Some really interesting conversations about RSD (rejection-sensitive dysphoria) going on on my timeline today. It's nice to see.
RSD is frequently dismissed as being oversensitive (and why is that a bad thing? Why is remaining sensitive and soft something we have to condemn), when people with it get our feelings hurt at comments that seem like "nothing".
I do a lot of panels. I've been known to bring an egg timer to make sure I don't dominate the conversation unfairly. I fight to pry open space for quieter, shyer panelists, because everyone should get their time.

Here we are: June 19th. New comic book day, and the release date for THE AMAZING NIGHTCRAWLER issue #5. It's over.
This was always a limited series, part of a gated AU that had a set beginning and end. We didn't get canceled. I told a story in five issues, and finished it, and I'm proud of what I did.
I'm still deeply saddened. When you sign with a traditional literary agent, one of the first things they do is ask you what you want out of your career. This is so they can talk you down if you say you're going to be the next JK Rowling, and so they can go for what you want.

I've been looking at a lot of #comics/GN publishers' submission pages recently and one thing they nearly all have in common is a lack of information about what I, as a creator, might expect from a partnership.
Why would I favour x publisher over y publisher? What do they offer in terms of marketing, events, coverage? These differ greatly from publisher to publisher so wouldn't it make sense to be a bit more explicit?
Both as a story teller and in my main job as a writer of copy, one of my most important skills is to put myself in the position of a reader: what do they not know, and how can I convey it clearly? Publishers could do with a bit of that too!

Okay, so... "The effects of comics, as measured in randomized controlled trials: a rapid review" (osf.io/hmtkp/) is going to change a bit and I'd love some feedback and/or suggestions from the #graphicmedicine @GraphicMedicine @NoetheMatt #comics #fotonovela community.
Basically, I am trying to build a regularly updated database of studies (randomized trials) involving comics (and derivatives, such as mangas, graphic novels, manhwas, webcomics, fotonovelas or bandes dessinées). This database would include summaries of studies and assessments.
In my own jargon this would be a living systematic search, data extraction and risk of bias assessments (with no introduction, no conclusions and no results section). It lies in-between a living systematic review and a repository (eg Cochrane CENTRAL).

COMICS PALS: Working super hard the past few months so have let my comics reading slip in 2018 - can you recommend the best comics, manga, graphic novels you've read this year so I can recalibrate? Prefer contained stories or TPBs rather than ongoing floppies, but have at!
For a sense of my tastes, here's my faves from last year. irishtimes.com/culture/books/…
And here are my favourite comics from the year before (although I cheekily included Adrian Tomine's 2015 masterpiece Killing & Dying because I don't give a fuck about anything). irishtimes.com/culture/art-an…

Ever since I was a kid, I've always built my main rig myself.

The time when that was practical or necessary passed a long while ago, but it was an eccentricity I couldn't ever let go.
Some of it was borne out of the DIY punk rock impulse, some of it out of a sense of craftsmanship, some of it out of overindulgence of a control complex, I always preferred writing code on something that I built myself.
My main rig right now has lasted since 2009 and its retirement is nigh. While Sandy Bridge proved to be a durable platform, the models are finally getting too big to train in a timely fashion.

And this was the first time I paused before starting to look at components.
