nerdgoggles asked: So did you say you go to MCAD?

yep! i’m graduating in fourteen hours!

mappuccino asked: Hi! I just discovered your comics and they're awesome! I was wondering if I could draw Monster Pop's characters for fun or even make fanarts. Could I? :B Thanks for reading this though!

ahh, thank you! and yes, omg, please do, i would love that!

starrcandi asked: Absolutely love Monster Pop! and I had seen your shop on society6 and wanted to ask you if your picture of George and Marina might be hinting at something for the future? Or do they just have a really strong bond, moreso than George and Franny (since there is no George and Franny merch).. or am I just really reading waay too much into this. haha <3 luv you and your beautiful art & voice & face & everything about you~

that picture of george and marina was commissioned by my friend michelle! since she ships them :3c

hungrydeathbleeds asked: Where can i read your Redden? Or can i? how?! D:

or you can just wait until tomorrow, when i’ll be posting the full comic on my website, mayakern.com!

rozarinight asked: hi there, i was wondering if you ever plan (or if you already did) selling your redden comic in stores. I just really love the story, the art, everything. It's just simply amazing and i would buy it if its sold in stores

ahh thanks!

at some point i would like to print and sell redden, but it will probably be through kickstarter or indiegogo or something similar and not through stores

katzupan asked: Hello! I just recently saw your project/kickstarter and it looks fabulous! Congrats on exceeding your goal! I'm going to be doing a kickstarter soon and wanted to know if you had any advice on the tiers, and where you got your comic printed? I'm making a comic myself and any advice I could get would be super helpful! I love your art and your stories, truly inspiring work. I wish I could of backed your project when it was running!! Best, Kat.

ah thanks!

i haven’t printed the book yet, but i’m almost there (so close)!

as for reward tiers, i just tried to think of merchandise that i could make without learning new skills, how long each piece of merchandise would take, and how i wanted to price the time and materials it would take to create them! 

good luck!

tropicalfreshloofa asked: Hey Maya, I love how well your new site for the comic works and i love the new save feature. :) Which will come in handy if I ever get behind and don't want spoilers! Buuuttttt one thing I want to comment on is the color of the back forward buttons. I love how they match the theme but they match a little too well. It was very hard for me to find them at first. Any how! Love your comic! :3 Love your work! I am a total fangirl. Thanks for producing so many wonderful things! :3 -Lucy

thanks for letting me know! i was worried that might happen, i guess it just showed up way better on my screen, haha

wowat asked: Hello! Monster pop's site is down D:

yes! i’m actually in the process of changing the site! i’m really sick of dealing with wordpress so michelle is helping me get a new one together!

sorry i didn’t announce it, i wasn’t expecting to do it tonight, but the timing worked out!

ifuckingloveselena-deactivated2 asked: is monsterpop going to make me cry. really hard. because i think it is already.

chapter one ends with ice cream! does ice cream make you cry?

dayknight asked: I missed your Kickstarter and was wondering when/are you going release more?

hi! i don’t have the books printed yet but i am planning to sell copies online after i do!  i would guess that that will happen within the next 2-3 months!
