10 Questions for Comics Creators

ComicsCareer.Com is a website devoted to the craft of creating comics. We’re starting a new feature on the site: We’re asking professional comics creators to give their answers to a set of 10 questions about their life and career. We’ll be publishing one “interview” each day.

If you create or publish comics of any type, we would love to include your 10 Questions interview. Just fill in your answers below and send them to: 10questions@comicscareer.com. (We’ll keep your email address strictly confidential.)

Use as many or as few words as you want. Except for minor corrections for spelling, punctuation, etc., we won’t edit without your permission.

Important: We want to get hundreds of creators and industry professionals to participate in the 10 Questions interview project, so we need your help. Please forward this survey on to your colleagues and encourage them to do the same.

Thanks very much for participating!

You should. It's a good bit of exposure. Especially if everyone interviewed sends the info to their respective fans, friends, family, we could all have new people seeing our stuff.

FAQ

What is this network?

The Atlanta Comics Creators network is just what it says it is, group of Atlanta-based comics creators who use this online resource to make connections, build peer relationships, and further their comics careers.

Who is invited to join?

All mainstream, indie, or webcomic artists, inkers, writers, colorists, editors, and publishers; animators; and pop art and low brow creators local to the Atlanta area.

What can I do here?

Take part in forums to pick the minds of other creators, mentor and be mentored, develop small groups based on locale for real life connections, show off your work, form creative teams, network into national and international markets based on current members, and more to come, such as chat functions and more.

Why should I take part?

Because working in this industry tends to isolate us more than pull us together. Because you never know who your next boss or co-worker will be. Because making friends among your peers is a good practice. Because somebody worked really hard to try to make this place a useful resource, dang it.

What are "groups"?

"Groups" are ways of hooking up by common interests (such as manga or webcomics), location (North Atlanta or Downtown), job focus (artist, writer, pop art, or animator), or any other criteria that bonds us together in groups of people that can help each other become more effective or just hang out and enjoy each others' company.

Where can I get more info about this network?
