Life has handed me some recent issues that need to be addressed asap, but can't since that what court dates are for. I've been here and there. Relocating and moving around. I'm sort of dizzy from the whole adventure. At least I have some time now to concentrate on getting serious with my writing. Continue

GA needs more comic cons.

We only about what, 6 or 7 a year? New York and California have more than that. And that's a big maybe on our numbers. We have the ACCs, DragonCon and Fluke (which I just learned about today). It is a disappointment when ACE disbanded, I'd love another show like that. Or something like MegaCon. That was awesome. Continue

New York

So. I am back from NYCC and my God, that was just crazy. It was an amazing adventure that I will never forget. Though, apparently, Newark airport is the worst airport to fly in and out of. I have learned my mistake about that. I did some incredible networking and I have no doubt what I want to do with my life. I probably should have known sooner. Oh well. Chris and George were amazing companions and even though I had little money, I made it home with one dollar. I have pictures up on my photobuc… Continue

Thanks again, Ron Marz

Ever get that bit of advice or just a little nudge to help your brain? I got it right before I had the best shower I've taken all year. Yeah so it's only almost a month into the year...it was awesome. So, as some of you know, I write for a comic news site called Newsarama. Now of course working there you get to talk to creators and artists and etc. Some are awesome, some are good...some are...reclusive. Since I've been working there (almost a year now), I've made several rapports with people wh… Continue

Sickly

I have been sick since the start of the week. I wanted to get a jumpstart on my preparation for NYCC in a few weeks. It is still surreal that it is happening. Oh well, hopefully this weekend will be more productive. Continue

Christmas part 2.

So my good buddy Cully helped me out with this one. It's Velma from Scooby-Doo and it's my girlfriend's Christmas present...that I have yet to give her. That is one problem with LDRs sometimes, you buy something and you hold on to it for so long, you kinda just want to keep it with you. Argh. So it's a month and a week until NYCC and I'm still kind of anxious/nervous/vomit… Continue

Lack of sleep makes the pen bleed more quickly on the paper

I find it weird that if I have to sit down and write, nothing really comes out. Because in that position, I write only because I have to. Deadlines pile up, and I have to get it done. Though for some reason I find that after a night of no sleep, I feel more energized to right. There is a feeling of heightened sense of reality, and a sort of quasi-hysteria kicks in and before I know it, I'm running on all cylinders. Today will be one of those days. Continue

A beginning

I've been writing comics since I've been able to hold a pencil or crayon in my hand. This year I began working for Newsarama and I've made friendships and rapports with individuals who I thought I never would meet, much less interview or get some incredible advice from. I am going to New York Comic Con in February to cover the con for 'Rama, as well as hopefully sell my comic. I've worked with local artist, and friend of 15 years, on a book I think has a great… Continue

About

Sean Taylor created this Ning Network.

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?
