Hello, all. I need to raise $385 by the 16th to renew my webhosting, including my websites, thier domains, and email services. It's been a hard year. My wife passed away in January and I am struggling with mental health issues. Anything helps. Thank you.

I've moved my website's newsletter over to Substack at thewyrdnorthwest.sub.... You can get a peek at some of the projects I'm working on. It would mean a lot if you followed me over there. Thanks.
How often should you post your comic? There's no Magic Number. Instead, I suggest FCS. Find an update schedule that enables you to post as Frequently as possible while maintaining Consistency (in quality and in schedule) and keeping each update Significant.

Perseverance doesn't mean sticking to what's not working.
Perseverance is key. But not all perseverance is created equal.

I made a free post about a project I'm working to help educate people about #comics and their depth as a medium. I'm hoping I can help get people into reading and/or creating their own comics. You can read the post at www.patreon.com/Tait
I am pleased to announce the creation of my official Patreon account! Get access to WIPs, Shoutouts, and early access to new artworks AND the webcomic!
In fact, the prologue chapter is NOW LIVE on there!

Part of me is proud and part embarrassed. 😅 (Mostly proud though.)
This very talented sibling duo(@CoinOpBooks) has a new comic project in the works. Everyone should check it out!
I can relate to this far too much. 😅
I discovered Music League recently and decided to try my own. Each round players submit songs(using Spotify) for a theme, once everyone submits a song or the deadline is reached then all the players vote on the best submissions, then the next round starts.
I stumbled across this great documentary on YouTube about the role and challenges of women in American comics. Definitely worth a watch.
I've decided to let this go. I take on more projects than I can manage at once. I do have some ideas about trying to contribute to the online comics community, but they're taking a backseat for the time being. Pacifica and its associated world need to come first for now.

Psst, my new webcomic launches on Patreon tomorrow. I'm going to share a little teaser comic here then, as a treat. Keep an eye out.
Are you growing as an indie comics creator? What have you learned? Fans, do you enjoy seeing creators grow? What do you appreciate about the process?

One of the things I feel I've learned as an indie creator is the importance of just putting something out there, even if you feel you could do better. You can't let perfection prevent you from moving forward.
