There's something so...final about the way David leaves the hut, with his demeanor, and Leilani in the background looking after him, sad...upset...

And then she whispers, "I love you..."

THE FEELS, THE FEELS! <3 *^^*

Splash Story this month has been decided! *^^*

Well, it took some prying, but I received three ideas from folks.

Bondage sex, deep sea masturbation, and fun with tentacles.

And since we have three ideas, I'm all for giving all three girls of "The Depths" the spotlight this month - as they share a rousing tale of "campfire" stories, describing in their own words, how they lost their virginity. *^^* 

Devilishly clever, yes? *^^*

"The Depths" - Page 44 (WIP)

Honestly, the romance and drama in this comic, combined with the erotic undertones and deadly encounters... *happy sigh*

We've got a masterpiece here, people. Bear with us, and watch us make furry history.

I'm not kidding. *^^*

Mid-month Newsletter: September

Alright, I’m really sorry to be a bit behind, everyone. Still fighting a nasty cold that’s keeping me a bit out of sorts and waiting for relief. That’s the problem for me, in my health, if Riff gets a cold, I get it twice as bad. It’s so not fair… Anyway…

Still waiting on more story ideas from you all. ^^ Just shout them out and let me know what you want to see. We have 12 days until the end of the month, and I still owe you guys a story. So...let me have them, please. <3

We are now fu...

I'll post the newsletter tomorrow, my friends. <3

I spent a bit of the day fighting a cold. Going to sleep soon and hopefully sleep it away. *^^* *hugs*

This page, I hope, spells out why I consider myself a good writer. *^^* 

There's a lot here. Legends, culture, a mother's memory, a service, a calling, a threat, and danger. 

All in one lovely page with a lot of beauty and romance. 

Sometimes, I just nail it. <3 Kudos to my fabulous artists for this scene!

Still seeking story ideas... ^^

Cast your votes for a new "Splash" story I can write this month.  ^^

I'll have a "news letter" post to share tomorrow, our mid-month status, the comic, and all sorts of cool things - including a possible NEW TIER for animation fans! <3

Details soon!

I'm trying really hard to get us back to Monday afternoon updates. *^^* Just bear with us, it takes some time to work with new people, no matter how amazingly talented they are. 

So David reveals a bit more, not just about himself, but Jamie too. Seems the reporter smells a story, and unwillingly he's dragged poor Leilani into the mix. 

The story is Jamie, yes...

Please be patient, my wonderful supporters. This story is about to get even more interesting very soon! <3

Absolutely loving this so far. <3

A lot going on in this page, and more info is coming in the final version, don't worry! <3

Riff and I are just back from Fursonacon in Virginia Beach and had a wonderful time. *^^*

Plus... we shot up to #80 Most Read webcomics, and we have 125 readers a week now! It's happening, can you feel we're on to something big yet?

I've already talked with Twinkle-Sez extensively about all of the concerns that were noted, and he's going to try a little harder to work more with ABlueDeer's character designs.  We're also figuring out layouts, panel shapes, fonts, and other things. I realize this is still new to everyone. Just please be patient while we work out a few details, and I'm sure the next page will go much better. <3

I'm just so glad to see Malana and Kalea back, even if briefly. *^^*

And now, to the scene:

What is David about to tell Leilani,...

"The Depths" - Page 41 (WIP, and WOW...) <3

I thought I'd give you all one more sneak peek. *^^*

We're making some notes for Twinkle-Sez for future sketches, not to worry. Smaller breasts, better defined feet. This was his first time with us, and obviously there's an orientation. *^^*

We really hope you're impressed so far... <3

"The Depths" - Page 41 (WOW)

So, here we are, faithful supporters, I'm very pleased to post this next "WIP" (yes, I typed "WOW" in the title because just...wow...*^^*) this time from a brand-new artist added to the team, Twinkle-Sez. I'm VERY hopeful this new style will be accepted, and that we'll still have your support. <3 

( Yes, the ears are being addressed and fixed. *^^* )

I'm very confident that this new direction is good for everyone involved. ABlueDeer is now free to pursue his personal comics and give more time to them, and we have a big-name arti...

"Splash Story" #5

Alright, so as promised a beautiful, intimate tale of friendship and rescue. I tried very hard to bring out the characters more here than I have in the webcomic, and I still kick myself a little for not getting the girls more involved until this point. 

Page 41 marks their brief return, with a brand new pencil artist at the helm. I'm excited and a bit nervous how people will respond to the "new look". 

Anyway, enjoy this freedive adventure with Malana, Kalea, and Leilani, chosen by the majority of voters. <3

Splash Story #5 is coming today! <3

I apologize for getting this out on the last day of August, and I still have another story to share with you all, about David and his life on board the Night Wind, before he met the beautiful princess Leilani - and his destiny. <3

I'm going to be bold and open up story ideas for September now, so everyone has more time to get involved. After all, these stories are yours exclusively. I have as yet not posted a single one publicly anywhere. *^^*

This is not me forming an unfortunate "paywall" for people who can't join so they ...

Page forty. When you look at it, it's really not much of a comic yet, is it? ***^ I mean, it's barely anything. Leilani and Thierry make love, she confesses her love to him, and all of a sudden we're taking readers on a whirlwind adventure of romance and danger in the sea otter's past. 

Have you noticed something else? Riff picked up on this, but ever since Leilani recounted "No more words..." and pounced David for sex in the undersea cavern, there's really not BEEN anymore words from the narrator! *^^*

So...I'm toying with the ide...

"The Depths" - Page 40 (sketch)

Well, I'm pleased and honored that ABlueDeer stuck by me as long as he did, and I know he'll continue to do amazing things. Next week, a brand new page featuring pencil work by Twinkle-Sez will be featured, and I hope fans are ready. <3

"Splash Story" #5: Updated poll

By a whisker so far, it looks like people would really love a story featuring the girls going pearl diving, and something traps one of them, and the three rely on one another for "buddy breathing" until she can get free. Amidst all the breathing for one another, of course, they get a little hot and bothered and decide to stay undersea to relieve themselves with some pleasure. *^^*

So...I'll let voting go on today and tomorrow until midnight Monday night, giving me time to write this, and my artist time to ink the image. *^^*

It's an int...

"Splash Story" #5 Poll

So I would love to do something with the three girls, Leilani, Malana and Kalea.

I'd like to know what I should write about them.

Opening up for suggestions now, and remember, your suggestion also counts as votes, so think about what you really would love. 

Also, someone can "love" your vote and add their votes to yours! So, for instance, if someone "loves" your comment, it adds a vote. If the person responds that they loved your comment, or seconds the vote, I'll add their vote totals to yours, ^^

Okay...

I really do apologize again for the delays lately. KJ has been having some back problems of late that debilitate time to time, and I don't want to rush perfection. *^^* Plus, we're getting ready for September and a whole new artist. <3

** Important News! ** (please read *^^*)

With the last bits of "The Depths" website still to go, I think I can safely share the link now with everyone, and welcome you to the new home for the web comic. 

http://www.thedepthscomic.com/

ABlueDeer was very happy with this, because it now allows the comic to go where it needs to go, to get full exposure and attention from the masses. <3 It's been my aim all along to get "The Depths" mainstream, and i'm so grateful to ABD for giving me that stepping off ...
