Today’s Mandala Message: Put Things Away This week I’m working through Principle #28 from Jack Canfield’s “The Success Principles” entitled “Clean Up Your Messes and Your Incompletes”. I set my intention today to ponder the idea of putting things away (to be organized) to make it easier to complete projects. I have a shed converted into a studio that tends to easily get cluttered…mainly because…

Hello again! Sorry if I’m bothering you._ .
But I was wondering if you could give any tips about making a comic or comic series! I really like your comic the missing scarf and it’s inspired me to make my own comic with my oc Flynn! So getting advice from someone as cool as you could be really helpful! Sorry if this is a weird ask ._ . But thank you for reading and tell Mel I said hi! ✨❤️
Hey, Razu! Don’t worry, that’s a really interesting ask actually. Plus I’m glad to finally see you start your own comic, how exciting! I may not be the most qualified person to give tips, but I'll try my best (*´▽｀*)
So, of course, there're the more obvious stuff like practicing drawing the characters, polish up the dialogue etc.
Aside from that, and before you start the drawing process, I can only encourage you to be organized. That'll make your process way more smooth. And trust me, you want to make it as easy as possible.
It usually starts with writing down a script/the outline of your chapter(s) -most artist do it-. Figure out how it begins, where it ends and what happens on each page.
Then comes the "storyboard", following your script (I personally prefer to work on the whole rather than page by page so that I can change/delete/add details at any time.). The drawing doesn't have to be good - my drafts are basically stick men- it just needs to make you notice any big inconsistencies.
Another advice -before the lineart- is to slowly improve the construction and the posings of your characters by working on several layers of rough. As many as necessary. It helps to have more dynamic strokes too! Don't forget to work of the backgrounds too, see if they fit with the action, etc. Lineart comes after that.
There, I think that’s all (?), hope it helped you, even a bit. Feel free to tell me if some parts are unclear -other people interested too!-. It always saddens me to see all the existing OCs around and yet, so few comics about their story. Glad to know that Flynn will have his own!
Good luck ! And of course Mel says hello, hehe

Hello, I want to try and make my own fanzine and I was wondering if you had any tips or advice on the process? Thank you
Of course! Committing to a zine is really exciting and fun, but make sure you know what you’re getting into! I don’t want to make a huge post but here are my personal most important tips when doing a zine:
- It’s always good to start off with an interest poll/post to see who might want to contribute/buy your zine. Go to blogs like zineapps , zine-scene , and fandomzines to help spread the word!
- Google drive is your best friend. Make an email specific to the zine and save all files on the drive. Use Google Forms to collect applications. Make folders for your contributors to put their work in. Use Google Sheet to keep contributor info on one neat form. (If you are organized about your applications you will be more likely to send acceptance AND rejection emails, which is something I feel is important)
- Money is a huge factor in zine making. If there’s a big response or demand for your zine then preorders can be fine. However, make sure to look into things like kickstarter to help raise funds before you purchase the product. Always calculate your estimated cost beforehand. Zines can be very expensive projects so don’t go above and beyond by adding a bunch of merchandise. Physical merch (charms, standees, etc) are harder to account for than printed items (stickers, prints, bookmarks).
- Lastly, know your printing specs! Understand everything from bleed room, to cut line, to kiss-cut vs. die-cut. Make sure you know about CYMK coloring and the differences between using jpg vs png vs psd.
For more information into all the specifics there are many blogs dedicated to helping out first-time zine creators.
A good blog to help you get started is:

ABC, 123 - Organization is the Key
Entrepreneurs are determined to do it all, but that also means they have a to-do list that can rival the length of a highway. Getting organized is essential and the ABC 123 Method may be the ticket.
Let’s face it, as Entrepreneurs – we have A LOT going on at any given point in time! Our to-do lists are long, our priorities fluctuate with industry needs, our cup runneth over with great ideas, products, offers, you name it. Throw in a federal holiday, gimmicky “National Something Day” or a new trend and we will never catch up! The worst feeling in the world (for me at least) is something…
