New print: The Unseen

The Unseen, a bedtime story for ghosts is now available as print.

Just a reminder of other places to find me or receiving news about The Secret Knots: There’s a Facebook page to comment and post other content if you want to. You can also add me to facebook if you want, though most posts are in spanish. También The Secret Knots en español, en Facebook. Google Plus? Allright, though I’m only starting to use it. On Tumblr I post occasional bonus artwork. On Twitter, notifications of new comics and feedback. Koalla Wallop, where you’ll find other comics too and their forums. I like letters! My address at gmail is gemeloperverso. And remember: every time you share the comics on your networks these ghosts clap and dance. See you around!

Facebook page

There’s a Facebook page for The Secret Knots. You can keep up there with new comics, comments and feedback from readers. Since I set it up I lost the former ‘I like’ button, so if you want you can show your appreciation with that little thumb up right here on the sidebar facebook thing. Hope you like the new comic, guys!

Plans

I’ve got a question for The Secret Knots readers, a call for suggestions. Eventually I really would like to go to some comics or indie/alternative press/online comics event in North America probably, where most you are. It would be great to get to meet up with some of you and hang around in some comics convention. This would be probably at some point next year. There’s a lot of planning involved of course but I suppose a good starting point is asking WHERE. Do you recommend a specific Con? Thanks.

Feedback and prints

Posted on January 19, 2011 by Juan

There is a review of The Secret Knots in Io9 (as some of you already know) that has brought many new readers and great feedback overall. It’s a very comprehensive point of entrance that links to different comics in the archives, so check it out. Thanks to the reviewer and Io9! Plus there’s plenty of interesting things to discover: following the ‘magical realism’ tag I met this excellent short story about a bottomless stair, for instance.

In other news, I’m opening the Store page with links to prints of some comics you can buy through Imagekind. For now there are a few that have been requested but I’ll be adding more later. Secret Knots desktop wallpapers are also in the Store. I look forward to hear from you if you buy prints, it’d be great if you could tell me if you are satisfied with them, thanks in advance! Right now they’re having a 22% off sale…
