Not sure, what's the wattage?
(Not mine) Iâm hooked on Chew and Swallow right now because it seems so far off from many BL tropes. Also itâs really dark, dramatic, and feels bold in what is discussed or what happens. Thatâs right up my alley. It is one of the premiums right now.
I can count on one hand the number of women I know of in the world who write this particular subgenre, and I'm a full one fifth - some slice of life, zero fiction, and like next to nothing I've seen here.
Ta-da! Military history!
I definitely count mine as unconventional and it is so for a few reasons:
Format. I stole it from Inspired by Homestuck.There's only one frame at the top and a bunch of text below. The frame is usually animated, it literally has more in common with cinematography than comics. And the text is basically a script for a play, sometimes with author's inserts.
Genre. Mostly it is a cross between fantasy (magic, pseudo medieval setting, dream mechanics, gods) and sci-fi (technology, science, dimensions, spaceship, clones), but also deals with complicated and heavy subjects, so there's drama too. And romance because relationships happen and unhappen. I decided I'm going to rotate the genre for this story here on Tapas depending on what stage we're in xD
Pacing. The story is told in the form of a very inconsistent journal. Because it is one. So, the narrator is extremely unreliable, and the writer is somehow secondary.
Art. I break my fingers every 20 or so pages and change the art style. This was such a problem in the beginning, but then I learned how to be consistent with colors at least throughout the scene.
I would say I'm doing something different. I haven't seen many webcomics dealing with darker fairytales or the faerie folklores and moxing it together. More spicificly the tales about changelings, and looking at the more psychological aspects of that kind of story.
