On newsletters and substack
-
@Yiming-Wu is basically a tumblr. You can post whatever you like. There is a lot of variety because people are experimenting with everything.
But the best thing is you dont need to focus on anything but your newsletter.If you want to send a comic in your newsletter just go at it.
There are many great artists sharing comics here, some write blurbs some don’t. Some just send the daily comic strip, some send a page cut for the scroll (like webtoons) and its all freeThe subscription is just an option (and its what pays the bills for them so the free account users can use it freely

@makekong Wow this is actually so cool! I didn't know this kind of posts also exists on there. I guess I should go explore it a bit
Thank you for the pointers! -
Hey all I'm just looking at this thread now and I'd love to find and follow you all on Substack. I just found Jeremy's which is so much fun to read.
Can't wait to read what you guys have to say over there

Thanks @Kristen-Lango ! I followed yours, too!

@Jeremy-Ross Thanks Jeremy!

@Kristen-Lango @Jeremy-Ross Would I be correct in assuming that newsletters are the new blog? Do you treat your Substack as a blog? I started with blogging when I began exploring childrens illustration and miss that type of community. I am thinking of resurrecting/revamping my old blog, but wonder if it is worth it.

Yep! @tombarrettillo
It’s a great medium for writing and possibly helping others in your community.
-
@tombarrettillo I think that's accurate Tom!
I sort of treat it as a place to explore my own thoughts about the things I'm working on. Would love to follow you on there!
I think you just do it, Substack feels like a really low pressure place to me.

@Jeremy-Ross Thanks!

@Kristen-Lango Thanks! I'll update when I get mine going.
