agreed with all of @ar-ninetysix points, couldn’t have said it better myself. you’re creating work for yourself which you absolutely will not be able to get out of. i’m saying this as kindly as possible.. a good book, a good comic script, a good story, those need more than a couple of hours of sitti…

Hi! I’m sorry if you feel attacked by what I’ve said but just as I said in my original post I don’t think there’s anything wrong with you making LGBT+ content as an LGBT+ creator I know that creating content for the community can be a mirror of one’s own experiences even if done indirectly. However,…

That's awesome! I have a project myself I'm doing with 8 other lovely ace/aro folk answering questions from readers about what it means to be aro/ace, what living as aro/ace is like, and answering some awfully personal questions that can be important for younger folks on the spec to hear [:tapa_pop:…

Yeah! I never criticized the questions anyway, I criticized the choice of works+author duo (like Kao has a comic about his daily life, but that's not the comic that was chosen you know?) I'm really really happy to see this taken seriously as it would've been very easy to write it off, and I'd love…

I'll do my best to explain! I was referring to the QNA tapas is doing, which spotlighting a vast majority of creators who’s comics had nothing to do with their identity. For example, an enby lesbian writing a gay romance story, or a cis pan man writing a trans story, etc. Rather than giving lgbt+ a…

god, as long as you don’t pull the same shit you’re doing with pride month. make sure it’s black creators making black comics, not white creators with a poc mc

Please post your comics with jewish kiddos! “My comic has a character but it’s never mentioned, does it count?” Nope :slight_smile:

Gosh, as much as I want to accept every single person who wants to join, I am honestly very worried it’ll backfire and create something non-cohesive if we have more than 10 creators on board, so I’m capping it at everyone’s who’s already applies. I’ll send you all private messages with some info. Th…

oops i somehow missed this, it's just for people who want to participate but maybe don't want to out themselves here for some reason or another :slight_smile:

by the way in case anyones wondering why im not replying directly to people and "accepting" them for the project it's because i haven't really figured out How to do that yet (all of you just sound lovely and want to give you all a platform to talk about your experiences :frowning: ). I'm thinking about it and…

hey! it's going to be more like a written interview, not live or anything. i do want us to get together and pick questions and talk between us while forming answers since we will be representing something bigger than our own experiences i think its going to go up as an update on my comic but we can…

Ahh I do hope this is still open because I'm such a fan of It's a self discovery story about secrets and how sometimes it's really none of your business to know someone else's. The art and writing are phenomenal, you can really tell they were given great care and love, the story is right now a…

That's totally fine! I am looking specifically for aro/ace creators, part of what I want to talk about is the community and being part of it, and coming to the conclusion you're aro/ace (which is of course different for everyone) so I'm not sure I'd feel comfortable putting you in that aro/ace light…

Hello! My comic has an aroace character. He’s pretty cute. [image] With pride month coming up I thought it would be a good opportunity to answer some of my reader’s relentless questions (webtoon’s fanbase continue to be very into BL with very little understanding of the lgbt+ community, haha!) …

oh that’s a bigggg mood, people always make ace characters like . robots or aliens. because obviously if you’re not sexually attracted to anyone you’re emotionless; right? i was gonna talk about crona from soul eater & haruhi from ouran but like, i wouldn’t want anyone giving me “ace rep” that’s …

here and there w/ things like this page but if u want a Real master of the arts ask @beta1042

something strictly man-made like a concert or movie?

gotcha my man youd be surprised at what others ask for, particularly when paired with not putting examples of their own work up for the artist to see [:sweat_02:]

if you want to talk quality that’s fine i guess(?) but also you should specify because one punch man specifically has 2 artists/versions. one by the original writer (ONE) and one by his friend (yuuske muruta) who redid it. [image][image] it’s frankly a pretty different ask so you should at…

It’s not that way for me at least? I don’t find anyhting I read to be a guilty pleasure/so-bad-it’s-good (no pleasure). I genuinely read it because I find it to be bad, for bad’s sake. It’s possible people just have different meanings for the same term, but i don’t have any other term for what th…

i dunno man that sounds like a you-problem

self examination is a great alternative, not everyone has to reach things in the same way, i just wanted to explain that it's Not doing something because "we dislike it" it has a pretty useful end result if youre willing to self-criticize

that's not quite what hate-reading is for, though! to repeat my previous comment: hate-reading and plain hating something are very different. hate-reading is reading something with the intent to understand what you dislike out of it as a vessel for self-growth in a context you (as a content creator …

theres nothing to be sorry about.! that does make sense, and i think it just serves a very different purpose. hate-reading is a form of self-exploration, and support is an external encouragement of your community. i dont think either is better or comes to replace the other, and it absolutely makes s…

neither are people who hate read [:blank:] im a bit confused what this means? just because people hate-read doesnt mean they were Told to by someone? they couldve and probably did get to the conclusion they dont like the piece of media on their own? haha if you feel like it, i recommend yo…

i agree! both the comics i hate-read i do with a friend. its just Nice analyzing a piece of media and figuring out why we dont like it, in a way i think its just as and sometimes more ground for self-discovery! for me, if im reading an indie comic what i wouldnt like about it would have more to do…

hmm i think theres a big distinction to be made between hating on a comic and hate-reading a comic. i dont go around leaving comments on how much these comics suck, to me. hate reading is a way for me to recognize what i dont like about my own writing, what i find unacceptable to do as a public fig…

lol this is the one thread i thought surely no one would self-promote on

How’s it going gang? Let’s have a discussion. Have you hate-read any comics? are you hate-reading comics right now? Basically, reading comics with the express purpose of getting pissy at things like how badly they’re written, etc I do hate read because i have no self respect, namely two comics (…
