Hello@garychud.com
Www.garychud.com 🙌
Also crucially we get paid when libraries buy our books! There is nothing to be sorry about ever in borrowing a fave author’s books from a library! It is one of the few “everybody wins” situations in life!
Hey beautiful people of Bluesky! I'm looking to shore up the next few months of #Comic lettering work! So, if you or someone you know needs a letterer, I would really appreciate it if you send them my way! #ComicBooks #ComicArt

It’s maybe not the point, but it warms my heart to see the word ‘comics’ being used here rather than ‘graphic novels’
Looking for a job #PortfolioDay

We received an outpouring of messages, both publicly and privately, about the loss of 404 Ink, and questions on what could be done, so we would really *love* if any literary orgs or publishers would like to talk more about donating further bursaries. Email or DM us!

Excited to have my freelance typesetting services offered on a new platform that doesn't ask me to hide the fact I also run 404 Ink for bizarre reasons (hi, Reedsy)! bookbindr.com/freelancer/l...

Over 60 published works and most days I do media and comms for Scottish Water, 9-5. I recently dropped 2 days per month for comics which has been amazing.
I’d love to do comics full time, but for now I’m enjoying the ride and the safety net Scottish Water provides.
Two new LEGO comics written by me in stores now! 🥳🥳
