YAY! I’m back! Happy New Year! I hope you all had a great New Year. Here’s to 2012 being a better year for “Imy” in terms of NO ARM INJURIES and more :)

Also, “Imy” is one of more than a hundred female webcomic characters featured in the massive snowball fight wallpaper over at Comic Creators for Freedom. Which is a very important fundraiser against human trafficking. I will post more about this tomorrow. But, for now, follow that link and read up!

First let me say a couple of things. Within the next few days I few important posts will come up. The first will be with pre-orders for BOTH Volumes 1 & 2 which I will be selling at NYCC. But I will be putting up some pre-orders here FIRST so that you can be guaranteed one AFTER NYCC. The second post will be a full info post about NYCC for those who are coming. So stay tuned!

Re: Today’s comic…

When I worked as a barista, I always amused myself with the crazy drinks people ordered. Cherry’s order here is very simple compared to some of my regulars. I never had a problem making the crazy drinks. They didn’t take any more effort than the ones on the menu. But I always found it amusing how… em.. attached people were their super special drink combinations. People even had their favorite baristas who they would ask for specifically to make their drinks, or they wouldn’t buy them.

This was 9 years ago now. I wish I would have kept a journal of my experiences as a barista. I know there’s a lot of funny stuff I can’t remember.

I keep meaning to add the pronunciation of “Imy” on the front page here, somewhere obvious, and keep putting it off any forgetting. It’s not something I thought about much when I started the comic.

The short story of where “Imy” got her name is that it’s from me. It was my nickname growing up in half of my family. So, since I hardly get called that anymore, I decided to pass that on to my comic character. And I used the pronunciation that my family always used. Didn’t cross my mind that almost who came across the site would call her “Ai-mee.” :)

Also, I had no idea that this was an actual name. There are SEVERAL “Imy” fans who are also named “Imy,” which I’ve realized from the “Imy” facebook fan page. And THAT, I think, is VERY cool. For those of you who have this name, how do you pronounce it? I’m curious :)

And so that’s the end of Triple Trouble… or is it? And what is Imy meant to be? I guess we’ll find out eventually… but for now, this draws to a close :)

Now, how would you like to get your hands on some cool stuff? Especially Imy related?

First up, Tom Racine of Tall Tale Radio is trying to get to NYCC (woo!) to do a bunch of great NYCC related interviews. To help himself get there, he’s put up a donate page with lots of SUPER COOL donation gifts. And a couple of them are Imy related! You can check out the donation page HERE, and scroll down to see those Imy items. One donation gift is Imy Vol 1.0 PLUS a personalized sketch… another is for a personalized sketch of your two favorite Imy characters! Each of those gifts are for the first person to go get them. Besides that there are loads of other great prizes, and even a raffle for an amazing TH3rd World comic book package! So go there NOW!

Second, Original Imy Art is FINALLY up for sale in the web shop! If you go HERE, you’ll see 3 original and one-of-a-kind watercolors up for purchase. More will be available over time. So go check that out as well!

And now I’m off to bed!!
