So, we need to talk about webtoons(the company) has done to webcomics Over the past 7 or so years, we've seen this absolute shift in expectation, migration, and stagnation in the webcomics sphere which applies to style, sustainability, and the platforms grip on readers and creators

June 2026 marks my ten year anniversary of being a self-employed artist - now I give up. Seriously. Today sucked big time. The car being just the cherry on top. I know there will come better times and I'll do everything in my power to turn the tides but I'd really could use some help now.

Textpost: Hi, I need your help.
I struggle to find the right words and I really hesitated to make this post, but long story short. I’m currently financial wise in a very dire situation. Today I got hit by a heavy bill I cannot pay on my own (car repairs and I do need the car for upcoming conventions in August) Also there soon will come up other expenses, I do not have the funds for anymore. 

Doddles of two cats in the bottom "The expenses Krümel... and Muffin"Textpost: How did this happen?
Lately conventions and sales didn’t work out as well, as I was used to (if I even got into) I lost a long term project at the beginning of the year, one day before it should actually start - which messed up my planning completely and I couldn’t replace it since then.
On top of that I have been on and off sick since early 2025 - making me unable to work fulltime … and draining my savings. Because next to being exhausting and hindering me to do my job, the now known reason was bad and needed treatment, but not that bad that you’d die off from - so… you pay everything by yourself :D At least I feel much better already - hurray. 
Textpost: What now?
I am in the process of retiring (or at least significantly shrinking down) my freelancing and am looking for an employed job, which can support me and my comic making. Something I do not want and can never give up.

However… It will be still until September before I have wrapped up all my current obligations and can make the switch and with these new bills I am so, so scared to pile up debts I don’t know how to get rid of again. It really terrifies me. (And regularly puts me in a panic freeze, making me unable to work again - doesn’t help either)

Textpost: 
So I am turning to you asking.
If you have the means to help and ever enjoyed my art or a story of mine. Can you help me?
Buy something in my Shop or Commission me. 
Maybe join my Patreon for longer time support to help stabilize me, until I figured out this situation.
If you can not - and I really do understand! I’d love a share. Everything helps.
Thank you.
Caro

Coverillustration of the webcomic "Choose - The Agony of Choice" by Carolin Reich.
A red tiefling, holding a bloody dagger looking astonished. Lizards crawling over him. Two dark hands coming from behind and resting on his shoulders. An eerie big eye flows behind him.
It has a overall very dark and eerie vibe. Muted colors.

Hewwo everyone, I had some really big expanses in the last months that used up all my savings so...I'm opening 1 - 2 commission slots! I recently set up a VGen account so until I post a proper commission sheet soon, you can just order from there! vgen.co/SoftSeaside That's it, thank you! 🫶

Hellowy everyone! So I'm currently planning and working on volume 5 of colors💚🧡 which will be released in autumn and I want to include guestart again as well! So if you want to contribute a little drawing of my boys or any other character of the comic, I'd be very happy 🥹💖 more details below~

call for guestart for colors volume 5! The key colors are petrol and orange, therefore the font and background pattern are in these colors. A snippet of the cover is visible, depicting Greg and Jae's dnd characters at a campfire resting. Therefore I also drew two silly chibi versions of these characters for this promotion post.additional info for the guestart call:
deadline: 10. August
format: a5 (upright or sideways)
fullcolored or black and white
You can also draw any character from my comic at any point of time in the story. But no NSFW please.
Have fun!

Inventory check! 📚 Nick&Slooh vol. 1 and 2: 22 and 8 left Colors vol. 1-4: 13, 10, 17, 17 left Of these run out I’m not sure how many I’ll reprint or when at all. (So if you really want one of these don’t wait too long. I’m not at many events, but working at least on making online orders possible)

Wacom recently asked me to talk about why I make queer comics, and given there are multiple bills right now floating around in congress that are effectively "we will kill your livelihood if we get a sniff of queer" I had some pretty strong, simply feelings to relay.

I'm offering some limited low priced commissions. 🌸 I was supposed to booth at a tiny local event this saturday but the weather forcast says 38°C and the building has a glass rooftop and no AC...so I'm not going. I' hoping to at least make the money for the table back so hmu if you want some art!

Happy pride month everyone! 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️💖 With the current political climate it doesn't feel like a happy time to be queer, but nonetheless we should celebrate who we are and advocate for our rights. Stand together as one community, help and support each other! We've always been here and we will prevail. 🌈💪

Illustration of my webcomic characters Jae and Greg, holding each others hand and with their free hand a progress pride flag behind their backs. The background shows a lush green hill and bright blue sky with towering clouds and sparkles. The characters are looking at each other and smiling/laughing. Greg wears a shirt in different blue/green tones and brown pants with a green bracelet like Jae's hair. Jae is wearing a t-shirt resembling the demi-sexual flag and jeans with rainbow colored hearts and a bracelet in orange/red like Gregs hair. They also wear matching necklaces. The whole picture is very vibrantly and bright colored.

My new stickers arrived👏 Got some motives reprinted but also some totally new ones! The vocaloid and catfish one are also a collab with my gf hehe I’ll bring them to cmc Hamburg in two weeks.
