This week a personal tragedy happened: my Wacom board of many years died. I now find myself in the position of no digital drawing tool, but still drawing stuff that needs to be done.
Goth Gal is great fun, but I do it all for free. So for the hours, weeks, and months of time I put in, I do not get much. I do get some money from some lovely patrons at patreon, but it is not enough to even cover the expenses of keeping up the website (I hate ads, you hate ads. I pay a premium to NOT have ads). I do NOT do this comic for money. I do this because I love doing it. I would still do it even if I never got a dime.
Unfortunately, it takes many dimes to buy a replacement drawing board. So, I am reaching out to you, the lovely internet community to see if you would be willing to donate to a good cause for some rewards you can’t get anywhere else. Here is the link to the GoFundMe campaign I have started:
https://www.gofundme.com/gothgal
And here are all the lovely rewards you can get:
(NOTE: All rewards below stack. If you donate $100 you get every reward up to that amount.)
For every donation of $1 or more, you get this month’s Goth Gal wallpaper (Gofundme won’t let me add this to rewards–just get me your email and I will get you your reward).
For every donation of 5$ or more I will give a copy of my kindle format (or pdf if you like) DRM free , high resolution Goth Gal Quarterly, Volume 2. This has not been released yet, but you can see Volume 1 at amazon here.
For every donation of $10 ore more, you get Goth Gal Quarterly, Volumes 1 and 2.
For every donation of $25 or more, you get all 3 Goth Gal Quarterly Volumes(volume 3 is in LIVING COLOR).
For every donation of $50 or more, you get a random digital sketch by me. You can even specify if you want a Goth Gal sketch or a random other sketch!
For every donation of $100, I will draw you in Goth Gal style with the new Wacom and send you the digital file in whatever image format you like.
Please consider helping me get a new Wacom. Anything you can give is appreciated.
Thank you for reading! ❤
ahh noooo!! A broken wacom!! I’ve gotten obsessed with mine now- I couldn’t do anything without it! Have you looked on craigslist for a used one? That’s where I got mine! Do you use a small one or large one? I was going to donate some but can’t get my card to work- can I paypal you $20 to help out?
I was recently thinking about adding ads on my site- the idea of actually making money drawing and writing is so appealing, but also then I feel like a big jerk. Although I do really like the project wonderful ads b/c it lets smaller people buy ads directly on sites they like (I did a small ad buy on Hark I’m a Vagrant and it made me happy 🙂 ).

She was a good Wacom for a good long time. I got her used, so I am definitely looking, but so far no dice on the new one at a used price. I use the medium sized version (large is just soooooo expensive ALWAYS).
You are so kind! I have a donate link on my support page here, but it leads to this link (https://www.paypal.com/us/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_flow&SESSION=vVJjh4xzrEdTW98ldTzA-S_LA9UaQaqRzcrVlfHMf52hZ8J08-TgTbfWk4i&dispatch=5885d80a13c0db1f8e263663d3faee8d64ad11bbf4d2a5a1a0d303a50933f9b2) which is a paypal donate link. 🙂
I’ve never heard of Hark or Vagrant (assuming that is a thing since it’s capitalized). I have only ever run a single ad campaign on facebook–but facebook are kind of jerks because I paid for an ad, but my posts only reach 10% of the people who clicked it. So yeah. NOT. A . FAN.
I hope you are having fun in Barcelona!!!!!
