Introductions 2020 – Make Friends, Meet Creators, Say Hello to Your Fans

[KGBuchanan]

Hey, I'm KGB. I write more often than I should. Or far less often than I should. That's me: all or nothing. Never in between. I write teen fiction featuring kick-ass lgbt characters living their lives. I just started posting my first work on Tapas and hope that I like it here. So, hi!

[JamJamsart]

I haven't been very active on Tapas and my comic is more popular on webtoons (by "more popular" I mean almost 40 subs lol but still), but I've been really wanting to join the forums for a while now! my friend, Sapphire-and-ice, creator of The Pirate and the Princess, which you should totally go read, suggested I'd post my comic on the forums and meet creators to get my comic more readers! so here I am!

my comic is a modern fantasy called Hellbound, and it's about a wizard and his friends and has fantasy, action, BL romance and none BL romance, a largely LGBT and POC cast, a gay indigenous protagonist as well as a bi black co-protagonist, etc.

[RL4]

Hi! I've been on tapas for about a month and a half now and I've been able to grow a small community with my comic series. I hope to continue growing confidence as a storyteller and an artist. If you're into wholesome/comedic comics, please give mine a chance!

TALES OF HINARI | Tapas

[adequateannie]

Hi everyone! I just got started here and would love to get to know you all! Until a couple of weeks ago I've been on a hiatus from drawing for a good decade (busy life, yadda yadda...) so I've been drawing everyday to make up for it.

Feel free to give feedback or comments or talk to me about anything, really!

[mjmassey]

Hello everyone!

I'm returning to Tapas after taking time away focusing on other aspects of my comics career. I'm a fine purveyor of fantasy comics and tragic shenanigans. Here on Tapas is my series Black Ball, a 1920s magical murder mystery! When her sister is murdered, Emily Trent decides to find out why. Her investigation will take her into the underground world of rum runners, spell slingers, and the rivalry between Arcane and Practical Sciences!

[2_YuiAkane_2]

Hello everybody!

My name is Yui but they call me Yuu for some reason too

I am a university student and I work part-time in a restaurant, and I write BL Novels! I am diligent, so I mostly have some time to write every day, as I want to improve and publish my novel in the near future! In the meantime, I also am the proofreader of @masslow (creator of Kokoro https://tapas.io/series/Right-in-Kokoro/info) and @Taty_Ho ( creator of Angel Behind Back https://tapas.io/series/Angel-behind-a-back/info).

Subscribe, like and comment my novel and if you are an artist, I will reciprocate your kindness by doing the same

[Dina_Karolina]

Hello everyone! I go by Dina I'm a Tapas newbie, like very very new, only been here a few days. This is actually my first reply on the forums!

I came here from Wattpad looking for a nice sleek platform with a good community and somewhere like these forums (so sad to see the Wattpad ones go) where I can interact with people and share ideas. I hope to have a great time with you

I'm very new to Tapas so my only work is an Action/Adventure novel called "Remember Normandy". I'll leave the link here in case you want to check it out:

Remember Normandy | Tapas

If anyone else is into that genre of stories or writes novels then don't be afraid to follow me, I'll follow back! Like I mentioned I'm very new to the platform so I don't have that many friends yet but hopefully we can keep getting to know each other

[siluscomics]

Hello everyone, I'm Silus!

I'm pretty new too I guess, but I've been lurking here and there around the forums. I have three cats and three dogs and like long walks on the beach.

Oh, and here is my comic!

[KimBryanArt]

Hello! I'm Kimberly and I'm an animation student aiming for a career in storyboarding. I also have ADHD and I've made it my mission to tackle disability tropes in my comic, The Villain's Volunteer! The pilot is currently on Webtoons, but I'll cross-post it here when I finish the first chapter.

I also enjoy reading about art history and I miss going to Disneyland.

The Villains Volunteer

[zjotaa]

Hello I'm Zanna! I'm new here and took me forever to find the reply button, but I just wanted to promote my novel Soul Seekers! It's about 6 friends and how they are destined to destroy the world, but decide to save it in the process. Right now, it currently has 2 chapters posted, but I'll be posting more soon!

Soul Seekers | Tapas

[shadowrayugah]

My story takes place in a medieval world where some people got powers (called Gift by them) and decided to use this to oppress and enslave the rest of the population. The main character is part of these people who have a Gift and the story will show his vision about this society.

Shadow | Tapas

[hernooftopnac]

Hi there. I'm fairly new to Tapas (a total nube). My name is Herno Of Topnac, not my real name obviously (it's the name of the main character of the novel).
I'm writing a fantasy/action/multi dimensional novel. It's about a teenager who gets caught up in a battle between all folks of my fantasy world. But after some time he won't just be caught up in the battle of the world he lives in, but also in the ones of the other three dimensions.
When I saw that there weren't any novels in German on Tapas I translated it to German (I know that's not really allowed, but if I'm right they also didn't forbidd it). You also can find my series in English on Tapas.
I'm posting every month a new chapter.
Here is the german one.
And here is the English one.

[sevenstarsofeightIam]

Hello, all. I am Daniel. I live in the midwest but hail from the south. I am glad to be a part of the Tapas community. I have seen some really great talent here. I write novels; haven't drawn since I was in high school. I do sci-fi and fantasy with a spiritual quality. I also write apologetics, compose music, and am into photography. Thanks for having me.

The Faerie Dusters | Tapas

[Aldonwood]

Hello friends. You can call me Aldon.

I've been talking about starting a comic for twenty years, and I finally decided to stop talking about it and just do it. It's about a world where the princesses of various kingdoms compete in a boxing tournament.

I started posting on both Tapas and Webtoon in October but I never made any posts here on the forums, though I'm coming around on that. I try to post once every other Friday.

Webtoon: https://www.webtoons.com/en/challenge/ko-princess/list?title_no=533892
Tapas: https://tapas.io/series/KO-Princess/info

[mickpaulusma]

Nice to see you here @Aldonwood

I'll try not to do the math but I have a feeling we are coming here at similar times in our life!

I have just started to publish my first comic on webtoon:

All The Little Things

I haven't made use of the forums in the past but I am already glad I am as I can already see that I need to make my series summary shorter!

[KGBuchanan]

Hey all, just started on Tapas at the end of November and posted my first work "Not Programmed for This" about a girl facing biphobia from her high school LGBT community. But mostly it's a sweet YA romance.

Not Programmed For This | Tapas

Now that's completely posted and ready to binge, I'm posting my new series set at a University. It's a friends-to-lovers BL between a very introverted science major and a flamboyantly flirtatious contemporary dancer.

Little Distractions | Tapas

I stopped writing for a long time, but getting involved with a community of online writers encouraged me to get back to work. I have since written a number of books in various stages of doneness

I am happy to be venturing into the world of tapas and hope to connect with other creators here.

Heyyyy~

My name's Lady T. and I've been really getting into this forum as of the last month! So many interesting and often helpful topics and people coming together to talk about art and writing.

If you are still into trying to figure out watercolors, I totally recommend checking out Jane Blundell's Blog (Master of color comparisons and mixing) and In Liquid Color and Sadie Saves the Day on youtube. They've all helped me on my watercolor journey, though now I mostly stick with making my comic, but love to sit down and do a watercolor nice painting every now and again too.
