introducing the stories in a comedic nature.
The book will be just under 100 pages, full color, Standard Tradebook size and yes, FULLY ADULT IN NATURE! (P's and V's and full penetration shown)
The Kickstarter will launch this week. There will be digital only options, signed book options, commissions and sketched book options and retailer incentives, with prices going as low as $5.
I made this book to clear the vault as it were to make room for the final STARSLAM book.... which is coming, BTW. I'm well about 3/4ths done with the artwork and the coloring is right behind that. Just gotta word balloon it and assemble it. So likely done before Xmas if all goes well. But for now, to generate excitement and funds to pay my new colorist, I offer this new erotica stand alone!
People that know me and my work through things like STARSLAM know I approach my erotica from a "female friendly" angle. The stories contained in this new book reflect that, also a playful nature and outlook on sex/sexuality and storytelling. But it is indeed erotic and full of lustful actions and characters. You'll definitely be getting your bang for your buck!
KICKSTARTER LAUNCHES THIS WEEK! Stay tuned...
Here are some sample (no spoiler) images to wet your whistle....
Hey folks! Very very soon I will be announcing some news about Starslam, my first digital erotica superhero parody comic. I have a few irons to toss around and I gotta finish the book but the art is now completely done. At least 140 pages in total!
Im putting the call out to all my artist buddies.
I have pinups from some folks as bonus material in it but theres
always room for more! So i am offering a free download of the book to
any artist who wants to do a pinup for the book. It would need to be
done by the end of november. You can do a clean drawing or something a
bit sexy. Help me celebrate a sex positive world by contributing to the
project to make it more awesome!! If you are interested, EMAIL ME HERE asap!
This book is the culmination of over seven years worth of hard work and I cannot wait for everyone to see it in its completed form. As some of you know, I did have it on the site here as a free webcomic, but it always was intended to be read as a full graphic novel at some point. Now that point is close at hand. Within a couple weeks, I will launch a Kickstarter where people can contribute and get their copy and also get original art pages, make me draw your own story involving the characters, etc. Much more news to come very soon. For now, enjoy a peek at the front cover!
This is for the folks who are fans of the NSFW Erotica Webcomics I do over on the ADULT section of the site here. So if you aren't into such things, disreguard this post. But if you want to hear the big news, keep on reading!
As some who read the strip regularly might notice, I dropped about 6 strips on Monday to finish off the chapter and said that the rest of the story would be on my upcoming Kickstarter campaign.
This is true. I dropped the rest of the strips online and I have about 50-60 pages more to go in the story. Most of the art is done for it, with about 15 pages left to pencil and ink. The rest are mostly colored and lettered. So maybe a couple months work left on these. Once completed, I am going through and I am going to recolor all the strips and mix various mistakes, spelling errors, etc. Then I am putting it all together and launching it as a Kickstarter downloadable PDF book. I have seen the success of other adults only material on KS and I am encouraged to try it out for myself.
I will have various goals and rewards such as original art, commissioned art/stories, and a bonus 2 story erotica comic, exclusive to this deal.
Once the Kickstarter is launched, I am deleting the adults only section of Idiothead.com and it will go back to the way it was before Starslam hit the scene. So no more adults only section here.
Why am I doing all of this?
Mainly, I launched Starslam and couldn't pull in the numbers I wanted. I went out for advertising and reviews and barely got any of it. I do have about 100 faithful readers every week, but its not bringing in any income or sales on my things. However, with Kickstarter, I can reach out to a larger audience and get the story in the hands of those who don't know about it yet. Plus, I can make the cash I need to fund the project and other projects of mine. Also, if successful, it will encourage me to continue the story and do another book. I really have about six books worth of story planned out, but none of it can happen if the book doesn't get an audience. Bottom line.
No failures here. Just reorganizing my game plan. I'm finding ways to let the audience support the work, as well as reach out and gain new followers. Thats the name of the game, folks.
Anyway, if you are a faithful reader, I thank you. Starslam is more than just a porno comic. Its about creativing a sex positive story that all adults can find fun in. I believe strongly in that. And you won't believe this whole thing when its all done and put together. I've really crafted something special, that I am extremely proud of! She deservers a bigger audience. She deserves her story to get told. Thats what I am doing. The ways of promotion and indie sales are changing, so I am changing along with it.
So: In the next two months, no more updates to the ADULT part of the site. Once Kickstarter is launched after the summer, I will delete that side of the site. So you got that long to dig in there and enjoy what I got up there so far. And yes, the PORN WORLD WEEKLY strips will be available in the Kickstarter book as well. I love doing that strip, I don't want to see it go anywhere. :)
Exciting stuff all around. I better get crackin' on it.
Much love, T
This year for me is all about anniversaries and This week is no exception, as I celebrated one solid year of my erotica webcomic: STARSLAM! Yes, I launched the comics on Feb 14th of last year and we passed the one year mark this weekend.
I'm quite proud of the comic and the attention it has got. I have a nice group of faithful readers that check it out every Monday when it goes live and it feels great that they keep me in mind. Its also a story that I am very proud of. When I did initial research on doing an erotica comic, a lot of the stuff I read just wasn't appealing. It was just too farcical and even at most times abusive and scary. So I wanted to create a story that promoted a sex positive outlook and have a heroine as the star. She's not a simple slut, serving the purposes of the story, but someone who is discovering themselves and their sexuality. Its something we ALL go through in life and we get to observe her journey. Its been fun, erotic, funny and now with what is currently going on in the comic, quite deadly. She's got a lot of fighting coming up and its really going to test her abilities. She's also going to learn even more about herself and her motivations as a superhero when it comes to her actions. She's learning how to be herself, in a sense. Its a grand journey.
As I type this, I just posted page/strip #53. This weekend, I inked page #97. I got about 20-25 more pages to go and the first book (or main first story) is complete and will be collected into a tradebook with expanded sex scenes and more. I do have plans for even more stories for these characters and I hope I get to tell them one day. Its a fun world to play in, thats for sure! I hope you are enjoying reading it as much as I am enjoying creating it.
The time is right to make and enjoy good erotica. When books like "50 Shades of Grey" can top best seller lists, we know that its a good time. Its a matter well beyond the "sex sells" idea. There is passion in all forms of media, even pornography. Good pornography exists if you want to search for it. I am glad to be contributing to the cause and promote a sex positive outlook on the world.
The strip following is small and I know it will take time to build and make more and more people fall in love with the story and characters. But the time will come. I know it will. Meanwhile, I'm continuing to make the best work I can with it. And I hope you enjoy the journey.
If you haven't read it yet, and are over 18, please go check it out right HERE -- Its free to read and I know you will find something in it to enjoy. Even if you aren't into pornography, just realize that it is based upon something we all deal with: finding ourselves.
Thanks to all who come back to read it each week. Spread the word! Keep the comic alive! And congratulations on one year of hard work, Starslam. Lets keep at it and keep rockin!
