Hello Wonderful Weirdos!

Happy Autumn! October is my favorite month. Besides celebrating my birthday, October is when I feel most creative, too.

This month, Weirdness Sticker Club and Hoarder members will be receiving the “Peanut Butter and Jellyfish” postcard and two kinds of “Swim, Jim!” stickers—one holographic!

A few important announcements:

— Stay tuned for the big SWIM, JIM! cover reveal on October 15th!!! You’ll get a sneak peek at the book and have the opportunity to pre-order your copies, too. Wiggle-Waggle-Wee!

— There will be an “If UR Stabby” book launch and book signing at The Wandering Jellyfish Bookshop in Niwot, Colorado on Saturday, October 30th at 4pm. If you’re in the area, stop by!

— Along with the “If UR Stabby” signing event, there will be a 13 painting “Stabbified Thrifts” show and auction. Proceeds will benefit The Trevor Project. You can make an offer from wherever you are. The paintings will be listed on e-bay starting October 13th– my birthday! Auction winners will be announced at the end of the event on October 30th.

— I have two new books coming out with Simon & Schuster in 2023! “Worm & Caterpillar,” an early reader graphic novel, is coming out in Spring of 2023, and “Bitsy Bat, School Star,” a picture book, comes out in Summer 2023. I’ve begun art on both books, and I know you’re going to love these characters!

And now for the tough news.

Because my publishing career is growing, I’ve made the hard decision to retire the Weirdness Sticker Club. ((SOB!)) I began the club at the beginning of the pandemic as a way to celebrate creativity and share joy during dark times. It’s been my absolute pleasure to create art for you—you’ve kept me afloat!—and I’ve appreciated your support more than I can say.

I will be closing the Weirdness Sticker Club and Hoarder tiers at the end of this month, but you are more than welcome to support other tiers. (https://www.patreon.com/kazweirdness) I will also keep the account open and who knows? Perhaps there will be more kinds of weirdness coming your way in the future!

I hope Patreons have felt the love I stuffed into every mailing, and I very much hope you will stay in touch. And besides, you’ll find it very hard to forget me now that every surface in your home is covered in my tiny, sticky art. My evil plan is a success! Mwha ha ha!

Love,

Kaz
