I wanted to take quick second to say thank you to everyone that supports us financially. Indie comics outlets like ourselves couldn't exist without people helping us keep the lights on. We are forever grateful for that support. πŸ™

"Artists peak at 30", "30 under 30", "by 30 you should" ridiculous. Arts industries capital craves young people to exploit and burn out. It doesn't want older artists thriving and guiding the young. It also doesn't want artists to exist. Stop letting cannibals tell you you only matter on a plate.

Dispatches from MN: it's getting really hard, guys. The media has left, the donations are drying up, and ICE is still here kidnapping people. It's hard not to be resentful that other people have the option of setting this aside for.other things.

Your work will take exponentially longer to make than prose, and will garner a fraction of the attention. And you may work for ten years on something someone can blast through on a Saturday afternoon. You need to be OK with that, or you'll never be happy.

You are in a niche of a niche, and the potential audience is sized accordingly. If you manage to find a way to support yourself exclusively off of your comics output, that's awesome, but you've beaten the odds.

Don't go in EXPECTING to beat the odds.
