Panel 1:
(Narration box:)
The following morning finds Angus in North Fairmount, stocking a safehouse at the request of his employer, the Lethal Librarian…
Angus:
Good morning, ma’am.
Mrs. Elliot:
Now I’ve seen everything! A TALKING COW!
Panel 2:
Angus (clears throat):
Ahem—I am a minotaur, ma’am.
Panel 3:
Mrs. Elliot:
Don’t you go stomping around in there! I have Hummels in the china closet!
Panel 4:
Angus (hesitant):
I… don’t… stomp…
Mrs. Elliot:
You’re brown. Does that mean you give chocolate milk?
Panel 5:
Angus:
That’s a myth, ma’am.
Mrs. Elliot:
Ok… So put me down for a quart of regular and a pint of heavy cream.
Panel 6:
(Angus stomps his hoof in frustration, making a loud THUMP sound.)
Angus (shouting):
I AM NOT A COW!
(A small sound comes from the background: Tinkle.)
Panel 7:
Mrs. Elliot (smirking):
If that’s the little girl feeding ducks, you’re in deep manure, bossy.
Part of my Kickstarter campaign for the
Webcomics Handbook was to offer one-on-one consultations with creators via Skype. I would research their comic and their Web site and prepare a PDF dossier on what I saw, including elements like their social media presence, merchandise, etc. It would be a comprehensive look at what they were doing as a webcartoonist.
Participants received this dossier, and then we’d schedule a one-on-one Skype meeting to discuss my findings. I offered constructive criticism as well as advice, ideas for improvement and workshopped strategy. Finally, the sessions ended with the cartoonist directing the discussion, asking questions, follow-ups and sharing concerns.
These consultations have been overwhelmingly positive experiences, so I decided to continue beyond the Kickstarter.
If you would like to do a one-on-one consultation with me, the breakdown is as follows:
Analysis and one-on-one Skype consultation
The analysis itself is $100. And then the consultation is $100 per hour, with the first 0-60 minutes charged at a flat $100. For every 15 minutes after the first hour, time is accrued at $25. You’d pay upfront for the analysis plus the first hour. And then I would bill you for any time we went over that hour.
Skype consultation only
If you would like to skip the analysis and go right for the one-on-one conversation, the time is charged the same: $100 upfront, plus $25 for every 15 minutes after the first hour (billed afterwards). However, I will be coming into the conversation without having completed research on your comic. It will be up to you to direct the conversation.
