re: Personal thoughts on illustrated novels in comic spaces?

Thank you @Karumtoo-Rexo and @ArtCrumbs your responses have been very helpful and are giving me a lot to think about!

Personal thoughts on illustrated novels in comic spaces?
Since recently changing up my format from comic to novel + illustrations I have found it quite a bit harder to garner engagement than I'd anticipated. I knew it was going to be a tough old time getting people to move from a primarily visual format to a text format but perhaps i grossly underestimated.

Another concern...

re: Some profile suggestions with customization

I think the ability to post images in statuses would be pretty bomb so you can post teasers and sneak peeks of upcoming episodes or show off some art to keep followers engaged.

Not a profile suggestion but being able to set a thumbnail or cover art for individual releases within a series would be bomb too!

re: Web comics

You got your wish! A lot of us vertical scrolling folks have moved over to GC now from platforms that didn't really appreciate our work for what it is, so now there's no shortage of vertical scrolling fun!

re: What part of comic/manga making do you want to learn about the most?

For me personally screentones and writing for short comics would be interesting as they aren't topics I've delved into much myself yet.

In terms of advice I feel the community as a whole still needs to know more about I think panelling for webtoons and lettering are pretty crucial.

re: What Genre Grabs You More Than Anything?

I love me a good dystopia to be fair. I think my favourite comics are those that aren't strictly one genre or another but instead a hybrid of several genres. For me my favourite genres are the ones I write in: superhero, sci-fi, contemporary fantasy etc etc. I've always loved those genres.

If you're looking for popularity, romance is oversaturated...

re: What does "ultimate success" mean to you?

Honestly, I'd be happy to have a small cult following that all enjoy my comic as much as I enjoy creating it.

Also to complete my comic, or at least the first season would be a huge success for me.

re: When you have a character and you can't come up with a story for them.

It can be quite difficult to reverse-engineer a plot to serve a character as characters are usually meant to serve the plot but here's some ways you might be able to have a go at it:

1) Think about your character's personality and positive/negative qualities (if you have written those) and try to create a story which challenges some of their...
