once a month i have a day where i'm like "i should start a webcomic" and today is that day this month.
folks, i cannot draw
Fucked up that you started with the perfect webcomic, there's nowhere else for the art form to go

I like writing and writing byproducts

more people who can't draw need to start webcomics imo. some of the best webcomics in the world were made by people who couldn't draw
The fun part is you slowly become someone that CAN DRAW!
thats okay. Art skill is optional. See dinosaur comics, sprite comics, xkcd, etc.
I wasted my life learning to draw for my comics and have nothing to show for it. You should not learn to draw. You should learn how to position already made assets like sprites from video games. Comics are basically books but you replace the narrator with simple images to direct the eye. It's not complicated. If you want it to be truly great and all original you should have a larger team than one person to make it. The big comics that make money have teams. The exceptions have people who die young from over work. Don't over work. I want to read your scripts.
Or just make a comic at your own pace, take your time, take breaks when you need them. That's the great part of self-publishing, you are YOUR OWN BOSS!

I love this. As someone who also loves making comics at the amateurish skill level i feel like weโre are comrades in arms. hell yeah
ever see the first couple of years of C&H comics? yeah they could not draw either
go wild out there, do not let society or lack of "talent" stop you from being weird and making things!
