hi Sam
At the moment you are creating a poster for me to use in the women’s prison and i love what you do. The Rooster Tails strip is great and think this would be fabulous to have in our unit as well. how is it produced ie book or posters do you have different presentations? Lat me know cost and if I can pay you online. Cheers sam
At the moment I sell individual strips as 8 x10 prints, and have a little super-basic photocopied collection of a few short pieces for sale too. But we could have a chat about the different strips you’d want, and the format and we could work out a price, if you’re interested?? I’m hoping to get some funding to publish at the end of the year… but that’ll take a bit of time i’d imagine.
Cheers heaps, it’s been super fun doing the poster for you!

just fyi, you are my celeb crush
Ha! Woah! Thanks! Don’t think I’m much of a celeb, but yay!

Hi Sam,
I was wondering if your two ziney type pieces are still for sale (Boy in a Big City and Queer 101)? And if so, are they still the same price ($9 hardcopy for both)?
Cheers,
Tobi
Yep! They surely are 🙂
I paid for a couple copies of online queer 101 but didn’t get it, halp? 🙁 I’m guessing you’ll get round to it after your hiatus though
Approve – oh no, I’m so sorry about this – what name did you order them under? I will look back through my emails and see if I accidentally missed it. So sorry about that!
sent it under christopher smith
Oh yes! I’m so sorry, I sent it last week – I must have skipped over it in my emails, and I found it the other day. I’m REALLY sorry for the delay.
-Sam
It’s arrived! Actually a while ago but it went to my parents then back to me then I forgot to say 🙂
Phew! Yay! Hope it’s ok that it went to your parents place.
I was buying one for me and one for them anyway, but it got here sealed anyhow
Hey Sam! I’d like with talk with you about doing a commission of a picture of my partner and I, I want to give it to hir for valentines day, hopefully. Ze will actually be in New Zealand on valentines day while im in the states :/ Anyways… can you let me know what your email address is so that we can chat about it? Thanks!
Cool – sounds great! (apart from your partner being so far away from you for valentines 🙁 ) – my email is sorchard (AT) ymail (dot) com – And yep that’s a Y not a G ’cause I’m weird like that 😛
Hi Sam,
This will be weird because it’s a couple of years but you used to have a gallery of your random postery work, just drawings and I didn’t have any money back then but now I do and do you still have them? I was particularly keen on the guy in the scarf. Or possibly the one which involved burning the world or something, I dunno, maybe this is a pain and 3am induced hallucination but I’m sure you had those things and I would really like to buy one or buy the right to print one for my wall.
Hey Remiel!
Ha, yeh, i still have both of those, shall i send you think links so you can look at them and see if you want a copy still?

Hi Sam!
I just read through your entire web collection over the last week, and it was fantastic! Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts, feelings, struggles, and (mostly) humor with us all so freely. I learned a lot, and and grateful for your work; so I just sent you a donation to support future projects!
Best wishes,
Chris
Thanks so much Chris – your words and your donation are both super generous
