Northwest Press has launched a Kickstarter marketing campaign for Don Gaddis’ A Home Without, a slice-of-life watercolour graphic novel primarily based on the creator’s childhood. A Home Without will likely be Northwest Press’ first new e book challenge since 2020.
According to the PR,
“This beautiful watercolor graphic novel explores the tumultuous, heartbreaking, hopeful, and tender story of River, a young boy growing up in the Bible Belt in Georgia. His father’s rages grow ever more dangerous, year after year, throwing the household into chaos… until things reach a breaking point. In the end, the children are forced to take on the emotional responsibilities that their own parents will not.”
The A Home Without Kickstarter has a $20,000 funding purpose which goals to assist the writer cowl printing prices, prepay creator royalties, help with selling the e book, and extra. Backers can order a $10 digital or $15 early chook print version ($5 lower than the common value).
Don Gaddis is an Atlanta-based author and artist who grew up within the South throughout the Nineteen Eighties. He attended the Savannah College of Art & Design and has contributed to quite a few impartial comics and magazines, Bruno Gmunder artwork anthologies, and New York’s Leslie-Lohman Museum of Gay and Lesbian Art. He has revealed two poetry books and a prose novel, and at present has two webcomics – Sparky, the Sassy Android, and Dapper Men In Love. A Home Without reportedly emerged throughout the pandemic lockdowns.
Founded in 2010 by comics author and activist Charles “Zan” Christensen, Northwest Press is a multi-award-winning Seattle writer with two targets: “publishing the best lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender comics collections and graphic novels and celebrating the LGBT comics community”. The final e book revealed – and crowdfunded – by Northwest Press was Dave Ebersole, Delia Gable, and Vinnie Rico’s Dash, a homosexual noir graphic novel which made $20,451 on a $15,000 funding purpose in July 2020.
