Just a friendly reminder as we go into the holidays:
Folks don't have to explain to you why they don't drink.
If you offer them a drink and they decline, don't ask them why. It's not your business.
Just offer them something without alcohol to drink instead. And move on.

Yes. The writing is not the problem these days. It’s the fear of buying/development the studios/nets seem to have, it’s the lack of opportunities; the town feels like it’s been shut down since LAST October. And we only had about 2 good weeks before then.
It's good practice, absolutely. And it's good to have an arsenal of samples when the time eventually comes (if it ever comes!) But to continue to insist that if we just write something GOOD ENOUGH someone will SEE US is at a certain point, absolutely ignoring the industry's current failures.

People who pirate books: “I just think art and literature should be FREE to everyone!”
Yes, I too would love to live in a world where art is accessible freely to all and yet artists are paid a living wage, but as this magical wagical pixie wixie land does not exist, please don’t steal from us.

For webcomics, please talk about them! Like, subscribe, tell other folks about the work you like <3
If you like an author's work, the best thing you can do is buy it. The second best thing you can do is ask your local library to buy it. Or, do both!
A reminder that the median book deal for a debut author in the UK is £7000, paid over 12-18 months. (from 2022 Society of Authors report). Some of your favourite writers are struggling. societyofauthors.org/2022/12/06/a....

some see this as claiming that sexism motivated the elimination of inkers. to be clear, sexism wasn’t the driving factor, but the gendered construction of creative/uncreative labor had the effect of making women’s jobs more expendable than men’s. it’s not conspiratorial to call the firing sexist
the reason 101 dalmations looks like that is because disney incorporated xerography (ie early photocopying technology) into the animation process. rough pencils (by mostly male animators) were copied onto the cels so that disney could fire the (mostly female) inkers. remember that art can lie to you
