Sketch 'N' Chat || No One Cares About Your First Comic or Book || Like Your Original Characters

Join Shell Presto for a Sketch 'n' Chat. This time it's a reality check for all you creative types out there. We're talking about why no one cares about your original characters and how hard it is to get people to read your first book or comic, and the only paradoxical solution.

While we talk, you can sit back, watch me draw part of my Incorrigible IMPS comic for Bexim's Bazaar magazine.

Today's drawing has ties back to my work on our books in the Ascension Epoch universe. Learn more about the books I've co-written and illustrated, as well as the Ascension Epoch in general, here:
