You clicked this tab? I guess you'd like to know some stuff about me then?
Well, okay.
My
name is Kerry Lynn Thompson; I'm also known as Kytri to most of the
internet and a significant number of my meatspace friends. I drew and
wrote all the comics on the site. I'm originally from Halifax County,
Virginia, but currently live in Raleigh, North Carolina. My birthdate
is March 23, 1984.
Oh and I'm female, some people don't pick up on that from my name.
I
majored in psychology in college. I don't have any formal art training,
but I've liked drawing since I was very young and have been attempting
to make comics since I was about 11 or 12. I also like video games,
sewing, and making espresso drinks. Making espresso drinks also
happens to be my day job. The vast majority of the money I make off the
comics goes to keeping the site online and getting books and things
printed.
Generally I'm kind of a shy person and don't like
talking about myself much. However, if you would like to know more
about me or any of my work you can ask questions anonymously on
Formspring or via the ask box on my
Tumblr. I also have an account on
Twitter, and
Google Plus, and I can be emailed at secretcollect at gmail.com
General art usage FAQ thingy:
Sometimes
people ask to use my art for things. I find this surprising but also
pretty cool. When it comes to derivative works like fanart or
fanfiction, that sort of thing is always allowed, regardless of content
or quality. Small things like forum avatars are also always allowed.
If
you want to make edits to my art such as photomanipulation type stuff
or a translation of one of the comics into another language, that is
also fine but please also credit me as the original artist. A simple
note mentioning me and a link to one of my sites is sufficient. If you
just want to repost my stuff elsewhere that's totally cool, but again,
leave credit, and preferrably don't direct link to my images. Instead
download the image and reupload it to some webspace you own or have
access to.
As for things I don't like. I don't like people
selling my work and I don't like people claiming they made it. Don't do
that. That's like a thing that jerks do.
Basically I'm cool with any usages that's not stealing or dishonest.
