LOVE the rendering of the leather and the UNFEASIBLY LARGE ZIPPER TAG on Anaïs.

We can be wet, cold, hungover and selling comics whilst faceless grindr profiles say "hey" on our dying phones at home!

Flaccid, Ernest, flaaaaacciiiiiid

Oh wait it's a bar bar. Slaying all by yourself missy?

Werq it diva! Sissy that breakfast bar

It could change your life

And you have to cultivate a degree of delulu to succeed in art. I'm happy to talk art and self-publishing any time; success for me means connection. Making art is about connecting with people, and success in the arts means connection with more people! Decide what success means to you and achieve it.

And reach out to people who have had success, creatively, commercially, and ask them stuff! I have many times. I have the type of delulu where I assume any other artist is my peer, my equal, and I can say hello and they'll reply. Those that don't are missing out.

Or, make something that will sell big, maybe it will. But if you're not living off the proceeds of your art, don't feel you're failing. MOST ARTISTS ARE NOT MAKING A LIVING FROM THEIR ART! Only a tiny percentage do. Make what you love and enjoy the process, don't judge yourself by financial success.
