The Terry Pratchett estate has re-opened the refund window for Colleen Doran's almost-finished graphic novel of Good Omens and arranged that "Neil Gaiman will not receive any proceeds from the graphic novel Kickstarter."

Norse Mythology Volume 3

https://library.hrmtc.com/2024/06/17/norse-mythology-volume-3/

Public performance eats art.
True.

Fame doesn’t rub off.
Also True.

Fame doesn’t always pay the bills.
Too True.

This industry doesn’t owe you a living, and it doesn’t pay you to dwell on the past.
Very True.

Most of the people in this industry are garage bands wondering why they’re not the Rolling Stones.
So Very Very True.

Don’t get into comics to get rich. Don’t get into comics for fame. Don’t get into comics for any reason except to make comics.

Fame and money are never a guarantee in the arts, no matter who you are or what you create.

Making your comic is about the truth of your love for the art.

Not about fame. Not about money.

If the audience comes, then yay.

If the audience doesn’t come, you made a comic.

And that’s the hard truth that makes you stronger.

Happy St. Patrick's Day !
#Picture by the wonderful #ColleenDoran. :gnomeHey:

The above article by @ColleenDoran is a very well written, amusing account of a NOT AT ALL amusing business meeting. In her Very Bad Publishers series. #ColleenDoran #graphicnovel #publishing #neilgaiman #frankmiller

Just read #Chivalry by #NeilGaiman and #ColleenDoran and it’s perfect. The story made me smile and the art was a wonderful complement to the words.

I can see why you wanted to do this project Colleen and you did it justice!

@darth_pernicious Coming up to 24 hours and the blasting through has not slowed down at all! Wonder what kind of stretch goals they’ll need to invent by the end of the month 😂
