Mishaps in Collecting

Mishaps in Collecting

As you can see from the picture, I had a mishap in collecting this week. The item came damaged with the bubble that contains the action figure mostly peeled away from the card.

Now, if I was the kind of collector that opens their stuff and puts in on display, it’d be no big deal. But I’m an in-package displayer/collector. I want my figures and their packaging to be as mint as possible.

The good news is the replacement figure is on its way as of this writing. I might even have it by the time this blog post airs. This figure for sure is getting a shorts video. Anyway, gotta make sure I ship the damaged one back. Mishaps in collecting happen.

Later.

Self-publishing: Death and Taxes

Posted on March 20, 2024 5:00 am by A.P. Fuchs

Self-publishing: Death and Taxes

Okay, to read about the death part, check out ZOMTROPOLIS: A RECORD OF LIFE IN A DEAD CITY. Plenty of death in there and plenty of zombies too.

But taxes. Tax season is upon up so the following is just an opinion. I am not a tax expert nor an accountant. Please obey the tax laws of your country and province/state.

The good news for self-publishers is, if you’re set up as a business (which you should be seeing as how you’re selling stuff for money), it can open doors to all sorts of deductions and write-offs.

The funny thing about taxes is you want to make as much cash as you can throughout the year but come tax time, on paper, you want to legally make as little as possible. By setting yourself up as a business, any funds spent on it could be deductible, depending where you live which means you either pay less taxes or get a bigger refund.

In Canada, we can deduct things like office supplies, printing costs, service fees, food, and a bunch of other stuff as long as the expense was related to your business and is allowed to be deducted.

Taxes for the self-publisher is a massive topic and there’s no way to give a firm guide here on this blog because readers come here from all over, but I do suggest looking into the above as per the tax laws of your place of residence. It’s hard enough to make a decent income off your art. Might as well help yourself keep more of your earnings if possible.

Think about it.

Hotwheels Batman 1989 Batmobile Showcase

Posted on March 18, 2024 4:35 am by A.P. Fuchs

Hotwheels Batman 1989 Batmobile Showcase

It was bat-mania everywhere when I was a kid. The 1989 BATMAN movie defined a good part of my childhood. These 1989 batmobile hotwheels cars are super cool to have as it’s kind of a way for me to go in the way-back machine and relive some childhood superhero fun.

Michael Keaton as Batman shocked the world and the batmobile they gave him set the tone and style for all other batmobiles to come.

Welcome to my collection.

Odd Hunting

This is it! The Season One Finale of THE REALM OF HEROES AND MONSTERS: STORY TIME with A.P. FUCHS podcast! 30 episodes! 30 stories! (Well, actually, 31 because this episode is a DOUBLE!)

To kick of the show, Fuchs gives the background as to the whole superheroes and monsters thing and why those are the main two genres he writes in which, in turn, are the stories shared with you. The answer might surprise you.

Fuchs then gives a quick pep talk on the artist’s voice (any craft) prior to delivering a SECOND tale for this final episode. This one is a personal story and one from way back in Fuchs’s career.

And, of course, as always, stick around until after the credits for a quick special something.

See you in Season Two!

Still About a Girl: Poetry Book

Posted on March 12, 2024 5:00 am by A.P. Fuchs

Still About a Girl: Poetry Book

Sometimes all you have left is a memory, a time when you found yourself, lost yourself, found yourself again . . . in someone else. And sometimes they leave you anyway, but in the end what they’ve given to you is more than what you could have ever asked for. And though they’re gone you have lived because of them and become so much more. You have experienced what most go through their whole lives without, that four-letter word that impacts the world greater than anything else.

Love.

This a poetry book that will touch your heart and your soul.

Avaible in paperback at:

Amazon (US)

Amazon (CAN)

Amazon (UK)

Barnes and Noble

Available in eBook at:

Coming soon.
