I always love talking to James about comics, as he manages to get me thinking about my own stories and characters in fresh and interesting ways. This week's appearance on the FAQs Project was no different - well worth checking out his insightful podcast.

A jerk gets cornered behind the goth club and bites a vampire. Then she's accused of two (2) counts of murder. Then the 13yo werewolf she looks after is kidnapped. Then her life falls apart. At least she's a monster now. 🔪🩸 Kobo: www.kobo.com/ebook/minty-... Payhip: payhip.com/b/B7Kes Itch: ⤵️

Pretty sure I’ve seen this X-files episode

My best craft advice is "Put a giant worm in it." You can never go wrong with a giant worm. Sci-fi: Giant worm on an alien planet Fantasy: Giant worm in mountain sitting on a pile of gold Horror: Giant worm (eats people) Romance: Giant worm causes third-act breakup Mystery: Giant worm investigates

Writing is a decent trade skill! I've been writing as my day job, owning my own business, for nearly 20 years now. Don't discount how you can apply your writing skills to other industries outside of what might be considered 'pure' creative pursuits.

"How many words can you use to describe corporate non-consenual pornography" challenge.

I think seeing the issues will create more understanding and empathy to the situations.

pssst wanna see the soft launch of my photography licensing site??? gregpak.photo

Milestones are important: this week marks 18 years of full-time freelance writing. Don't ever let anyone tell you it's not a viable career. I wish I had started 5 years sooner.

Glad this brutal game, and series, is over. Go Canes!

NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

I don't normally put myself in the stories I write as a full-fledged character. That didn't stop artist and creative partner Joe Ng from deciding I was the, uh, perfect model for a Dead Air DJ who is nothing like me IRL #comics #kickstarter #indiecomics #radio benjaminhunting.com/when-the-art...

I feel like you're just describing making a comic book here.

They are different sizes, but they’re best friends

The way profit maxxing corpo culture has invaded every form of art through algorithms pushing people into daily posting is really weighing on me lately. Efficiency and regularity of making "content" being prized above all else feels so grim, man.

85% with 4 days left!

We're a little more than a week away from launching Dead Air, the comic book set at a 90s college radio station that asks 'what if one day a year you could talk to the dead?' Sign up for the Kickstarter launch at www.deadaircomic.com

Did anyone else have one of these as a kid? Mine still works pretty well, but it will only steer in one direction. I took the steering gearbox apart and it looks like maybe some teeth skipped inside the motor? Is that possible? Because the gears themselves look okay.

Context-free excerpt from a PR pitch I will not be responding to: "Having lived with, worked alongside, and healed from working with a murderer, licensed marriage and family therapist, [REDACTED] offers insight into narcissism, Machiavellianism, and psychopathy in personal / workplace environments."
