Hello, new followers! ✌️
I'm Andrew Leamon, and I've written comics like the Radiant Black #22 backup, Camera Man, Monolith, and Fourthmeal.
I nerd out for cheeseburgers, Chainsaw Man, Nintendo, karaoke, films, and music. I post pics of my dog a lot.
Check out my #comics:

I once asked a bookseller at a large indie store how many people would have to buy a book for it to get the attention of the store buyer and cause an additional order and they said: Three.
I see some book piracy discourse, and, to make a positive argument in favor of buying books, your marginal ability to influence what books get published and support the careers of writers you like is massive compared to most other forms of media.

The third best thing you can do is tell others how much you enjoy that author's work, by writing a review.
If you like an author's work, the best thing you can do is buy it. The second best thing you can do is ask your local library to buy it. Or, do both!
A reminder that the median book deal for a debut author in the UK is £7000, paid over 12-18 months. (from 2022 Society of Authors report). Some of your favourite writers are struggling. societyofauthors.org/2022/12/06/a....

Don't ask people to arrive 15 minutes early for an appointment and then make them wait 15 minutes to get into an exam room and then make them wait another 30+ minutes for the doctor.

There’s only 3 things you can do in the comic book industry. Setting aside formats, genres, delivery,for a minute: 3 things. 1: Work for 7-8 publishers. 2: find a rich guy (one rich guy or small pub headed by rich guy) 3: self-publish (crowdfund, etc). That’s it. It’s not easy, good luck.
