  tumblr, Facebook, and Twitter, oh goshMar 24, 2014 11:28 PM PDT | url
 
Added 1 new A* page:I want to thank people on tumblr for being nice to A* lately! I hit my record ever "Notes" (Likes & Reblogs) for an A* page over there a few pages back, breaking into double digits. Yeah that's small potatoes but hey, it's better than no potatoes. : D I'm not big on tumblr yet but I will be some day, by golly! I guess most of the nearly 200 people who follow me there found me more for the other stuff I post—Golden Age illustration stuff, space stuff, vintage Hollywood stuff, paintings, whatever else catches my interest—and they at least tolerate the weird little cropped watercolor paintings I insist on showing them every day ; ). Anyway tumblr is a lot of fun and if you like the idea of having tons and tons of cool images posted for you every day then I'd say check it out! Well at least check out my tumblr with A* and other stuff I like, and you might end up finding other tumblrs you like too but that's really beside the point for our purposes here. ; )
 
Also, Facebook! A*'s Facebook page is about to hit 300 followers, yay. : ) I've been trying a new strategy in the past week or so, basically posting links for my new pages to social media sites like Facebook during daylight hours, rather than in the middle of the night; I'm not sure that's mattering much as far as Facebook is concerned though, thanks to that weird algorithm they put in a few years back that makes it so that you don't actually get to see all the posts by pages you're following—just a certain percentage of them, and next to none, in fact, if you haven't interacted with that page recently. But how will you know to interact with it if you don't see its posts? Silly! So I think maybe people who check Facebook during these daylight hours aren't used to catching my posts anyway so they don't get shown them now? Well anyway if you do want to see them, supposedly it would help your odds if you say something or Like something on A*'s Facebook page once in a while. It would also make my day! : )
 
And A*'s Twitter is the thing I post to if just strange thoughts that need an outlet pop into my head as I'm working or whatever—as well as all the A* updates and news, of course.

Super-early heads up! I think I'm going to end the current Supermassive Original Art Sale at the end of April—so that means if you want to get any of the original illustrations behind the daily A* comics that are still available through this site (check the link in the lower left corner of each comic page—if it's gold, the art for that page is still available!), or in the episode galleries, for the super sale price of just $10, don't dither too much longer, because once the sale ends they'll go back to their regular price of $50, for the most part. Buy now to get your 80% discount! : D Once we get into April I'll probably do some posts highlighting any I think are particularly nifty that haven't been boughten yet.
