Unfortunately it isn't snowing much anymore as compared to 40 years ago.

Some stranger spat on my pinned comms promo; to wit "any hack with a computer can re-slop your stuff for free, it's not worth $50 to $100."
It's worth it to *someone.* A good few folks. The offer stands. I'm not here to debate tech-fetish pigs. I draw to pay bills for now. This ain't a game.

At risk of flogging a dead horse: this whole letter is a reminder that the creative process is an end in and of itself, and vital to self-actualisation. You can’t experience BECOMING, as he puts it, by outsourcing it to ChatGPT.
In 2006 a high school English teacher asked students to write to a famous author & ask for advice.
KURT VONNEGUT - born 103yrs ago today - was the only one to respond.
His reply was a doozy.

Some of the best advice I ever heard was from @silviamg.bsky.social who said that you shouldn't set goals that require other people to do what you want. You can write a book. That's a goal. You can't control whether anyone buys it. Other people have free will.

Some BETTER LETTERER for you. And before the inevitable "that's not how I do it" replies, keep in mind that, by and large, this is how it's done in pro American comics (Marvel, DC, etc.) I've worked for all of them. More tips: blambot.com/pages/letter...

Ya'll don't give indie comic creators enough credit.
Do you know how much effort it takes to illustrate a single picture?
Apply that several times over to one comic page.
Now apply that to one person drawing all the comic pages.
Yeah. It's a lot of work.
