All four $15 commission spots are filled!
However, that means that in two weeks or so, I will be open for regular commissions! If you don’t get one this summer, you’ll have to wait until January! I will probably have some sort of special, too, for those of you who would like a commission but are low on funds.
It’s really crucial that I make some money right now. Filled out, no lie, at least six job applications the...

sparrowlicious asked: Hi Noel! I'm pretty much curious since you put a reference to this in your comic: Do you participate at Nanowrimo? <3
Surround yourself with supportive, honest people
robinofleylines:
…the rest will take care of itself.
Surround yourself with people that understand stumbling blocks are not only inevitable, but important. People that do not expect perfection, but growth. People that focus on what you are working on to become better, not on what slip-ups you had today. People that are working on THEMSELVES, not on YOU.
Nobody needs “fixing” by somebody...

Anonymous asked: Regarding the sale commissions - would it be obnoxious to say a specific thing I want drawn, and then a whole slew of things that could show up in or influence the work (ie, I'm not set on any of them being part of the piece) and have you choose which to include? You mention in the commission page that one can ask for specific, or not-so-specific, or a word/idea, but it's not clear if...

$15 Commission Special! Only FOUR spots! Includes...
Hey everyone!
It’s now summer vacation for me, and I’d like to open up commissions of all kinds, but…first I need some funds to buy paper. Can’t exactly do paintings without paper! For the time being, I’ve got four 6”x8” sheets, and so I’d like to open up this special offer (usually a small color painting starts at $25, so you are saving $10+) in...

kittentraps asked: Hi! I just wanted to say I stumbled upon IZ at a wonderfully coincidental time. I had just written this essay about Sherlock Holmes being the closest I had to an ace character to identify with. So when I saw IZ I had to read it and did so in an hour. The characters are great and the story is, too. I love it so far and now can't wait for updates. :)

And the first page of Neve’s flashback involves them, Ivory, and Hayden at a faerie gathering…with wine. I think you’ll like it.

something entertaining: Webcomicking Advice
chirart:
I get a lot of people asking me for advice, online and offline, about how to go about starting a comic—especially a webcomic. Over many rehashings of the same key points, I have finally condensed my advice to ten points:
Just do it.
No, really. Just do it.
But it’s haaaa-NO, JUST DO…
Agreed.

Anonymous asked: I "stumbled" over Ignition Zero because of an asexual blog and yeah, wow. Thank you! Never ever did I see anyone do something with clearly asexual characters. I still have to read all the pages so far but I'm enjoying it so far. :) <3 Have my platonic love and thanks!

regulateddiscord asked: I just really, really want to thank you for Ignition Zero! It's really good, and I love reading stuff involving queer folk and fey, especially as a queer dude who's slowly writing a novel involving fey! ;w; Your work is just super beautiful!

Finals Week Comic Hiatus
HEY EVERYONE! And especially hello to all my new followers/hopefully readers! I’m so happy to have you around :)
Just letting you all know that the next comic page will be posted on Friday, May 18th due to the fact that I’m currently overloaded with art finals and gallery write-ups. I thought I could handle it, but I was sorely mistaken, so I don’t have any guest comics lined up...
People often ask me what it takes to start a...

The real question is, do you want to start a webcomic because you love making comics, or are you in it for the babes and piles of money?
You have to be in it for the babes and piles of money. That is the only reason to do it. “Liking comics” is not a good reason to start a webcomic.

In the last few months several of our friends have said to us, “I do not know how you handle all of the crap you guys get on the internet.” Most of the time our response to them is, “We do our best to try to ignore it, but it is surprisingly hard.”
I’ll be honest. I was a nerdy kid and I was…
