Ruth owned last week’s fanart, so can we get a little Dorothy in here? Yes we can, thanks to Starline! Go read her webcomic, Candi. It’s about a pink-haired girl who totally also goes to college.
So, you’re saying Starline’s comic isn’t cool enough for you folks with JOBS?
I think Star’s comic is way cool, and I have… well, I think it’s a job. I go there every day, have lots of fun and they pay me twice a month. What else could it be but a job?
I’ve got some time off work due to injury, so I’ve been using it to get caught up.
And it’s probably easy for you people with desk jobs to read webcomics. I work retail.
Yes, to the first one, although at the bengniing, it’s pretty important to experiment with that kind of thing You never know how it might interfere or when life will just throw you one, which is why I had that fanart suggestion there.As for people who are self-sufficient via webcomics, there’s actually than the people you mentioned. But, in reality, you’re right. The vast majority of webcomic creators don’t make very much money or any money at all. Still, some people don’t realize that their readers might be sympathetic and willing to help them out financially. Also, it kind of helps connect the creators and readers. Creators feel like they have an obligation to work harder on the webcomic and readers feel like they’re doing what they can to keep something they love in production. Your recommendation for donation-driven goodies is a great one that I should have included.I would have suggested exhibiting at cons, but for some people it’s not just a possibility yet. It’s tough to do that and very hard to get space or make back your money if you do.
I totally forgot about Candi. I used to read it, but stopped when I got a job.

4 out 5* employees surveyed said they prefer reading Candi over working at their job.

Cool fan art, Starline!

Having begun to reread Candi because of this, I have immediately spotted Walky within the first few strips.
