I can quite confidently say the author and the org behind it do not give a shiny toot about small press.

Sorry, I completely missed that youβd replied! I think thereβs a difference between bloodlessness and lack of interest in investing in - or even acknowledging - the workforce that is creating these all-important IPs. Itβs quite a striking and frankly unpleasant omission.

Hooray! And Iβm really sorry, Erik! Sometimes you just need to share the horror, you know? (A friend got a copy in her xmas stocking and I feel terrible about it π¬)
I promise the next one will be cheerierβ¦!

I donβt know if it was the right career move (financially speaking, definitely not!), but I do know Iβve felt better about myself/my work this year than I have for a long time, & far more able to tackle whatβs ahead. I hope youβre able to break free and kick that self-doubt square in the huevos!

Worrying about whether this is βthe right project to be doing nowβ left me completely stymied, and more & more depressed about it. I think I only broke the cycle by doing work I knew Iβd get most creative satisfaction out of (a small self-pubbed comic, a big GN series, a fuckload of CCIC scheming)

Christ Dave, I feel this in my very bones!! Iβm sorry youβve gone through this. Iβve just come out of a long period of frozen indecision about what I should be doing with my life (am I completely out? That remains to be seen!) leaving a vast wake of abandoned projects behind me...

I didnβt realise that! Thatβs probably something we should gather some stats onβ¦
The limited understanding of a lot of things in the white paper bugged me. It didnβt even seem to understand traditional publishing?! Bit of an issue for a trade body for publishers.

Anyway, itβs a v short, sweet survey - much quicker than that last one - and thereβs another prize draw to win Β£50 to spend in an online comic shop.
If you can complete it by the 23rd you will go on Santaβs nice list, regardless of the virtue of your other deeds this year!

What? No, I didn't mix metaphors. I'm talking about fish eagles, specifically.

There's a new micro-survey in town! While analysing the data we identified an area that needed more digging.
β¦It's the money, guys: we need to know more about comics incomes.
Are we being crushed by cost of living crisis or are we soaring like eagles on a wave of interest in comics and GN?
