ofmd grew its following thanks mainly to word of mouth, got renewed because its fans loved it so loud and hard, and nearly two years after its inexplicable cancellation is showcased in the “popular tv” category on hbo max. that’s some powerful art.

Good news! Daisy's restraining order was extended for another year!

Bad news! There's like $5k of lawyer fees she has to pay. This is more than we anticipated or prepared for.

Jenn Lee overboard! @self-induljennt.bsky.social · 1d

Sometimes I remember worrying that I was embarrassing when I started sharing my fanart. I fell so hard & so fast for our pirates. Then a pro comic artist I really look up to just out of the blue told me my OFMD stuff was "beautiful work". It was like he knew I needed to hear it right at that moment.

It's #AudioDramaSunday and I'm blown away to announce that we leapfrogged over 75% last night. Less than a quarter to go before we fund--we're almost there y'all!

Today's fun fact is about our last special, which should get you hyped about our upcoming special, Mazed and Confused!

igg.me/at/anas3

In the wedding special, Ana's name is a double reference. First off, it's the abbreviation for the show which I thought was fun. But mainly, she's named that as a reference to Anastasia, giving a hint to her origins.

The aim of this project is to ensure Filipino artists, who are historically overworked and underpaid (like, $50 a week underpaid) can get paid for their art, which makes up half of this Kickstarter's goal!

The other half is to cover printing and delivery~

Help us hit 20% before the weekend!
