Uploaded pages not loading
I uploaded my comic last night and everything seemed to work and now they don't load for readers. They just get the loading wheel.

What do we really think of Kai and Sophia's relationship?
Kai and Sophia meet at a bar and it appears like your "one time" hook-up situation. BUT...that's not the case. Kai keeps showing up in Sophia's life. At first glance, it seems like he just wants sex from her, right? RIGHT? Is it more than that?

Chapter 21 Part 2 Discussion
Thoughts? Did you feel sorry for Kai? Do you think Sophia is doing the right thing? Let me know.

What was your favorite 'No Strings' moment of 2023?
Oh, this is tough for me. I have a lot and I'm super biased. hahaha. It's probably a tie between that drunken kiss with Jason (that leads to them sleeping together) and the café hallway talk with Brennan where she starts to express how she's feeling and he says "My beautiful Sophia, there is nothing inside you that would make me walk away from you." 

Chapter 14 Part 3 - The kiss with Jason
Chapter 19 Part 1 - The talk with Brennan

We will be meeting Kai's boss soon. Share your thoughts.
Chapter 21 introduces Kai's boss. His intro will be an interesting one. I'd love to hear your thoughts about what kind of personality he will have and how the first meeting with Sophia will go.

Re: Who's the best man for Sophia given all of her issues?
I think you've nailed the boys down pretty well. I always wanted to do an chapter for Brennan's perspective. We never quite know what he's thinking although he's been a lot my open recently. I had an early chapter scripted out totally from his point of view...maybe we'll release that someday. So many things I want to do!

Who's the best man for Sophia given all of her issues?
She has a drinking problem and PTSD from her previous marriage. She can't commit, but at the end of the day she really wants someone to love her, right?

What did you think of Chapter 20 Part 2?
The dynamic between Kai and Sophia is an interesting one. He's been brought up in this totally different life with a different set of rules. This idea of marking what's his is very relevant to his world. While his intentions towards her at first were merely for some "sexy" time, we are already starting to see a shift.

Re: Vertical Comic PDF Sales Support - Feedback Needed!
My comic is 800px width with a variable height at 300 dpi. I don't envy you in trying to find a solution. This is so hard. Vertical scroll varies so, so much. I typically have 6 panels per page, but sometimes there are more panels and sometimes less. There are many times I use long visual panels with more narration. In those instances, there are only 2 panels on that page. Maybe I'm speaking out of turn, but I also feel like vertical scroll creators like to find ways to make the panels more dynamic instead of box after box all the time. That dynamic thinking also causes this to be a difficult way to "measure" vertical scroll. At the end of the day, I feel like the consumer will pay to read more or read ahead regardless. If they don't get the content they expect from the creator, they will stop paying. I've paid many times for "credits" to read ahead on other platforms. Some of the episodes were shorter than others. I didn't care because I was invested in the story and they gave me enough to keep me coming back.

Re: What is your storytelling approach?
My comic is adapted from a novel I wrote, so it poses a lot of challenges for me to say less words. I'm not super great at it, but I've really improved. I usually include in every chapter what I call my "signature panel." It's longer, more emotionally descriptive, and visually captivating.
