So you've written this awesome scene, or placed your pawns (aka characters) just perfectly to create a perfect scenario… and then you are stuck.
There is no way you can solve the problem in a way that pans out well for the character or the plot, or what you ...

Fandom
Banes at 12:00AM, Jan. 25, 2018
In a world of adapted comic book characters and stories, reborn old franchises, and endless brand-excavation of old TV shows, toys, and video games, our entertainment culture is something different than we've previously seen.
“I.P.'s” are dug up repurposed endlessly, in order to try and make a ...
The Origin Stories of Webcomics | Part 1
Emma_Clare at 12:00AM, Jan. 19, 2018
For this week I decided to take a break from the usual topic of comic promotion and, instead, talk about something more personal. Every now and then I get asked how I got into webcomics and, as an inevitable follow up, where should they start. If you’ll indulge me ...
Damaged Protagonists
Banes at 12:00AM, Jan. 18, 2018
A well written protagonist will generally have some flaws, starting out as an underdog of some kind, with lessons to learn and improvements to make over the course of the story.

We had a big snowfall two weeks ago, and I was out driving the city in it (I have a part time delivery job).
My car and I held up pretty well in it, and that was satisfying. As the news warned people to stay off the roads, I was ...
On The Still-Ongoing Net Neutrality Issue
Tantz_Aerine at 12:00AM, Dec. 16, 2017
A thread in the forum by JillyFoo on Net Neutrality has inspired this newspost.
I did some cursory research on it on the issue of how repealing it might affect artists- indie artists, like most of us are as webcomic creators and DD contributors.
According to Rolling Stone repealing it ...
Mirror, Mirror Part 1

Mirror, Mirror,
On the wall,
One webcomic site?
Or do I do them all?
Nowadays there are a plethora of options available to creators and the question is no longer where to post your work, but how many websites should you feature it on? Do you opt in for exclusivity ...
