Mixam! A very small run, if that matters

digital printer, I sent a pdf of tiffs

I have a book with a mix of b&w and greyscale (pencil) pages. The b&w are 1200 dpi bitmaps and look great printed. The printer bitmapped the greyscale pages so they look bad. Tell me how to fix this please. It’s possible to print with a mix of both, right?

Has anyone printed a small run with a digital printer, mixam etc, that accepts 1200 dpi files?

Just sit down and start drawing it’s that simple probably

Here are some preview pages, one from each book.

600 pages of work, the longest gestating of these projects started in 2015, I decided it’s time to “clear the slate”

More info here, preorders available and I hope to be finished in the fall: whitecomics.co/2026/01/04/y...

News: the 2026 issue of my Yearly series will be four books. I’m saying this now to motivate me to finish this dumb ambitious project.

A story from Yearly 2024

Electronic Meditation I wrote all of this a couple of weeks and had full intentions to add more but it just wasn’t happening, so I wanted to get this out of before it sat in draft box purgatory for too long.

Inkstuds was really formative for me, I listened to every episode. So I’m very touched by these kind words on Spring Tides by Robin McConnell.

Not sure if this is what you mean but I’d say indulgent prose is often annoying (unless very very good). Indulgent drawing is often great.

It was good, fine is too harsh! But I was underwhelmed including compared to my own memory.

Ha I reread FH recently and I thought it was just fine?? I got much more from Campbell’s contributions than from the writing or the prose.

No. I think she has a bunch of things say 80% done and can’t finish them for various internal and external reasons. But so much of the book is real, including stuff I wouldn’t expect like the disappearance and uh her love of gridneff. So who knows!

I should find/scan an annotated list of favorite books from her library that she handed out at an event maybe 10 years ago. Definitely showed how broad her interests are, though of course much of it was on the Oxford educated side.

ha yes strongly agree. I’m less taken with it now than I was at first. But I’m not sure Dewitt will be able to do another last samurai, I hope I’m wrong, and/but this is an interesting book about her inability to write a TLS level work.

It still needed a lot of work

I have ECOLE

Ok, I finished YNH (again, I remember the pdf version more clearly now). It’s good! Messy! I’m a little skeptical that DeWitt will be able to produce another last samurai, for various reasons including the reasons discussed in NYH, but this is probably the next best thing.

I’ll just watch the movie, I’m sure that’s just as good

Ah yeah of course

Please recommend any art or comics that try to visually represent near infinite space or time. Huizenga’s river at night of course, but I’m struggling to think of any others…

What I’m working on

I had an interesting conversation with a young person at spx, who said “I like weird/experimental/whatever comics, what are they called? what terms can I use to seek them out?” — and of course I didn’t have a good answer. “Poetry comics” is one of several options that I considered and rejected.

I think even if used “correctly” it doesn’t usefully describe or group together comics I like that might fit under this category.

Do you still think the idea of comics poetry, as poetry, etc is helpful for makers or readers? I tend to think it isn’t…
