Advice On Publishing Your Own Comic Book

Wednesday, November 26th, 2008
As part of my promise to bring you info on how to develop and eventually publish your concepts, I did a little digging and found a video series by Dan Head on Expert Village that I thought was an excellent quick introduction on the subject matter. He has a whole series which I will post over the next few weeks but for those of you that want to skip ahead, visit him on Expert Village.
Let me know what you think by leaving a comment, I will do my best to bring your more information & opinions from others that have experience in self-publishing comics and graphic novels.

In the beginning…

Thursday, November 20th, 2008

This is not my first foray into comics, I have been a fan of comics since the age of 6. I have been enjoying them off and on for about 22 years. I have been creating them off and on since the age of 12. At 16, I once had my artwork reviewed by a local man that worked for Marvel Comics back in the 70’s and 80’s, he was impressed and told me if I kept t it I would have no problem getting in the door to Marvel.

Like the tool I am, I stopped drawing. I even stopped reading them.

Fast forward about a decade and after flirting with the idea a few times, here I am, taking the craft serious once again but not knowing where to get started or what exactly I want to do with this renewed passion.

A pal of mine suggested I make a blog and discuss the things related to developing my project, the subject matter and anything else I can think of to attract others to help me and hopefully to get help for themselves.

So here it is, INSIDE INKWEST, a blog about creativity, where it goes from here is up to us.
