Not sure if you’re psychic or you’ve just been following me long enough to know that what I’m writing literally has a gorilla in it πŸ˜…

I had to completely restructure the comic script I’m working on and it gave me an extra page that I wasn’t expecting to have. Now the question is what do I do with it?!

Sometimes you think a script is gonna go a certain way, but then once you’re done you realize you were wrong and need to choose between going forward with something meh or rewriting 80% of the thing you thought was done.

Rewriting is always the right choice.

Kickstarter United is on strike! We are not asking for a boycott! Creators & Allies: Please continue to support & use the platform swipe for ways to show your solidarity

Why We're Striking
A codified 4-day work week.
We simply want to protect the way we've been working for over 3.5 years. The 4dww has proven benefits, such as increased productivity and improved employee satisfaction. It's part of what makes Kickstarter a special, innovative place to work.
Fair pay for our lowest-paid workers.
We're fighting for livable minimum salaries for roles that are undervalued by the market but crucial to keeping Kickstarter running. We believe none of our workers should struggle to make ends meet.

I’m looking for recs for a digital music distributor other than @distrokid.com I’m having a technical/billing issue with them and they are being completely unhelpful.
