I finally (got help) slapping Wordpress into shape and Runaway to the Stars is now releasing as a public webcomic! Thank you so much for your support over the years, and sticking with me while I'm slowly chewing my way through this book. I'm very excited to share this story! It'll be updating every Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday thanks to the massive Patreon backlog. Patreon will continue to update as I finish pages, which happens on a sporadic non-schedule.

If you experience bugs with the site report them to me. Some things may occasionally break, as coding problems tend to be a very "whack-a-mole" affair; and I'm still getting used to the interface.

Is your neighbour’s fancy breed Velociraptor the talk of the town?

Do you wish for the kind of social media clout only a tyrannosaur can bring, but are your house and food budget way too small for them?

Nanotyrannus is an adorable pet just waiting to be brought home to your adoring family! Fluffy and pettable, yet every bit as cool as its bigger cousins! Nanotyrannus will roll over for a tummy rub and a snuggle, but bite powdered feathers out of that fancy Velociraptor’s tail at the park! Won’t claw furniture and probably no licence needed!

Nanotyrannus is that unique pet for your home and children. They don't bark, they don't cause allergies, they're real actual miniature tyrannosaurs that will always look up to you because they don't grow big.

So flap on down to Dirty Doris’s Dinosaur Shack and come get your Nanotyrannus today! We're practically giving them away, so get a few extra as surprise gifts for the dinosaur lover in your life!

(All sales are final. Dirty Doris’s Dinosaur Shack is not responsible for any damage caused by any pet dinosaur, including but not limited to property damage, injury, mild cases of death, allergies, heavy cases of death, or fisherman's lip. All pet dinosaurs need training and experienced handlers. Most jurisdictions require pet dinosaur owners to be licensed. Dirty Doris’s Dinosaur Shack does not sell dinosaur licenses, but if someone were to ask about them Dirty Doris does have tips on how to cut through the red tape and obtain one quickly and legally for a small donation to a charity of Dirty Doris’s choosing)

funny little guy

this is rad! i am glad the hamsters are continuing on the road to absolute dominance

'While some of the armored rattiles known as shingles live firmly on dry land, and another class, the seashingles, living entirely in the open ocean, some species dwell in the numerous inland bodies of fresh water all so abundant in the Middle Temperocene, with its ponds, lakes and streams conducive to the flourishing of an assorted diversity of life. The pond turtduck (Anatochelymys atla) is one such species of freshwater shingle, foraging at the bottom of ponds with its broad flattened snout to feed on an assortment of food, ranging from algae and aquatic plants to freshwater snails, clams, worms and other invertebrates that it stores in its cheek pouches and chews when it surfaces to breathe. Found mostly across Gestaltia's tropical regions, the pond turtduck, defended by its sturdy skeleton and protective keratinous armor plates, is largely unconcerned with enemies, feeding at its own leisurely pace--though, if an aggressor proves persistent, the sharp raking claws on its flipper-like limbs acts as an additional deterrent, particularly on land where the turtduck is clumsy and unsuited for a quick getaway.'

Even more phyla of sophonts

The Augments over Those Before, sapient AI that overtook their creators due to their extra senses (that is, being able to detect light, sound and heat, unlike their purely tactile creators). As AI, they're free to take whatever form they want, but as their minds were modelled after priapulid worms (in a world where the Ediacarian "wormworld" ended up securing burrower dominance for years to come), they tend to be fine with a body roughly resembling one (with some abstraction). They have little idea of aesthetic or music and are not much for self-expression, so these days they're sparsely distributed outside of their homeworld, where vast quantities of Augments gather and communicate.

The Pillars of God, sophont loricifera caught in the midst of a microbial war. In their world, the great oxygenation event only happened halfway. Archaea and bacteria clashed, with worldwide effects as the bacteria tried spewing O2 into the air and the archaea kept pumping out sulfuric compounds. Only those not relying on high oxygen concentrations could survive, and out of all of those, the loricifera made the jump to a full dual-respiration setup: Breathing both oxygen and sulfur. The world burned several times, the microbial war grew evermore. Forests of differing physiology waxed and waned. And out of the ashes came the Pillars. Their language is nearly indecipherable and so is their thought-process. As indicated by their chosen name, they're evidently capable of being religious, though.

Sand Dragons are kinorhynchans that evolved sapience in order to better find and memorize food in vast tracts of desert. Extreme omnivores, they will devour almost anything. Like their ancestors, they go through several molts; each one having a different niche and slowly-but-surely becoming more intelligent. They can live two hundred years at most and have incredible memories, although they're a bit less creative than other species and are generally averse to change. To discover the particle accelerator, their civilization could have existed for millions of years! Juveniles are not schooled, but many end up quite educated anyways simply by choosing to commit to a task and spending significant amounts of time around people doing them. They are not welcomed in academic spaces, but are also not rejected, and this tends to apply to most Sand Dragons. They're generally apathetic towards other sophonts, including of their own kind.

Oh this looks fun, i do not typically see extinction events personified!

that and i'm a sucker for educational media with a plot

The Maid Cafe at the End of the World

(A wip intro)

6 incarnations of death are tasked with training up the newest member of their ranks, but it’s hard to make time for destiny when you’re already anxious about school, the future, and your part-time job at a cosplay cafe.

Blend-S meets Lego Ninjago with a heaping side of existential angst. Or if Tokyo Mew Mew got tired of being nice and decided to go apeshit.

Genres: Slice of life, urban fantasy, workplace comedy

The coffee shop au fanfic of a biology textbook

The title is a Douglas Adams reference

The cafe itself is called Earthly Delights

Yes, there will be supernatural time travel-y shenanigans

Every minor character is based on a fossil species. Because?? I thought it would be fun

Scientific accuracy? … Dubious at best

Ultimately hopeful

Excited to finally introduce this wip!! Will it be a series of tv scripts? A comic? Not even I know! All I know is I’ve been sitting on this idea ever since I realized “KT” sounded like it could be a person’s name, and that it’s exactly the sort of educational/tongue in cheek/hopepunk story I wish I had growing up. I hope I get to share more of this world soon!!

Starting a taglist, let me know if you’d like to be added!
