I think @yansusu explained it much better than me! [:smile_01:] But we don't always have to agree, of course! @yansusu Ahh, that's all really interesting, thank you for sharing! [:hype_01:] And send me all the science! [:hype_01:] I just accepted that this is how I work, after many failed attemp…
@IndigoShirtProd Hello! It's fine, it's an interesting discussion for sure, and I'm happy to take it [:tapa_pop:] Please let me know if I make sense or not, haha. Hopefully I can shed some light as least on how it works for me. I can't speak for anyone else, of course! First of all... You'r…
Haha, sorry for stealing your idea!
But I'm happy to see a planner-explorer! [:heart_03:] It's probably more effective to not be a 100% explorer, honestly, but what can you do.
But ohhh, what an exciting endeavour you have on your hands! [:doggo_shook:] Let me know how that exploration goes!…
So! [:tapa_pop:] For some writers, the struggle is to come up with an idea for a story or finding the right way to approach an idea they already have. There are many good threads on how to plan out different stories, getting that skeleton down, figure out the main events from beginning to end... Or…
HMMMM... I can't pick favourites, but here are a few I remember well, for various reasons [:tapa_pop:] Nominated for... Most emotional impact! And for potentially traumatising a few kids growing up... Summary Flukta frå dyreskogen! ("The Animals of Farthing Wood") For me it has to be in Norw…
I love me a good twist, but it has to feel connected to the story and make some sort of sense when looking back. I especially love if, when re-reading the story, it makes me see things I may not have noticed before. Whether you as a reader can see it coming or not isn't a deciding factor for me. I…
Seeing all these finished challenges is so motivating!
Basically, you want to aim for predictability and visibility. [:tapa_pop:] Predictability in terms of people knowing when to check back. Visibility in terms of people finding you / being reminded your work exists. In other words, decide on a regular update schedule of some sort. Try to stay true …
Do it! [:tapa_pop:] There's no time limit! I'm working on two at the moment, and it'll take me a while to finish them alongside work and all, but it's a fun challenge for sure!
First, I ask them to elaborate. [:hype_01:] Communication, communication, communication... . If they can put their experience into words in a more constructive way, I thank them for that. Not everyone knows how to give a good critique, and even good critique can hurt. But it's helpful to know wh…
I have way too many ideas, and I want to work on them all at once, so I feel you ... BUT! My tip would be to write these ideas/projects down in a notebook or something of the sort, so you can get them out of your head, and then pick a few projects to actually focus on with the intention of comple…
[image] A little context..? [:smug_01:] Summary Yesterday, a friend of mine had her birthday and I decided to be very nice... and draw her NOTP, aka two characters from a novel I'm writing that she really doesn't wanna see together for reasons (one being that she's convinced the guy on the righ…
I'm not eating anything right now, but man do I feel hungry after reading this thread. [:cry_02:] I think I need to visit the fridge...
Jalapeño! [:cry_01:] So good!

Nooo, the details thing isn't working? It worked just fine in the preview, though. Not sure what happened. My apologies for not giving you a choice in whether you see my wall of text or not. [:cry_02:] Looks like I need to look for some tips n' tricks when it comes to formatting on Tapas, as we…

Sorry for disappearing for a bit! Life is life, and I want to take my time when replying. [:smile_01:] So it'll probably happen again. Apologies in advance! I’ve also been going back and forth a bit as to figure out the best way to reply. To not confuse myself, I’ll go for more thematic posts. Start…
The following situation might be familiar to some of you. And maybe you've already been through this process a few times, too... and it's easier said than done to get out of it (still workin on it haha... ha... pls come hunt me down if I haven't published anything by January 2020) But anyway! …

Hello everyone! [:smile_01:] I haven't made a topic here on Tapas before, but I've lurked around and enjoy reading the various conversations/discussions going down. So hope I'm doing this right... I've read a lot and heard a lot about how to approach marketing for visual media like webcomics and a…
If you enjoy colouring, then you should definitely keep it up, even if you don't feel "good enough" yet (will an artist ever?). I think the solid / cell shaded colouring style you've got going in your more recent pages works well with your confident and adorable lines. c: If it so happens that yo…
This topic sparked an interesting conversation for sure. c: Rather than change the category, I think the crux of the issue is that not everyone can be squished onto the front page and be discovered from there - and that it's hard to be discovered otherwise. The more content is published on the pla…
