Here’s a look at some of my ongoing projects. Scroll down for my complete bio.
I offer comics consultations in two formats — a 60-minute full consultation and a 30-minute coaching session. Both are arranged over a Zoom meeting (cameras are optional).
30-minute coaching session
In this meeting, you will present a topic you’d like us to discuss. Whether it’s help writing a specific comic, improving your performance on Patreon, pre-flighting a Kickstarter, social-media strategy, or any other comics-related subject, we will spend 30 minutes discussing its solution.
60-minute consultation
In this meeting, I will prepare a written consultation to address the topics that you are most concerned about, and we will discuss them in detail over the course of an hour. You will receive the written document at the end of the session, along with a link to a free digital copy of The Webcomics Handbook.
These conversations have been overwhelmingly positive and constructive, and I’ve really enjoyed working with fellow cartoonists, giving them the perspective of my 25+ years doing daily webcomics.
