The moral of the story is to always be aware of the rhythm and pace of any story you tell. The audience needs time to feel things, and you can trample good emotionality by rushing it along. It's extra work, but just an additional panel, paragraph, or page, can make all the difference (4/4)

So I sketched up a whole new page, giving the audience and Dess time to settle down from the previous panic. By the time I realised my mistake, I was already pretty tired of this project and was having a lot of trouble with colouring, but I still drew it anyway (3/4)

Originally, Dess would've taken a deep breath on page 6 and said in the next panel that she should go home, a frustrated look on her face. I realised not only did this seem cruel, I wasn't giving enough time to let the audience BELIEVE in the emotions of the scene (2/4)

Fairly amateur in the field itself but I've been writing/making/obsessing over comics for as long as I can remember

Little autobio comic, probably won't be too many of these but I've had this specific idea in my head for a looooong time

'If hard work led to success, the ox would run the farm'

It's a hard thing being an artist of any stripe in these times. Best I can do is say your work is an inspiration, I understand the frustration, and I hope you find the success you deserve

Thank you! I'm very glad that this one got a lot of nice attention, it's one I'm very proud of

I've had my share of dark days, and I know I'll likely have many more. I'll keep fighting, and I hope you and everybody else burdened by these thoughts keeps doing the same alongside me

A few years ago I decided to essentially give up making comics entirely, a medium I had loved since I was a kid. A few months back I decided to make a few fan comics and the positive response has been extremely heartening. For all those who support me, I thank you from the bottom of my heart
