Let’s Play April Grove Together Part 2!

Hello, Cozy Gang!

I edited and uploaded my second April Grove VOD to my Youtube channel! We continued our journey as the latest forester to move into the calming and welcoming community of April Grove. In this stream we were trying to collect some Willow logs for the next reward from our lovely water nymph April! We shipped a ton of logs, met some new characters, and discovered that there might be a budding romance in between two of the npcs!

In this cozy RPG game you are a cute little forester who is collecting logs for April and the world! The characters are fun and cute. I will be playing this more next Monday on Twitch. The game is available on Steam now so you can check it out for yourself!

Game Synopsis

Undertake your new job as a forester in a mystic and peaceful wood. Chop, gather, level up and unravel the expansive forest and its splendor at your own pace, one log at a time!

Next Twitch Stream for April Grove will be on Monday, July 14th.

Cytoplasm Speed Draw Video

My Twitch subscribers can get a complimentary 15-minute sketch request per month. They can bank up to an hour or continue a previous sketch request prompt. I also allow viewers who gift subs to bank time as well. Cozy Gang friend FossilJockMatt was kind enough to subscribe and gift a bunch of subs for my birthday so he was able to redeem a full hour sketch and he chose a sketch of his original character Cytoplasm! I absolutely love his character designs from his comics including the wonderful Mixten Genetics so I was delighted to draw her!

This video is a sped-up version of my Twitch Stream on May 20, 2025! If you are interested in obtaining a sketch for yourself you can subscribe on my Twitch Channel or join the Cozy Gang Sketch Club on Ko-Fi!

I highly recommend checking out this wonderful sci-fi webcomic and the other prose stories on his website. You can follow Matt’s art progress and video game streams on his Twitch channel! If you enjoy my goofiness and humor then you will love his as well!

Hello, Cozy Gang!

Spring is springing around here! The weather is wild, hovering between warm days and chilly nights, and blooms of pollen mixed with windy gusts won’t stop me from seeing my Cozy Gang on my weekly streams!

Cozy Gang Book Club!

I have a new initiative to talk about starting in the month of March, and that is the Cozy Gang Book Club! The concept for the Book Club is simple, every other month the community suggests and votes for two books – one graphic novel and one prose novel – and I’ll have open discussion about the two books during that month’s Community Share Stream. For the first Book Club Month this March we’ve chosen Dungeon Crawler Carl by Matt Dinniman* and Teen Titans: Raven by Kami Garcia and Gabriel Picolo! This month’s Cozy Community Share Stream is on March 26 at 6:30PM EST and I’m very excited to do this with everyone!

* Dungeon Crawler Carl is currently backordered on Bookshop.org but interested parties can order it on the Biblio links on the Bookshop page in the link above to purchase it from other independent book stores!

Hello, Cozy Gang!

Happy Holiday Season!

Welcome to the start of the holidays! I had my final show of the year – The Annual Geekery Market – on November 9th, and it was such a great time! It was wonderful to see all the great creators from the Carolinas and beyond, and I was so grateful to everyone who came by and picked up some goodies! Big thank you to Joey and Matt and the Guardians of the Geekery for continuing to put this amazing event on again this year, and I really look forward to doing it again next year!

Ren Fest Fun!

The boys and I (including my nephew) enjoyed a Sunday at the Carolina Renaissance Festival in Huntersville, NC last Sunday and we had a outrageous time! Our favorite things to see were all the costumes, the food, the music, and most of all, the Joust! The brave knights battled for the favor of the Queen, and there was even a bit of “bloodshed” at the end! It was so much fun!

I truly am excited about the prospects for shows for next year, and I have a lot of great things in the works! Stay tuned to see what’s coming soon!
