It’s finally happened
Hello, beautiful sharks.
After so many years, I’ve finally managed to jump into what I’ve wanted to do for so long; start a podcast. When I say that I actually created a twitter account for a potential podcast back in 2018, I am not lying. Safe to say; this has been a long time coming.
I reached out to my wonderful friend, Paul Duffield, who is somewhat of an expert on the field of comics. He has taught me so much valuable information and even helped me on my own projects with feedback and encouragement. He is invaluable to me, as a comic creator myself. So who better to chat comics with in general? A while back I pitched the idea about us hanging out and picking a comic to talk about each episode and I’m thrilled to say he was immediately interested. Yet I’ve been let down numerous times in the past whenever I try to kick an ambitious project off of the ground. Most people don’t match my energy (which admittedly is probably too intense for most) and plans continuously fall through. The fact that this has been such a smooth experience feels uncanny and I find myself pinching my arm even as I see the very first episode go live.
Full disclosure: we had some technical difficulties during this trial run, but I believe the episode is still listenable (that’s a word, right?) And it would mean so much if you check it out. We’re aiming to make this a twice-a-month thing, fingers crossed adult life doesn’t sabotage too heavily. Can I also say that editing is probably my top three favorite activities to do? Yes, even when I have to listen to my own voice for hours on end.
Alright, I’ve rambled for long enough. I’m happy to announce that The Art of Comics should be available on most platforms out there. Here’s some of them:
Take care and have a lovely weekend.

Woah! As a fellow comic creator I'm stoked to hear this :D Will give it a listen as soon as I've been able to read the comic! For future episodes, I'd love a handy link to the comic somewhere to click.
Also kudos for liking editing - it's one of my least favorite things to do probably 😂
