We're already almost at the halfway point of Pride Month, and well, the Duck has an event going!

About a week in June, and seeing everything happening where people are being treated terribly (to put it mildly) for just being true to themselves and who they are, it occurred ...

So I slacked a lot in getting interviews prepared for our awesome webcomic artists here on the Duck, but that is going to be remedied!

I'm trying to find a way to establish regularity for all the features for showcasing DDers and their webcomics that I've been handling ...
