On the subject of income, I don’t think I’ve changed my rates much in a decade or (more), but the past two years have been the first that clients have balked at the cost for commercial art and graphic recording.

You'll probably have to blow it up or look at this on a big screen, but here is how anyone can make a little 8 page zine that they can use to write a story, write about their favorite things, a personal experience or make a mini comic. Fold some paper and get your thoughts out there!!
