like...writers...you can't rail against A/I books then turn around and use A/I covers artists, why would you denounce A/I art but casually use ch@tgpt same goes for A/I voices and music we are ALL at risk of getting exploited -- we shouldn't be sabotaging each other and making it easier for them

WEBCOMIC QUESTION: folks who have serialized comics online for free, how did you get people to read them? Esp with social media becoming increasingly useless and diffuse. Particularly curious re: folks who got there w/o a healthy existing readership. Thank you!

My ideal comic book structure is that we get a slim, beautiful 48 page comic book every year. Beautifully drawn with patience and care put into each page by an artist who slept for nine hours every night

For #FolkloreSunday theme of cats: in Bugis mythology of South Sulawesi, Meong Palo Karrellae is the name of tri-color cats; guardians of crops loyal to Sangiang Serri, the rice goddess. In La Galigo epic poem, the goddess judged humans from the way they treated a stray tri-color cat. 1/2

Every artist I know is really struggling right now. Financially, emotionally, their confidence, in general. If you like an artist's work, support them any way you can. Buying their stuff or subscribing to their Patreon is great, but words of encouragement are also incredibly helpful.

Make comics. Actually make them and FINISH them and MOVE ON and make another one and another. Start small. Make a one panel comic. Make a one page comic. Make a two or three page comic. Make a five page comic. Now you've really learned something! Keep going.

Say what you want about Webtoon, but it has an inbuilt user base and makes it easy for people to find your comic and have it grow organically. I have no form of social media following anywhere, but my comic has naturally gained about 120k subscribers over the last 5 years despite infrequent updates.

REMINDER TO NOT TALK ABOUT BEING AT PROTESTS ONLINE. You do not need to "prove" you were there, it puts you and others in danger. Only tell people in person when you go for safety.
