Thanks very much! Thatโ€™s all really good to know. So far Iโ€™m making good progress, weโ€™ll see how the scripting goes!

Layout and storyboarding is something I find quite daunting, which is why Iโ€™ve been stuck on the planning stage for so long anyway. I also keep changing plot elements and I really want to finally pin something down story-wise

Iโ€™ve yet to actually pin down the exact story and all the fiddly bits that occur in the middle, which makes me feel like I should write as novel first and then add pictures later. Iโ€™ve been debating a โ€œShunaโ€™s Journeyโ€ approach which is midway between gn and novel anyway so might be best option?

Thinking on this again because my intentions are to finally script a graphic novel Iโ€™ve had in my brain for 4 years. But, Iโ€™ve been flip flopping over whether to challenge myself to write the comic script or just write the story in full like a novel and break down from there

What do you mean youโ€™re expected to calculate the cost in real time!! What the hell!!

Havenโ€™t bought anything from the Shortbox Comic fair yet this year. Any bangers I should prioritize?

This has been prompted by me reading IndieWireโ€™s ode to the White House cinema, which is now also gone

Not to America post but my brain canโ€™t comprehend how theyโ€™re allowed demolish entire parts of the White House like is there not a system to protect historically significant buildings how is that allowed

Curious to know if NaNoWriMo exists in some shape or form this November? I know the website shut down but Iโ€™d still like to do some form of informal version to kickstart some projects

Been triple-jobbing for the last while and the stress thatโ€™s putting on my brain is not good unsurprisingly but one of the festivals I work for (KIFF) is finally on this week (!!) finally (!!)

Btw these guys are in a little band and they like to practice in the rain because the acoustics are much, much better!! They swear by it!!

Nothing yet as hoping to finish the monthly challenge first, then Iโ€™ll figure out what I can print. Thank you for the interest though!

Love the idea of live drawings based on the kids suggestions, that must have been so fun!

Been listening to @gra-phite.bsky.social while working lately and itโ€™s so lovely and chatty. Didnโ€™t realise how desperately I wanted an art podcast thatโ€™s actually about the Irish art scene (also thank you for the shoutout!!)

Having 70% of my income decided by various arts co decisions is some laugh honestly Iโ€™m squinting at that budget allocation with 50 million prayers and Iโ€™m not stressed at all. Honestly.

Oh god I can imagine!! No respect at all, yet the show canโ€™t go on without you. Itโ€™s mental! Some support and visibility for arts workers in general would be huge. Because Iโ€™m both an arts worker and creative, seeing the glaring difference in respect is really obvious
